Chapter 33

Mack watched out the window as the Montana landscape seemed to rise up to meet the belly of the 737 as it descended to the runway. The airport was on the outskirts of Billings, a city of 150,000 plus, according to the latest census. Because of the oil and shale oil discoveries, the city was experiencing rapid growth. But did that growth also bring with it enough guys of the kind their business would need to make it a go? That could be investigated later. Right now all Mack wanted to focus on was Seth.

Three weeks had elapsed since Seth had left New York. During that time Mack had worked on making contact with real estate agents in Montana to see what they had to offer that would meet their needs for the bar project. He had taken care of business in New York and his calendar was freed for him to go.
