Someone once said the first year of work is the freshman year of life. For me, no truer words have been written. The year-and-a-half spent working in a small market television station four decades ago was one of the most significant periods of my life. I worked as a news reporter, met a man who taught me the game of chess along with some important principles for living, and I married the woman who has been with me ever since. Mixed in with these personal stories are the real life news and sports stories of the period of time from mid-1979 through the fall of 1980. Mount St. Helens, the Carter/Reagan presidential race, the American Hostages in Iran, the US Olympic Hockey team miracle on the ice, and many other events left an indelible mark on many of us. Come back with me to Binghamton, New York. It's 1979 and we're about to embark on a truly incredible journey.

The Nelson A. Rockefeller Empire State Plaza is the largest state government office complex in the United States. It took over ten years to build, at a cost of over two-billion 1960s dollars. The project was conceived and started by Governor Rockefeller, with the state legislature seemingly helpless to reign in the scope and costs. Criticized by some as big government spending gone awry, it nonetheless kept thousands of union tradesmen working for well over a decade. One of those legislators concerned about the growing project pursues her own pathway to the state's highest office. Among those working on the project is a family of carpenters from northern New York who join thousands of other tradesmen from all over the state to make this big dream a reality. This is a fictionalized account of the ups and downs of a blue collar family, a Republican Governor, and a Democrat legislator on her way up. They all are dreaming big. Find out whether those dreams will come true.
