Einar's Story
After Har-Brack I finished college in my hometown Mo i Rana ( 100 km south of the artic circle), met my wife Martha, joined the army for one year and served the last 6 months on the Russian border in the the northernmost part of Norway. A tense period during the Cold War it was indeed.
I studied law and banking at Oslo University for 2 years and started as a trainee at a comercial bank in Mo i Rana. Martha and I married in 1966, got a girl in 1968 and boy in 1973. My daughter Anne has given us the two grandchildren. Our son Johan is singel living in Oslo working for a US dental firm.
During my banking career we have been living in several norwegian towns - and in London for two years, (82/84) In the City I worked as manager in a merchant bank.
I retired in september 2002 and have since lived in Mosjøen 100 km south of my native M...Expand for more
o i Rana.
As you probably remember from Har-Brack I participated in several sports. Back in Norway I made a sporting career in track, soccer, speedskating, cross-country skiing and road cycling.
I am still an active road cyclist. I have 3 times completed the longest cycling race in Scandinavia - some 560 km. from Trondheim to Oslo. 1!7 hours is my personal best.. I do use my bicycle to keep fit and probably healthy (non smoker, but wine lover)
My wife is also retired. This gives us plenty of time to travel. Spain and France are favorites. We also spend much time in our mountain cottage built some 30 years ago.
As for the 50th reunion, I do hope there will an opportunity for me - and Martha - to visit Natrona Heights.
