HE WIND SHAPES US. THOSE WORDS
ECHOED THROUGH MY HEAD AS I
STOOD BRACED AGAINST THE GUSTS OF
COLD AIR THAT WHIPPED MY HAIR INTO
A FRENZY. I had driven up Looking Glass
(Highway 49) to revisit the lay of the land.
It had been almost two years since I called this
small Montana town home.
Curvy mountain roads, often impass-
able in winter, create an air of isola-
tion around the town of East Glacier

Wind
Shapes
Us"
