Butte is not, in general, my favorite town on earth...it's basically a giant hole in the ground. But it's got a kind of town-that-time-forgot charm about it.

We're staying in an old mid-century-modern style house wayy up on a hill. The frontyard overlooks all of old uptown Butte. The backyard overlooks new Butte (such as it is).

We're having a blast.
Aside from being the nation's largest superfund site, Butte isn't all that bad. Of course, that's a pretty big thing to ignore. I could go off about that hole in the ground but my patriotism dictates that I refrain for the day.

Another new-found Montana favorite: fireworks. Never been up here for the fourth before, and I've missed out. We only got small crappy stuff in Utah growing up. Yesterday I bought enough armaments to take on the Taliban by myself.
