Awesome Weather

Photo by Penny Hall
It has been a very busy week and the weather has been spectacular.  I took this photo one evening while enjoyiing dinner with friends. Several days this week we experienced afternoon and evening showers.

The weather could not have been more perfect for today's Farmer's Market.  It was in the fifties when we arrived.  The bright sun and calm wind made for an awesome morning.

It is now late afternoon and about ninety degrees.  We are so blessed to have such wonderful weather unlike many of our friends and family in other parts of the nation.

Summertime in Ennis Montana

Photo by Penny Hall
Summertime in Ennis, Montana is always busy.  There is so much to do it is difficult to cram everything into our short season.

Saturday was Farmer's Market, Ennis Arts Association Arts Festival and a Jamaican Festival all in the same day.  The town was hopping.

We entertained out of town guests and attempted to fit a little play time in between work and other obligations.

Our weather is spectacular.  The wind remains mostly calm.  We wake to forty and fifty degree temperatures that climb to the eighties by late afternoon. 

We experienced occasional afternoon showers this week.  Friends from West Yellowstone reported hail that looked a lot like snow.

Ahhh,  summertime in Montana is so wonderful.

Fishing at Lions Park

After dropping off some new pieces to Maydak's Gallery on main street I headed for Lions Park to take a quick walk by the river.  The weather was spectacularly calm and seventy-two degrees.

There were lots of young fisher persons out supervised by their mom's and dad's.  Our little pond at Lions Park allows only children to fish. 

It is always great fun to sit on the bank under a shade tree and watch the delight in their faces when they catch their first fish of the day.
