See you in Helena and Missoula

 I hope to see you at the Mountain-Plains Museums Association Meeting at the Red Lion Colonial in Helena tomorrow, 10/19, 12:15-1:15. I'll speak on "State Humanities Councils and Museums: A Perfect Partnership." And this Friday, 8 am (bright and early), I'll present on "Humanities Montana in the Schools: A New Compact" in Missoula at the College of Technology, AD 06 during the MEA-MFT Educators' Conference.
