Missoula

Last weekend we drove back to our "hometown" of Missoula, Montana. It has been 6 months since we last touched down in the land of The University of Montana, El Cazador, the Kettle House and some of our best friends. Just let me tell you that it felt good to have been home!

We headed from Billings to Zootown last Friday night, under a beautiful Big Sky.

The weekend started out with breakfast at the Hob Nob with our friend Kay, but not without some strong coffee at Bernice's Bakery. Yum!


The rest of our day was split, with Susan and Kay meeting up with the Hales at the Farmer's Market while my best fishing buddy, Morgan, and I went fishing up at Rock Creek.

Dinner was fun at El Cazador with brother Tom, crazy Nadia, Kay, Terry, Susan and myself. The fajitas were sizzlin' and the wine margaritas were flowin'.


Morning was all about the hot coffee and tea with Nadia, great breakfasts and picturesque walks with the dogs up Pattee Canyon.


Sunday I went on the group bike ride with the NRO ladies and gents. Thanks for an awesome 50 miles around the valley with a finishing climb up Pattee Canyon Dr.

Sunday night was a fantastic BBQ with Kay, Terry, Tom, Nadia, Susan and me. We had good beer, wine and conversation. Our first outdoor soiree was quite a success!
