Welcome aboard Mr. Bates, I went to college in NY and worked there for a bit, it's where I met my wife. She actually owns a house adjacent to her Mom's property which has some acreage with available acreage next to it, that's near Rochester. I know the Eastern part of the state as well. When the assault rifle ban met its sunset a few years back, NY had their own. The day I moved back to Maine (where I'm from) I put the telescopic stock on my AR-15, it still had to be fixed in NY. NY has a poor political climate, at least Maine has better gun laws. The thing that really caught my attention about Montana was this recent House Resolution declaring state rights, the one allowing guns made in Montana, for sale and use in Montana, won't require a federal background check.

Chances are, I'm stubborn and I'm just going to stand and fight where I am.

Yesterday I saw the neatest sight- a west bound Burlington Northern freight train sitting on a siding- made up completely of flat cars carrying the huge white vanes for wind turbines...Each blade took up 3 1/3 flat cars overlapping---and the entire train was blades as far as I could see...


those blades unloaded about 40 miles from here over by ethridge and went up on Torgerson llc land. someone said he gets over 150K just to have to look at them. i wonder how he sleeps with that noise and those flashing red lights at night - i think i'd get used to it.

For 150K I could get very used to it....Just like I wouldn't even complain if I had one of those dirty oil well horseheads pumping day and night on my lawn Wink
