Helena Montana July 24, 2010

I went to state capital of Montana, Helena, which is about 2 hours away.  In 1864, gold was discovered in Helena and by 1888 more than 50 millionaires lived there which made it the richest city per capital in the US. Although, I did not find any gold I did have great ice cream at the famous Parrot candy store.

  

Downtown there is a nice walking mall with lots of shops and restaurants.

While driving home I saw this cute church out in the country so I had to stop and take some pictures.
