 I
moved to Bozeman in 1982 to attend MSU.
Like many, once I came here to go to school, I didn’t
want to leave. When
I’m able to get paint off my brain, I enjoy socializing with
friends while snow skiing, mountain biking, hiking, fishing,
hunting, camping, playing hockey, water skiing, climbing
mountains, tying flies and maybe a beer or two.
Am I ever going to grow up?
I sure hope not. BACK
