Its intereting that the second paragraph mentioned Libby, Montana.

When I was a kid I went to a National Boy Scout Jamboree (think really big summer camp) in Idaho. On the way there, our bus full of Boy Scouts broke down near Libby, Montana. Repairs would take something over 24 hours.

A church in Libby arranged to take the entire bus full of Scouts - in small groups - housing them in peoples' homes for the night. I stayed in a home with three other boys. We had fresh trout and pancakes for breakfast, and they took us on a tour of the local plywood factory the next day. Amazing people that won't ever be forgotten.

A few years back I mentioned to my wife that Libby might be a place to retire to. My wife did some internet searching only to find Libby to be a hotspot for asbestos-related illness and death. Apparently asbestos contaminated vermiculite dust - from a local vermiculite mine - contaminated the entire area.

We're still looking around for that final resting place - so to speak.
