Hi, IA¢a¬a¢m Leroy Lightning, but IA¢a¬a¢m known to most as Murph! IA¢a¬a¢ve been told by many I should put my life outdoors experiences and memories in writing. A writer IA¢a¬a¢m not, a storyteller I am. IA¢a¬a¢ve told people about something I did in the past and they said A¢a¬Awow, that brings back good memories. We used to do that all the time and IA¢a¬a¢ve almost forgot about it until you brought it up.A¢a¬A Not me, IA¢a¬a¢m still doing it! I have a lot of pictures, but they really donA¢a¬a¢t tell the real story, they just make good points, or proof if you will, because A¢a¬Abelieve it or else,A¢a¬A I have witnesses. It didnA¢a¬a¢t take me long in my outdoor life to learn it wasnA¢a¬a¢t just the kill, the trophies, the big fish, or the trip if you didnA¢a¬a¢t have a long-lasting memory with a really good story to go with it. Please keep in mind I can spend day after days in the hills without hunting or fishing and enjoy every minute, every beauty, the trees, and the birds. ThereA¢a¬a¢s no end to it, you just need to go see for yourself. What you read from here forward, the names have been limited to first name only to protect the guilty, not for reason to hide, but more for privacy. If I can inspire a young person or family to enjoy what so many of us living in the land of opportunities have, IA¢a¬a¢d be a happy person. Even more so, to get some attention to preserve what Montana has to offer. What IA¢a¬a¢m saying is, I havenA¢a¬a¢t done what many others havenA¢a¬a¢t, IA¢a¬a¢m just not sure they enjoyed it as much as I have. ItA¢a¬a¢s been pretty much my life with real meaning, and IA¢a¬a¢m sure my children will pass it on to their children, and thatA¢a¬a¢s already started. IA¢a¬a¢ve been known to make up words, in fact IA¢a¬a¢m really good at it. So, if you can get past the bad grammar and my dry sense of humor, I hope you will enjoy this as much as I enjoyed doing it. I canA¢a¬a¢t write or tell about all of my outings, so IA¢a¬a¢m just going to touch on the stories with a lot meaning to me! I hope you will find them interesting. Just one more thingA¢a¬amy real education is life- long experience, and I have a masterA¢a¬a¢s degree from the School of Hard Knocks.

Lori, the heroine of this rousing narrative, is attempting to flee the hectic East Coast for a better life in the West. She is a child of the Seventies who feels misled by the rebellious "boomer" generation and disappointed with life in 1980s New Jersey. Spurred by the tale of her pioneering grandparents, who immigrated to Montana, and following her friend Madeleine, who has all the answers, Lori quits her job, loosens her ties, and sets off into a wild frontier. Lori's story is one of love for people and for places that are more mythic than real. Her pursuit is as painfully familiar as it is impossible: she seeks meaning in life while working dead-end jobs, falls in love with uninterested partners, and plans a future that seems doomed from the start. Somehow, though, she persists and ultimately finds her place as a twenty-first-century pioneer.
