steve1 5 #76 November 3, 2003 Missoula, Montana is where I was born and raised. It's where the book and movie, "A River Runs Through It" supposedly took place. The Indians called it the land of the stinking air even before the pulp mill was built (something to do with temperature inversions). Beautiful in the Spring, Summer, and Fall and has a high suicide rate in the winter......Steve1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
