Missoula, Montana is more then a place. It's a way of life, where people are much more relaxed and actually slow down to enjoy life. That's something I've noticed since leaving Missoula, where I attend school at the University of Montana, just a few weeks ago. Even here in Maine, "The way life should be," people seem rushed and hurried. It's not like that in Missoula; In the west.
I was able to meet Missoula and the people and places that make it up through the lens of my camera for my Basic Photojournalism class and the images that follow are from that effort. It's hard to capture a way of life on film, but maybe with these few images you too will get an idea of what "Life In The West" is like.

Franz, my boy, this section brought a tear to my eye. Me and Taylor have missed you a great deal this summer and expect to see you at the bear Sunday evening. The discussion topic: Who is up for the election for High-Bear Chancellor of Bear Court.
With Love,
Kevin (a.k.a Jesus of Nazareth)
