Butte

Sunday afternoon we went to Butte to run some errands and spent a little time driving around and seeing the town. Nobody in Montana seems very impressed with Butte (except for the one person we know from Butte). It used to be a booming mining town but now it's best known around here for a wild, out of control St. Patrick's day celebration.

Here are some pictures of Butte...

A mine overlooking the town...

 Raised sidewalk...

 Two old houses REALLY close together...

 Old buildings...

 Downtown...

 I love all the advertisements on the sides of buildings...

Butte is also the home of Montana Tech who is our biggest rivals at Montana Western.
