20 GIFs That Sum Up Every Montana Summer
Summer in Montana is unquestionably the best and these GIFs perfectly sum up the feelings you will experience over the next few months.
5pm on a Friday. You have a long weekend and are going camping.
But then you check the weather report… Great. Rain.
And look out the window. Oh my god. Are those flurries?
Not to worry. Your friends just called and the weather is fine at the cabin.
At some point in the summer, your buddy will ask, “should we float the river? I can pick you up.”
But when he shows up (two hours later than originally planned) he doesn’t have a tube.
Luckily there is a Tire-Rama on the way out of town. What else can you do, not float?
Usually around July, you will look around and ask, “who are all of these strange people?” These people are tourists.
At least you get to hear them talk about petting bison in Yellowstone
and, if you are lucky, how they tried to put on bear spray like bug spray.
When the fair comes to town, you will again ask “who are all these strange people?” These people are Montanans… some of them might even be your neighbors.
Begrudgingly, you will go to the fair. Might as well get a Viking…
and a deep fried cheeseburger…
and everything from everywhere that has a short line.
The day after the fair will not be pretty.
But staying home sick gives you time to jump online and see the lineup for the Red Ants Pants Music Festival…
Those with enough courage will decide to go all four days.
Everything is great until your friends start over committing to people who need rides to White Sulphur Springs.
“We totally have room! Bring some of your friends!”
But you will make it work because you know September is right around the corner.
And before summer begins, don’t forget to buy the new shirt from the Montana Mint. Mountana is the OFFICIAL t-shirt of the Montana Summer. All of our products are designed and printed in Montana, so you can support Montana jobs and be the flyest dresser you know.
