Hello friends! I have arrived in MT and am settling in quite well. Although Butte is a small and slightly isolated city, finding quality food stores, fresh ingredients and friendly people has not been a problem. Below are some highlights from my first month.
Yesterday was the summer solstice and the first day since I've been here (and since the new year I was told by locals) where the skies were completely clear all day. It was just a phenomenally beautiful day. They've had an unusually wet and cold spring this year, so it's felt more like the beginning of spring than the beginning of summer. With dawn at 5am and dusk at 10pm there was almost 17 hours of sunlight yesterday--my longest summer solstice ever! The long days leave plenty of light for after work adventures. The early mornings have proven challenging for my persistent internal clock. Days have been full with work, trail running, sunset watching, and delicious dinning (of course).
