Today we celebrate the Treasure State. Today is 4/06 a.k.a Montana Day. So what can we do to celebrate? How about taking a drive and exploring places of this great state that you may have taken for granted? Maybe grill a steak from one of the millions of cattle Montana raises. Eat wheat bread made from the thousands of acres of wheat Montana grows. Raise a glass of beer and toast to the barley and hops grown right here in Montana. Or maybe go get a scoop of Huckleberry ice cream.

When you think about Montana, what other things come to mind?
