Summer Evening in Caras Park, Missoula, Montana

Evening weather this time of year in Western Montana is pretty much perfect - barring any intermittent forest fire smoke - and downtown Missoula makes the most of it. Last Friday was a perfect night for the TomCats to rock the crowd at the 2012 Maverick Brewfest in Caras Park. My sister & I took a big walk along the river path and north Higgins Avenue, enjoying the music and this view on our way back across the bridge.

Okay, '80's children, here's one for you: Last night, in a music-related conversation with friends, my husband pops out with, "... and when we opened for that 'I Wear My Sunglasses At Night' guy in Missoula...." (Corey Hart), and later, "...that time we opened for the Beach Boys ...". 

You'd think I'd already know these things, but maybe Mr. Nash is just keeping the mystery alive.

Here's a shot of my favourite man in his fave band, the Tomcats.
