Hello from Montana

Hi Tracy,

I've lived in Nebraska too, and I do prefer western Montana. The climate is milder and the scenery is spectacular. I live south of Stevensville. How did you end up in Nebraska? I still like parts of Nebraska, I lived in the NE corner of the state, and that is where I learned to carve leather.

Hi Olive,

Looks like you learned really well from some great teachers. I would love to have had a chance to have met Kat. She did some really neat and original projects. You dont happen to have any pictures of her or her work do you?

Welcome to LW. I'll be looking forward to seeing more from you.

Hi! Welcome to the forum! You beautiful work I happen to be from the plentywood, mt area. You have the -25 weather too?

Hey, not to hijack this thread, but I lived in Antelope till I was 5 or 6. We used to go to Plentywood on Saturdays to get groceries and spend our weekly nickel.

Hi Clay,

I have some old photographs of one of Kat's pieces titled Spring in the Beartooths - a fantastic picture of a dead grizzley and mountain man with a little snow partly covering them. I'd have to hunt for it and see if I could scan it.

Thank you for your comments, I still have a long ways to go to be near as good as Kat was.

[Hi Kaci,

No I'm in the Montana tropic zone. It is plus 5 degrees right now.

Please bundle up.
