Travel has a whole new meaning these days. Venturing out of the house has never felt so good--even the kiddos are sick of their screens!

When COVID-19 hit Montana, residents took notice. Following the state directives for sheltering in place, Montanans hunkered down and kept their distance throughout the spring. Streets were silent, snow was still falling, and we were patient. It paid off, and today, Montana enjoys the lowest number of cases per capita in the nation. We also have plenty of room to roam, which has made life somewhat more comfortable. There may not have been cars on the road, but there were boots on the trails as people made sure to enjoy the outdoors, which is what draws all of us here.

Spring is here, and needless to say so is the need to get some fresh air, exercise, and peace of mind.
