“But the wind has a different smell here. In North Dakota it always smelled like dirt. Even in the middle of winter with all that snow there could still be the smell of dirt in the air. As if the wind came from some open place that never froze. But here (Montana) the wind smells like the mountains. Like snow. Like stone. No matter how far away the mountains are, I sill fell them out there. I can't get used to it. I never will. I guess I'm a flatlander at heart.”

“I think all people have things in their past they need forgiveness for. In their present as well. And they need to be extended grace for what they regret.”
