    Missoula, MT

    Thanks for all the recs so here's my recap of the 4 nights in Montana. Had a burger at the Missoula Club. The patty was good but the burger came without lettuce or tomato. Lots of locals. Tried Tamarack Brewery but their power was out and The Notorious P.I.G. next door ran out of food so we ended up Caffe Dolce which was passable. My buddies hiked to the M and thought it was worth the effort. We also went to Rattlesnake Canyon for a hike. The best meal was at Bridge Pizza. Excellent pie and spaghetti and chicken piccata was tasty and good portion. Tried various brews from Big Sky Brewery and liked them all. Downtown Missoula is a lot of fun. Can watch surfers from the bridge on the Clear Form river. Saturday farmers market was big for a town of less than 100K. Racial diversity was non existent except for all the Asians manning the produce stands. If I had to guess, I'd say they are either Laotians or Cambodians. Drove to Glacier NP and hiked the Highline Loop trail from Logan Pass to the loop. The first 7.6 miles was very scenic to the Glacier Chalet. The remaining 4 miles was a beating since its all downhill for 2,300 feet and a killer on your quad. It took us 5.5 hours and we are decent shape. Had dinner at Flathead Brewery on the way back to Missoula but the meal was not very memorable. The beauty of Montana more than offset the lack of good grubs. It's amazing the entire population is a tad over one million for all that land. I left this morning when it was 60 degree and came back to Texas at 104. If you have a chance, go visit. It is truly beautiful.
  5. This is one of my favorite Korean movies 3-Iron. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0423866/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2
  6. Will be there for 4 days so looking for recs on things to do and places to eat. Was thinking about Glacier NP but that's 3 hrs driving. One friend wants to fly fish and the rest just want to hang out. I know Missoula is a college town but is that enough to occupy us for 4 days? What are some good hikes nearby?
  7. I believe this was on one episode of the Amazing Race. Still one of the funniest scenes on TV.
  8. No U.S., Italy and the Netherlands so Iceland b/c of Sigur Ros
  9. Obligatory "your mom was a regular"
  10. Acheivement? Really? Belmont needs some spellcheckers.
  11. 1,2,4,5,6,7 to be exact with a Canadian at 3 spoiling the party.
