| It was a great time, Angie. We had a blast, what a great event. In fact, just for the venues in Montana, I think that whole state has a chance of really creating quite the draw moving forward. I was honored to have had the chance to cook with Upnsmokin' and the BC2 boys. Always learn something new. |
