I wouldn't mind spending some vacation time in Montana, especially after
reading Norman Maclean's wonderfully descriptive writings.

Montana is nice but good accommodations are particularly pricy. You
jump straight from the "Super 8" to $300 a night in the places we
were. There are lots of wild woods camping opportunities tho if that
works for you. Yeah me neither ;-)
There are lots of great hiking trails but you have to look for them.
They are not all that well documented. If you like falling water and
walking on trails by yourself it is worth looking.

Sounds like a great place to take an RV.

Yup there are plenty of opportunities to go off the grid for a night
or two and then get to a full service park to freshen up the RV.



The maid doesn't come into the RV the morning, make up the beds, vacuum,
clean the bathroom, take out the trash?

In an RV, doing all that takes only about a half hour. Not worth
hiring a maid for.


Ahh, so there is more time to order breakfast from room service!

We rented houses in Montana and we did not get any of those things.
Plenty of room to spread out tho and lots of privacy.

Our nearest neighbor in Paradise Valley. (near Yellowstone)

This is the house we rented in Bad Rock (near Glacier NP)

We have done both. Nice place to visit as long as it is not winter. My
parents and brother are from Western Nebraska. Actually a very interesting
area. The sand hills. But mom stated it was -42f one day where she grew
up. About 8 miles from Henry, NE 1.5 miles from the Wyoming border. No
thanks. Born and raised in the Berkeley, CA. It got maybe 29f once a year
and that was cold enough. As to RV etc. have had both RV and truck
camper. Both are nice. Truck camper gives good mobility, back roads
areas. And cheaper than hotels. And I do treat the wife to B&B's on our
trips.
