Heyday
on the
High
Plains:
I
receive an invitation to join
Donnie Sexton and her cohort
Molly Ambrogi to join them and
three journalists on a jaunt "to semi-
secret prairie lands" in June. Donnie,
head of Media Relations, is also the
(excellent) photographer for the Mon-
tana Office of Tourism. Molly works at
Mercury Communications. I leap at the
chance as I don't know much about
eastern Montana. Here at the magazine
we always want to include more articles
about eastern Montana, so this is an
excellent chance to get ideas.
The bright threads of this trip are
genial people, Lewis & Clark spots, the
meanderings of the Yellowstone & Mis-
souri Rivers, and Montana's historical
past blended with its present.
