Missoula Montana

Checking and checking for last minute airline tickets to Seattle, Portland, Minnesota, New York, San Francisco and nothing, absolutely nothing. Frequent flyer miles and no where to go. Ok, so not a problem. The state of Montana is large enough we can find something to do in our backyard. Hum, Missoula. Ok. let's go to Missoula.

Great little finds for the weekend in Missoula. Checked out a winery, Ten Spoons Winery on a Friday night. Absolutely quaint and perfect for a Friday evening. They are soon to be harvesting grapes. My favorite wine is the red wine, Flathead Cherries. It is a must stop in Missoula. Just off Rattlesnack drive, north of Missoula off Reserve street.
Saturday morning we found the farmers market, purchased some homemade chocolates for a friend that is watching our puppy dog. Great food, people all over the place, fruit and vegetables and crafts. Great pastires and of course coffee. A wonderful way to start out a Saturday morning.
Camera gear always in tow, we photographed the Grizzly football game. We had a great time, lots of action, great game, beautiful day and what could be better that the Grizzlies won. The stadium was packed and cheering fans could be heard for miles.
Sunday morning, a late breakfast and a the long route back home to Bozeman. We went through Hamilton, Dillon and Ennis. More photographs along the way with beautiful scenery.

Thanks Montana for another beautiful weekend.
