Holiday gifts

Fans of the series Yellowstone are most likely up-to-date on every episode and, by now, are thoroughly engaged in Season 5. My brush with the series came last August when I was cast as an extra in a bar scene for the opening episode that aired November 13th. Well, the word cast is a bit much since the only thing that distinguished my "extra" status that day was how the backside of my jean jacket made it to the screen for literally one second. No, I didn't get to meet Rip, nor did I get a scolding from Beth, but the experience was fun nonetheless! At this point, the next best thing to being on set or watching the series from the comfort of home would be the fun merchandise you can shop for in-store and online that is "Yellowstone" inspired! Talk about great gift ideas for almost everyone on your holiday list! Here are some top picks for the Dutton enthusiasts in your life!

The Butte Winter Farmer's Market has been a huge success, so luckily, organizers are happy to bring it back beginning this Saturday, November 12th! Of course, it all takes place "indoors" in the Butte Plaza Mall as beautiful crops, and meticulous handmade crafts would turn into pure icicles otherwise. With the winter weather sometimes stifling people from getting from point A to point B, the "indoor" Butte Winter Farmer's Market gives people a chance to come together in a comfortable and accessible environment.

We're not even two days past Halloween, and wouldn't you know it; it's time to move on to another excellent event underway, but this time for the holiday season. The calendar doesn't lie as Thanksgiving will be here before you know it, which means another wonderful rendition of the "Butte"iful Christmas Craft Show is coming! This spectacular, feel-good craft show for the whole family will take place at the Front Street Station in Butte on Saturday, November 26th, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday, November 27th, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
