DC> Well, that explains why you travelled around so much.  

 ml> well, kinda maybe... all _my_ traveling was done when i was in my 20's
 ml> after the divorce and the military... call it a form of self
 ml> preservation and soul seeking... one really learns what one can do

 DC> I did my travelling when I was married,  In hind sight, it would 
 DC> have been a lot more fun had I been single at the time.  

in a way it was... however, i did loose some of myself while in CO... that
one really took a lot out of me... almost cost me my life...

 ml> when one has only one's self to rely on and the land around one... i
 ml> was never a "grizzly adams" but i lived more than my share in the
 ml> "outback"... 

 DC> I think of all the places i lived, Montana was the best.  

i was supposed to be stationed there when i was in the USAF... then the
rules changed as did my marriage :(

 ml> i've started on a partial story of that period of time... dunno how
 ml> far i'll go with it, though... 

 DC> A biography or a fictionalized account?  

kinda both, i 'spect... definitely a true accounting of what happened ;)
