Met Doug and Karen Campbell today.
« on: July 28, 2011, 02:02:00 AM »
Been on a road trip for the past week. While traveling through Montana stopped for a quick visit with Doug and Karen. Doug and Karen are two of the nicest folks you will ever meet.

 

The 5500 acre ranch surrounded by the majestic mountain ranges was just breathtaking.


 


They welcomed us into their lovley home with kindness and hospitality.

Doug and Karen took time out of their busy schedul to give us a tour of the ranch.

 

 

 

 

After a delicious lunch which included elk sausage that we tried for the first time, we had to say our goodbyes and get back on the road headed to Washington state.

Thank you so much for a great day Doug and Karen. It will be a day that wont be forgotten. Have safe travles this weekend.

Wow what a beautiful location. I miss Montanna. Need to get back there. Thank you for sharing Larry. Brings back good memories.

I've only dealt with Doug on a knife deal but let me say a finer gentleman you won't meet. Good people for sure.

Oh wow, talk about jealous.  Meeting the Cambells and hanging out in Montana.  

Two things on my bucket list.  

Way to go Larry.  You are leading the good life after retirement.

Very nice that you could make the connection, Larry.  Looks like beautiful country, a lovely home, and great people!

Looks like the place is filled with interesting articles that would carry wonderful stories.  The elk statue is amazing, too!

What kind of Jeep-thingy is that in the pictures?  I've never seen one like it.

Larry....sorry we had to miss you.   Not enough "heads-up" and a full day planned.   Doug and Karen are two or our favorite people, and a prettier place to visit is tough to find.  Enjoy your trip!

Thanks Larry and everybody else, the pleasure was all ours. Course y'all already know it but Larry is good folks and it was a pleasure meeting Renee, his daughter-in-law also. Hope the rest of your trip is smooth sailing.
