I may not be alone in saying that this is my favorite time of year in the state of Montana; which is odd for me being that I have always been a fan of the fall season nearly everywhere I have lived. Fall means that my birthday is near. Fall for a couple of decades meant relief from the heat and humidity. Fall means that Christmas is around the corner. I have had a change of heart since moving here in 2012. Most of the winters here have been brutal. And though the lack of humidity here is...

Last week, we had another cold snap or two, but the week presented me with a familiar event that I haven’t had since before Christmas; a vendor show. Like a lot of Americans, I have a second job of sorts. And sometimes my second job as a coffee roaster allows me to get out and meet a ton of people all at once. I have been doing this second gig for five years, when I can. I have been on both sides of the vendor show experience, as a customer and as a vendor. I enjoy both aspects. For those t...

For the second weekend in a row, track meets around us were postponed due to weather. The first weekend, I did something that I loved. We went out of town to Medicine Hat and were tourists.
