Hello,

I know we have all been concerned with the fires that roared across Montana and other western states.

I had the opportunity to witness some of the devastation first hand on Friday.

On Friday morning, in a nice rain, I drove down to Bowman and met a friend to go to a horse sale in Great Falls. It was raining nice at home. And from here to Bowman and then northwest to Great Falls, we never shut the wipers off! 525 miles with the wipers on in western North Dakota and eastern Montana. That may happen only once in a lifetime. When I was young, it would have been a nail-straightening day....
