Who are the players in Montana. I know of Gibson Hartwell here in Missoula and Dick Chapelle (sp?). Anyone else?

Hey Richard, here in Missoula we also have David Horgan and Aaron Jennings. Also Dave Martens is up on the Highline. The Livingston/Bozeman area always has a few good steel players around. Lots of straight Steelers are always hiding out in our excellent bluegrass scene. I still need to make it out to see you!

Oh yeah, also Louie Armentaro in Livingston who has claims on being the oldest steeler n the world. Quite a character, that guy.

It's really not that bad. It's gotten as low as 9 degrees, but that doesn't feel as cold as the high 20's where I lived in California. But, driving in the snow sucks.

The Texas thing fell through. That was a real disappointment.
