North Dakota

When people hear "North Dakota," one word comes to mind: COLD! But when I hear "North Dakota," different words "pop" into my head.

Security: I have lived in Hoople, ND, my entire life, and never once have I regretted this place. Living in a town of 320 people one develops a sense of security. I don't think that there are a lot of places where a person can leave his/her house unlocked, or walk to the neighbors to borrow something and not think twice about the safety of those actions.

Unity: Small towns and communities bring together a sort of unity that big cities could never experience. Growing up in a small school has its advantages. There is always time for one-on-one attention from teachers when I need extra advice on a project. Close relationships between students and teachers develop in small schools as well. I know people who don't know half of the kids in their classes, which to me is unbelievable considering I know everything about everyone in my school. With this I know I can turn to anyone in the school for help because we are all friends.

Scenery: It may be cold here in the winter, but when summer comes, it is a totally different scenario. On warm summer nights we can sit outside and look at the northern lights, which are very easy to see without all the city lights. Rolling hills of beautiful farm land cover most of the landscape, and if you haven't seen 160 acres of potatoes blooming, you are missing one of our most beautiful sights.

Peaceful: My brothers and I grew up in a fishing and hunting environment. These are just two of the greatest recreations North Dakota has to offer. When it is not hunting season, we can be found sitting on the deck watching geese fly south for the winter, deer graze the plowed field, and ducks land on the river. It truly is a peaceful site.

Hey Raul - saw you here and wanted to say hey! What did you think of that Pens game last night? I will catch up with you later on the Ovie board. I am watching the Steelers game right now - they are winning! It has been a great weekend for sports for me - Yankees win - Pens win and the Steelers are winning!

Take care my friend and talk with you soon!

Don't listen to them. Zach and Alisha are still going strong.

This website is nothing but false statements and opinions. Funny to see it pop up, when you type in "Zach Parise's girlfriend."
