Anybody from Philipsburg?
I went there last year hoping to find some Fesslers but no Fesslers were listed in the phone book.
They had a ranch next to Gary Cooper's.
Not from that area--but I always thought Gary Coopers ranch was near Helena (which is a long ways from Philipsburg- other side of the Continental Divide)- anyway thats what the Highway signs on I-15 north of Helena indicate....
His dad was a Montana Supreme Court Justice- so that would fit living close to Helena....
Oh no! All these years I've been telling people that I saw Gary Cooper's cows.
Sigh. Maybe he had two places? I can't think Myrna F was lying.
Probably safest for me to drop the cow tale and just tell about how my dad talked guns with Gary Cooper one time, my other proudest story.
