A wonderfully poignant note from Group Two’s Ken “Strip” Petrilla:
Ron,
Thank you for your very nice e-mail and many thanks for including me in this year’s Extravaganza.
I liked everything about my time in Montana. The beauty of Montana, the rivers, the wildlife and the “attitude” of the State. The personality of Montana and Montanans are obvious for all to see and enjoy. Add to that fishing, good food, good wine, good cheer, your superb organizational skills and, most of all, wonderful comradery and you have a formula for fun and enjoyment that is hard to duplicate. We also did something worthwhile by contributing to the Montana Natural History Center and Montana Matters so that in addition to the good time, I felt that I made a small contribution to helping preserve Montana. All in all, it was a fantastic five days.
Thank you and best personal regards.
Ken
