Do you know of or live in Stevensville Montana?

I moved to Stevensville a couple of years ago from Colorado. It is a delightful place. It has a real sense of community with an active downtown that comes alive every "First Friday" with the stores staying open late -- past 5:00. Many active civic organizations including the Stevensville Art and Sculpture Society who sponsors a number of arts related activities -- including the Scarecrow Festival which has grown steadily in popularity and community participation since its inception two years ago.

The community has recently raised funds for the second community sculpture project to place public art in the town. The city was very cooperative in providing a site for the sculpture. There is an active Main Street association and Civic Club which focusses on downtown business development and othe community projects.

There is a quality about Stevensville -- about Montana -- that is different from other places I've been including Colorado. It is more than just friendly -- it is also very respectful. People treat each other with respect and acknowledge each other. It is welcoming. We have more friends now than we have ever had. We're very happy there and very glad we live there.

My wife works in Missoula which is 25 miles away. It is a bit of commuting hassle but she takes the van. It's worth it to live in "The Valley" (Bitterroot, that is)

I could go on -- and on -- but I'll leave it at that.

I lived there in Stevensville in '96 for a while on Houk Way in 1/2 of a duplex. it was a beautiful place! I loved it there. Finding a decent job was difficult and I ended up leaving for a better opportunity but sometimes I wish I stayed.

Anyone been to the LoLo Steakhouse in LoLo Creek on the way to Missoula? That place was AWESOME! How about LoLo Hotsprings? I used to know the guy that built the hotel up there back then. that was a great place too.
