I sure miss being there. I also have lived in your home state of MT, big sky country and pretty nice people. I lived in Great Falls for a little over a year on the Air Force base. I have to tell you it is a beautiful friendly state. But you have to be an outdoor kind of a person to live there. I wasn't. I couldn't wait to get back to the east coast. I am more of a city suburb type person. I like to hop on the train and go all the way to NY for the day or drive about 1 hr away to DC or VA. There is so much to see and do. Now MT is so open. Such beauty and to see the wild animals was something. Oh we had a friend and his family that always went fishing. My the fish was just great. They always had so much left over and they would give us some. We sure enjoyed it.
