From Morocco to Montana...with love
I (Rita Collins) am a contributor for Visit NW Montana and right now I'm visiting mystical, majestic Morocco! Sandi said the story would need to relate Morocco to Montana and at first I couldn't imagine how this would be possible. It is surely not the architecture nor religions. The culture is quite different. And although I drink coffee each morning whether in Montana or Morocco, the coffee in a Moroccan cafe is so strong that it surprises me daily. But in both places there are good people who will point you in the right direction when you are lost. In both Morocco and Montana there are individuals who are so connected to the place they call home that they can't imagine living elsewhere.
5 Tips for Surviving the Season of Giving
Well, you made it through Thanksgiving. How's your stress level? Welcome to that time of year when the stress meter breaks.

And oftentimes, with so much expected, some people just want to check out for a month (ala Skipping Christmas and Christmas with the Kranks).
Horse Drawn Sleigh Rides
Come travel with us the pioneer way. Let the shiny red sleigh of Ora-Jay and Irene Eash, formerly Amish farmers from northwest Montana, gently glide you through the quiet, glistening snow as the jingling of the bells take you away into a time long past.

A Christmas Carol...it's Time to Sing!
Carolers have been known to travel on foot, by truck or in a horsedrawn wagon...Close your eyes and listen for the bells. Imagine the snow falling softly in the cozy glow of evening. Expect the smell of evergreen. You've arrived at a place somewhere between your heart and soul: the world of Christmas songs.
