The town of Butte, MT is not too far from where I call home. Back in the day, it was known as the Richest Hill On Earth. Famous for it's mining operations and wealth untold discovered, won, lost and traded hands back then. The mines, gold, copper, silver and more, attracted lots miners from all over the world. Those of Irish decent showed up in great numbers and Butte has forever since been known as a town that loves to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. In a big way. So, here's to Butte, hardworking people and a sense of fun. Cheers.
Overheard in Butte, MT on St. Patrick's Day:
"I was reading an article last night about fathers and sons, and memories came flooding back of the time I took my son out for his first pint.
Off we went to our local pub which is only two blocks from the house.
I got him a Guinness. He didn't like it, so I drank his and mine.
Then I got us a Stroh’s, he didn't like that either, so I drank his and mine.
It was the same with the Molson's and the Labatt's.
I thought maybe he'd like whiskey better than beer so we tried a Jameson's. Nope.
By the time I realized he just didn't like to drink I was so blarney gee-eyed I could hardly push the stroller back home!"
