Livingston MT

Livingston was the big city for me - Roundup MT has a pop <2000 and Whitehall has a pop <2000 and Livingston has a pop >7500. I only have a couple of memories of from before Livingston. One was from Roundup (I actually have been back and seen the hill) from about age 3 0r 4; I was on a hill with my brother and another kid throwing rocks down on cars driving by. A cop car came by so we turned to run, I tumbled down the hill and onto the road; my memory (of a memory of a memory) is of a giant jumping over cars to scoop me up and take me to the hospital. The other was from Whitehall - there was/is a ditch that runs along the street in front of our house but on the other side. For some reason, rather than cross the ditch by bridge I jumped down into and up out the other side. I was using my hands to pull myself up the far bank when I cut my thumb on a tin can - man there was blood everywhere (I still have the scar on my left thumb and that was about 56 years ago).
