maybe you've read on my sidebar that i'm moving to Montana. our plan is to leave here in five months. i've worried about what life will be like there. i live in the desert of Arizona. the weather will be a huge change. we'll have more animals to take care of (3 dogs versus horses, chickens and a goat). there will be new challenges. i'm leaving a lot of good friends behind.
i know it will be tempting to think, "why did i leave?" i know i will have to make an effort to live in the present and not yearn for the past.
Don't let the past steal your present. ~Terri Guillemets

The only piece of advice I'll give you, is to make sure you have a roll of toilet paper in the car when you start your adventure. Also a couple of blankets, a flashlight and a gallon or two of water. (On top of what you think you'll need for the dogs.) Getting to Montana is full of mountains and when I lived in the mountains, tp, blankets, light, and water were essential in a car ALL THE TIME. Even once you get there, keep these in your trunk.
Those are lovely quotes, Michelle. I know next to nothing about Montana, but good luck with the move!
Embrace this move. I'm thinking Robert Redford and Horse Whisperer. Go for it Michelle.
