We made our way up Pinkham Creek Rd and, after several miles of driving, came to a metal gate hidden by overgrown trees and bushes, just before a road sign that drew oneâs eyes away from the tucked-back driveway entrance. We wound through a short, heavily forested area that opened into a beautiful meadow. The two-track dirt driveway led to a small two-story cabin on the far edge of the vista. A couple of large pickup trucks were already there, with some people waiting to show us the place.
The family seemed tight-lipped and stern during our first interactions, and I am not sure if they had ever had social interactions with people as heavily tattooed as my wife and me. I am sure this can be shocking at first and is something we have become used to, and it almost always eases up once we begin to speak to people who may have been taken aback at first due to all of the ink coverage.
They welcomed us into the cabin and showed us around. It was the width of a single-wide trailer, and it only had one bedroom up in a loft. But it did have a full basement with a laundry and enough space to set up two small rooms for the girls. It was small, but it was cozy. The only thing it was missing was a wood-burning stove, which was something I desperately wanted if I was going to be moving my family into the mountains of Montana. I figured it was best to get to the point.
âIs there any way we could install a wood-burning stove?â
âWell, we have an extra one in storage and have previously talked about putting it in this cabin. We can do that,â the familyâs matriarch answered. She was a tall, silver-haired, no-bullshit type of woman.
There was another, more traditional house that might be available, but had been promised to someone else, though he hadnât signed a lease yet, so they took us over the mountain and around to the other side of the property and showed us the location. It would have been perfect for us. But they had already promised it to another prominent figure in the community, Montanaâs Natural Man, Ernie Tertelgate.
While you may not recognize the name, you have probably seen him on various newscasts, in documentaries, or even in a local police training video about Sovereign Citizens.
He also was featured in an episode of Viceâs Hate Thy Neighbor, which is an irony to me because he was actually a great neighbor. I had a real chance to get to know Ernie being his neighbor. When we visited his house, the entire basement was a library filled with volumes and volumes of big, fat, three-ring binders brimming with his thoughts on the body politic and how things should be in his thinking. I was intrigued by this and had a series of interviews with him for the radio show, where we dug in and discussed his worldviews.
