  @stephkf where in Montana are you? Montana holds a very special place in my heart. Both my parents were raised in Billings and I have family all over the state.
  
  That is pretty cool that you worked at a zoo. I always thought it would be fun to be a zoo vet, but then I realized how limited the job field is and most of my patients would be asleep. Still really neat though. Horses are a good lead in to marine and zoo fields.
