That is why I was in Montana last week. My keynote presentation on &#8220;Searching for the Wizard of Oz&#8221; was designed to kick off the year-long celebration. While I planned to challenge the Montana Farm Bureau, I found from my research, that they were doing a lot of good things already. They have their act together.<\/p>\n<p>It was a tad cold in Montana and there were snow flurries while I was there. I was pleased that my flight home was not canceled. On my last two trips, my flights home were canceled\u00a0because of hurricanes in North Carolina.
