Montana is nice

We found out recently that June is a very good time to visit Montana.  Our good friends, TJ and Libbie Oram, live in the middle of the wilderness about 15 miles from the closest town, Phillipsburg...a town about the size of Dietrich, ID for all of you Idahoans out there.  TJ writes and reviews oil title opinions for big oil outfits and can work from his home.  There are a handful of homes--mostly retired folks--in their area.  So, together with some other law school friends, the Coppins (of DirtyHippyUte fame), we 'camped' in the Oram's very nice home for a few days and were blown away by the sites and beauty of Montana.

The Oram's abode...picture taken from creek that runs at the base of their property.  The creek is stalked with Brown and Rainbow Trout. 
View of guest home adjacent to main residence at the Oram's.  There is a garage and an apartment above it, where we stayed while visiting.  Little kitchenette, nice bathroom, living area and sleeping quarters with a flat screen TV for watching movies (I watched "Remember the Titans" over the course of our visit)...this is definitely my kind of camping.
The ladies inside the main residence.  Very nice and modern home in the midst of some of the prettiest wilderness I've ever scene.  L-R ;Meg, Erin Coppin, Oakley Oram, and Libbie Oram.
