 Sapphires in Them Thar Hill For Keepsies if You Find ‘Em
Posted Monday, July 28 @ 01:00:00 PDT by Brendan
One of the must-see attractions in Montana is the Spokane Bar Sapphire Mine. Don’t take my word for it, they’ve been featured everywhere from National Geographic to the Discovery Channel, and those are tough customers to please. It’s a short drive from Helena, and worth your visit, even if you aren’t an aspiring prospector. |

 Take a Wong Turn to See the Old Fire Tower
Posted Saturday, July 26 @ 08:00:00 PDT by Brendan
If you’re ever in up-city Helena, Montana and think you might be lost, there’s a good chance you are, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t good things to see. By “up-city” I really mean “up-hill” and I know because even though we found a cool little park to revive us, we were already worn down by our uphill trek. |

 Staggering Ox Eatery Proves People Can Stagger Too
Posted Friday, July 25 @ 21:00:00 PDT by Dominic
A decades-old fixture of Helena, the Staggering Ox was recently voted by MAXIM Magazine* as creating one of the top 3 sandwiches in the country (for “The Nuke".) Our little stop off proved more to us than that they know their way around the kitchen. We found they know the way around the whole experience of people dropping by for food, fun and an array of stimu-tainment ranging from musical to visual with many stops in between. |

 Sit a Spell at CineMark, If Only to See Wall-E
Posted Tuesday, July 22 @ 02:00:00 PDT by Dominic
Let’s pretend for a minute that this whole publication is more than just an exhibit in meta-journalism, and that we are in some modest ways permitted to actually make comments on the world in which we live, though by such tools most subtly or humorous we must employ. We’ve been critically lambasted for doing so in the past, but pretend for a second we have a message to send, and that we can do it within the confines of a review of Pixar’s new film Wall-e. |

 Piccadilly Museum of Transportation Worth the Free Admission
Posted Monday, July 21 @ 02:00:00 PDT by Brendan
Butte Montana has a solid handful of things going for it. Not the least of which is that an easy majority of the buildings in town are built out of brick, which is odd all by itself, though odder still, you won’t find a brick museum. One of the less assuming attractions in Butte is the Piccadilly Transportation Memorabilia Museum, which is pretty sound, even without keeping the free admission in mind. |

 Suburban Cottonwood City Rustic Round-Out to Main Drag
Posted Sunday, July 20 @ 03:00:00 PDT by Brendan
If you’re ever taking the time to wander the mainest of main drag in the sleepy town of Deer Lodge, Montana, and you’re looking for another (not so) quick thing to occupy your juniors, it would seem that fate has taken the time to smile all over you, whatever it that means. In addition to the Prison Museum, Car Museum, and everything else they have going for them, there is also the (im)modest suburb of Cottonwood City. It’s so perfect you’d almost suspect it was built only recently by volunteers to appease junior folk such as us. |

 Headwaters Museum Ideal Example of Ubiquitous Coolery
Posted Saturday, July 19 @ 02:00:00 PDT by Brendan
If you find yourself short on gas or long on appetite and don’t know which town you’re about to pull in to, you just might be heading into Three Forks, Montana. That’s especially true if you’re just west of Bozeman, but it’s almost equally likely that you have no idea where you are. Three Forks has got food, gas and lodging sure, but they’ve also got the Headwaters Museum, which is, you know, pretty good. |
