Hi Ron/Kathy
I have spent my entire  life in the West and was 23 years old before I made it as far east in the U.S.  as Colorado, when in 1993 I followed the woman who was to be my wife of now  almost 15 years. My family homesteaded in Mellstone, MT six generations ago, my  grandparents were married in Red Lodge, MT, my parents both grew up in Coeur  d’Alene, ID and I grew up in Oregon. I love and am imbued with the west and  getting to spend time in one of the few corners I hadn’t yet visited was a real  privilege. As I have said to many people, this past few days will be cherished  for the rest of my life. It’s not too often we get the pleasure of getting or  giving a gift like that. 
Your hospitality was  Extravagant to the point of embarrassing. 
I am so grateful to  have been a part of this
With abundant  thanks
Duane
