May means Missoula is in full bloom—the hills have thawed out from winter and now grow greener with each passing day, and that means it's only a matter of time before we're surrounded by wildflowers. May in Missoula also means it's prime time for patio-sitting, beer-sipping and browsing farmers markets. We could go on and on. For starters, here are some events to check out for a marvelous May:
