Montana Mountainess

Hi guys!

I have always wanted to be one of those outdoorsy adventurous people you see on the REI commercials.
But, instead of accomplishing my goals or dreams, I usually would tell myself, "Oh, I'm not fit enough, confident enough, healthy enough, strong enough, rich enough.......

Anywho, those days of excuses are long gone. I am officially a mountain woman!!!!

    CONGRATS!!! I was just thinking today that I moved away from Montana 10 years ago, this month. I miss it so much, and your pics make me miss it even more. The good news? When I go back to visit next time, I'll be able to do more hiking than I've done in the past, as I'll be more fit! :-)

  • That is some beautiful Montana Mountaness indeed!! I am glad that you are confident enough to enjoy our beautiful back yard!!! I have been more willing and happy to go enjoy the great mountainess since becoming heathier as well. I love my Montana mountains and now my body can keep up with the mountains. What a wonderful reward for getting into shape. LOVE IT!!!

    Wonderful! You look very happy and fit. I've got ties to MT as well, love it there & can't wait to get back as a fit, energetic mountain woman myself.

    It was a beautiful state with lovely people!

    As soon as I get the chance, I will finally move away from the flat and boring Illinois and head over to some mountains... get myself a mountain man. haha!

    I loved Montana. I went to Chico Hot Springs - amazing little hole-in-the-wall resort. It was rustic and simple and just plain gorgeous...I can't wait to go back.
