Day 53, Missoula Rabble, Mia


Missoula Rabble, Mia is a six-year old who loves snakes. "King cobras are my favorite because they're the kings." She's smart, too. "I like snakes because they get rid of spiders and bad things." She named her new toy snake Ruby. "But she goes by Sparkles," she told me.

Day 52, Missoula Rabble, Wayne


Missoula Rabble, I met Wayne outside the Good Food Store tonight. He was drinking a hot cup of coffee on a warm summer evening, dressed in camouflage shorts, suspenders, a tie dyed shirt, and sported a big white beard. He had to be interesting, right? "I'm just a regular old guy in Missoula, on a regular old day in Missoula," he told me. He has lived here 44 years. "A lot of journalism students approach me when I'm on campus. I do know one thing. Being truthful goes a very long way."

Day 44, Missoula Rabble, Evantee


Missoula Rabble, Evantee, 13, helps out at the El Cazador food truck, his family's business. When I asked why he liked working there he looked at me like I should already know and said, "Because it's fun," and continued service. True enough. I soon left the hard working man of very few words alone so he could do his job.
