In this episode, we will hear my discussion with Nan, a 59-year-old woman from Montana.  Nan was born in Havre, Montana, a city of about 9,000 people.  She grew up and lived her entire adult life in Havre, but recently she and her husband embarked on a nomadic life mostly outside the United States.  Nan discusses her upbringing in the household of her Italian grandparents, her career as a nurse, and life in a small town.
