Bitterroot

By Amy Martin. This is one of my go-to songs when I feel tired and blue and achey. Somehow it helps.

It’s mine too.

She mentions Rattlesnake Creek! I live a block from that creek. I’m listening to it rush right now...

Lived on Woodlawn Avenue. Best place ever to grow up in. Really miss the zoo town.

I went to Target Range too. I lived on Sundown Road...up on McCauley Butte. I can’t even believe this. 😳

I’m feeling like I’m in the twilight zone, LOL! Small world!

P.S. every summer I used to climb up that butte to the top....could see the whole city from the flat rock area on top...

Small world to be sure!! Obviously I still live here...😏

I loved that flat rock area on the top of the butte. Bitterroots grew there in the spring and prickly pear cactus in late summer. I used to run up there and spend the day so I could escape my mom making we work in the garden. My parents lived there until 2009. I know folks that still live on Woodlawn to this day. This is crazy! What would be the odds? I’m betting we know a bunch of the same people.
