Montana Vacation: Day 8 - Missoula & Phillipsburg

Missoula is a delightful small city where we spent a couple of hours wandering the downtown area. The weather was actually really warm and sunny so we were happy to be outside. The highlights for Owen were definately the hand-carved Carousel and the Big Dipper ice-cream parlour that make the most delicious home-made ice-cream; the Huckleberry flavor was the best! After Missoula we went on a long drive headed East toward the little town of Phillipsburg which was adorable. The Main Street is so tiny and all the buildings are from the 1880's and full of charm - this little town has so much pride. The best shop by far was a candy store - i have never in my life seen one shop full of so much candy/chocolate - and it was all done in the old-fashioned way of how you would imagine the inside of a store would have looked in say the 1920's.. it was so cute! ... the funny thing is that Owen was fast asleep throughout the whole store-visit.... phew, lol.... huge relief that we didn't have to deal with a huge tantrum because he couldn't have every single candy in the store... and it all smelled so good.. mmmmm.. we sure lucked out on that one, lol.
