It’s not often that I participate in a board/staff retreat where part of the orientation is “before hiking, pick up bear spray and travel in groups of 4 or more to keep the grizzly bears at a distance.”
Just got back from a retreat with Women’s Voices for the Earth. So for this Monday, a quote about Montana was a have to…
“Before Alaska came along and ruined everything, one of every twenty-five square miles in America was Montanan. This much space has nurtured a healthy Cult of Place in which people find perfection, even divinity in the landscape.”
