[Spridgets] NMC: Tillamook Cheese and rad VW bus

[Rick Bastedo]

I graduated from Neah-Kah-Nie High School in 1977.
Worked on farms around Nehalem & Mohler from the time I was 11 up to about
19.
Then I decided there had to be a better way to make a living than living in
cowshit.
I'm up in Snoqualmie Washington for the past 22 years, no more cows.
Before that, Seattle. Before that, Alaska.
But I love the cheese, and it's nice to be able to get the ice cream and
butter at the grocery store.
