Montana's is bucks. Plus I heard, uncorroborated, that all the stuffed mooses on the walls are real. That's sad, bad and mean. There's that Kelsey's we hit after the TTC thing in uhhh whenever it was. It was hot. Anyway, point is, Milton has a pile of options.

Milton has all of the standard cookie cutter restaurants - seems to be the formula that all towns with 10,000 or more people are following.

When it comes to lunch, staying longer, whatever, people can play it by ear; I personally have to be back in B-town by 2:30.

I have made it a point of not going to cookie cutter restaurants if they can be had. Does anyone have any suggestions? Maybe something "not white people" for lack of a better term?

burgers/fries/fish'n'chips, steaks, macaroni, pizza, marvelous French cuisine...

I am always up for Asian/Indian whatever, you know Chris :D
I'll probably waste the hole day wandering around the rust though. We'll see

Great event indeed and a pleasant company. There's no way you can cover the whole area in one visit, so we should definitely do this again, in fall.
Thanks Shelley for organizing, and Janet for the ride.

Sorry I didn't make it out -- I had way too much work to do this morning, and I am glad I stayed home to do it all.

Great event. Thanks for organizing it Shelley. Thanks Tim for the directions. Definitely worth another trip back to in the late spring, summer or fall.

Lots to see and photograph.

Great place, apparently pretty popular among photographers. Definitely a second visit
