Note from a Landsnorkeler:

This is a great idea you folks have. As a born and bred Montana boy I am now a retired Civil Engineer and have been pursuing watercolors for the last 15 years and recently acrylics after a Glacier Park workshop with John Poon. I especially liked reading Clyde's thought on finding the little sanctuaries, "hidey holes" if you will. I do this, but never found anyone that understood it before. I delight in just sitting down and looking at a little refuge spot in the timber, or getting way out in the wide open west of the Bears Paw mountains, where I've been going antelope hunting for 35 years.I can relate to your 17 day trip to Denver.Once I left Big Sandy, headed for Helena. Stopping to sketch and photograph old homesteads, and writing poetry as it came into my head (I'm a Cowboy Poet), it took me 3 1/2 hours to get to Great Falls!Thanks for your work among us here in Montana.- John C.
