Don loved living in Montana, because of all the outdoor activities it offered. He loved to travel in his motorhome with Bonnie and their dachshunds. He enjoyed camping, snowmobiling, motorcycle riding, four wheeling, and fishing in Kings Hill and the Middle Fork Ranch area. He was also one heck of a softball player! One of his favorite pastimes was socializing with friends, family and TALKING about all those good times he had, with a cold beer in his hand.
