All I want is warm days, cool nights, miles of open space, and a good horse underneath me. Someplace like the western part of the Dakotas or the eastern part of Wyoming or Montana would be perfect. Does anyone know of a *working* ranch in that part of the country that will take paying guests for a week or so? I ride well enough to participate in the work of a ranch, although I don't know anything about roping cattle and such. I'd be embarassed to be seen on a dude ranch and ashamed to admit that I had been to one, so, please, no pointers to "resort ranches" and such. If you don't know of a place like I've described, do you know the addresses of the tourism departments for the states of North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, or Montana? I have lots of time: I'm planning this for late summer '86. Thanks in advance. Carl Deitrick ihnp4!iham1!cbd Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
