When the Sky Stopped Me


If you live in Montana, you must accept the fact you will experience times when you are driving someplace and the sky will stop you.
While driving across the valley the other day, this very thing happened to me. After taking a turn I have taken thousands of times before without thought, the sky struck me.  I found the next available turnout, pulled off the road, got out of my truck, and stood there just trying to take it in.  A sky so broad, so blue, and so clear even the boldest hawks refused to lift against it.
I stood there for several minutes, smiling.
