Does anyone know why the town chose to use a pyramid and camels in their new Welcome sign, as shown in Mike's writeup? I've yet to see either of those things at the Q. Seems to me it should be coyotes and mesquite bushes.

Agree! We enjoyed our first year with the Montana group - 8 days boondocking - great shower on Day 9 when we had FHU again!

Thanks, MelinProv. I've since added a paragraph explaining this bit of history.
