Well this last weekend Randi, Clarissa, our friends Pete and Ellen and myself bundled ourselves into the renta van and drove 11 hours to the Under the Big Sky fest in Missoula Montana. Its the closest fest to our house and one of the only two we can drive to.

They fire off this big cannon during the fest, stuffed with paper. 1 lb black powder make a hell of a noise. This is my buddy Pete standing next to it.

Here's 3/4 of my family at the fest.

Gotta say that Missoula is one of the friendliest, helpful places I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. The fest was a blast, We will go again, even with a days worth of driving.
