A Wide Irrigated Valley Runs South from Bozeman. To Cottonwood Canyon.
“From the town to the mountains across the valley floor must be less than ten miles, and we cross that distance now on dirt roads through rich green high alfalfa ready for cutting, so thick it looks difficult to walk through. The fields sweep outward and slightly upward to the base of the mountains where a much darker green of the pines rises suddenly up. That will be where the DeWeese’s live. Where the light green and the dark green meet.“
Gallatin Gateway, MT. This road is called 19thStreet in Bozeman, but is called =Route 19 South once you get out of town. Continued from previous photo: The DeWeese family live 12 miles South of Bozeman, and their address in the town of Gallatin Gateway, MT. So it isn’t surprising in 1968, that the DeWeese phone number was not in the Bozeman phone directory. Nor surprising that the operator did not know them. New topic: When the Narrator can't get the DeWeese phone number he gets a “panicky feeling“, and has to calm down with coffee before he can deal with the problem. Persons who have lived very, very, stressed lives will sympathize with the panic feeling brought on by a series of too many new challenges. Hi-stressed persons, like myself, instantly recognize the need for calming effects of a pause for rest with food & coffee etc.
