Heck, I'm married to one, and so are the three cousins who ranch in our area (for the record, our spouses are from South Dakota, Long Island, upstate New York and someplace in Sweden I can't pronounce). It's those of the David Letterman/Ted Turner mindset who come in determined to show us Montanans what the west is really supposed to be like that drive us nuts. From what I saw of Minnesota during my years as a South Dakota flatlander, I assume you truly feel our pain.

What we don't love is the people who move in and immediately start trying to change our laws and our landscape to suit their taste and their vision of what Montana is supposed to be.
