Hi and welcome, Rene'.  I love Montana; have relatives there, but it has been a long time since I visited.  Yellowstone is like Eden .  I would love to live in a place like Montana; 'But', it is waaaay too cold , for me, in the winter.  Please feel free to share any stories, observations, Montana ideals, etc., as you please.........................
