At the turn of the century life in the mining city of Butte, Montana was tough. Long difficult hours in dangerous mines made life short and strenuous. However, the difficulty of living brought out the best of people from all walks of life. The superior craftsmanship of these workers is evident in architecture all around Butte. The Spirit of Columbia Gardens Carousel is a labor of community love and seeing the hand-carved horses first-hand will unfold a story with their uniquely chosen illustrations. #ButteElevated #LiveElevated #PlayElevated #VisitButte #ChooseMontana #FriendsFriday #Community #History #Horses #Carousel #Kids (at Spirit of Columbia Gardens Carousel) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn_oexAnSXC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kau8io7ynskh

"Moving past its faded glory days as a copper mining boomtown, Butte has spent recent years becoming a really special stop for visitors. Some Montana mining hotbeds are true ghost towns nowadays (some are even preserved as state parks), but Butte has continued to evolve. This is one reason we find it so compelling: we've always had a passion for edgy destinations on the brink of something great." ~Loren Bell - Lonely Planet (Link of full article in profile.) #ButteElevated #LiveElevated #VisitButte #VisitMT #Montana #ChooseMontana #InnovateMontana #History #Future #LonelyPlanet #Travel #MTStateParks #ExploreMore #MTOutdoorRec #Innovation (at Butte, Montana)

Celebrated #BookLoversDay by asking @joycecaroloates & Eudora Welty on a date. "It'll be fun," I said. "Not too sure about that," they replied, skeptically. Then I took them to the @littlefreelibrary in #Butte #Montana, shoved them inside, and slammed the door. "Ha! That's what you get for going on a date with a #booklover," I said as I drove away. There was no answer because, I think, they were already deep into reading the other #books in the little kiosk. If anyone wants to rescue these two fine #writers, they're waiting for you at 1638 Gaylord St. #littlefreelibrary #freebooks #classiclit #AmericanLit #ButteMT #butteelevated #VisitButte #miningcity #bookstagram #bookworm #booksofinstagram #fiction #novel #montanamoment (at Butte, Montana)
