Unfortunately, the Helena Blues Festival is in October every year, and in my opinion that's the best thing on your list.

Dang! I thought it was in July.

Cross the Races off your list.

You're right Aish - thanks to you and Stu. I'll post some pictures soon. And yes, Dogpatch is still there as far as I know.

Dogpatch is gone, sorry to say. Its original location burned down in the 80s (I think) and they were going to move it to Johnson County after that, but I think funding fell through and by then the hillbilly joke it a little old.
So don't feel bad about missing it. I have some old neighbors that could sub-in for the main characters.
