Marrying Montana

An unlikely pair of widows, one from the upper crust of the big City of Boise, and one from the ranch country of Montana, met on the Internet and embarked on a life-changing thrill ride.

Gail, on speaking term with the Idaho Governor, drove a Lexus, and Robert, on speaking terms with his dog and some cows, in his red Ford F250, met for a date in Idaho Falls and the fun began!

Follow this tale, told by Miss Gail’s blogs and Cowboy’s clever answers as he woos his lover and tempts her to leave her country club environs for the wilds of Montana.

Perfume, travel, adventure, romance and Paris! Wahoo! They broke the rules, fell in love, traveled the world seeking adventures, looking to love, laugh and live, regardless of what tomorrow brings.

Their second chance at romance, they dream, they travel, they write, always exploring. Join them in their adventures: Two real people really living.

Wahoo! What a ride!

Gail Cushman and Robert “Cowboy Bob” Mitchell

Gail used to be an Idaho girl, but now she’s a Montana girl, married to a Cowboy, owns a pickup, and has a dog. It doesn’t get better than that!

She’s a Vietnam Era Marine veteran, serving as a pay officer. She taught high school, served as principal and superintendent of four school districts, and was Director of Education for the Idaho’s Department of Correction. Along the way, she married, had two kids, and traveled.

Born in Idaho, now transplanted to Montana, she is married to Robert Mitchell, AKA Cowboy Bob. She writes daily: blogs, stories, books, and columns for the Stillwater County News and writes a regular humorous blog on Facebook. You can check it out at Wrinkly Bits + (Fans of Gail Cushman). New blogs come out at least once a week, sometimes more often.

Cowboy Bob is a retired Montana rancher, who loves adventure, and the Montana lifestyle. He claims to be a cowboy, night calver, perfume tester, airplane mechanic, expert witness, pilot and wooer of widow women. Since he and Gail married, he’s joined her writing, becoming a Cowboy Poet, presenting cowboy poetry and stories at numerous events, and is writing a book about a night calver, Sagebrush Vigilantes.
