Many people try to be very careful prior to going on a big trip, so they don't fall and hurt themselves badly enough that they could not travel. Ranch people try to be extra careful prior to calving season, because that is probably the worst time of the year to be injured. Over the years, we have scheduled surgeries so that we would be healed up by calving season. Unfortunately calving season can also be the cause of injuries. Such was the case about three years ago right at the start of calving season when my son Bret burst...
Hello God, it’s me, Mara: You know, Lord, a friend of mine shared this special/interesting letter: author unknown. So here we go, also sharing this letter entitled; From A Friend: Dear Friend, How are you? I just had to send a note to tell you how much I care about you.

Fifty- five legislative days of the 67th Montana Legislature are now in the history books. As a result of unprecedented amounts of Federal $ and Executive orders, this Legislature and Governor, is faced with decisions that will have momentous implications for generations to come. I would be remiss if I didn’t include Attorney General Austin Knudsen in this discussion as well. His office has already stepped up to push back on the Federal assault on State rights, most notably th...
CCHS Track and Field started practice March 15 under the direction of first-year head coach Brett Nielsen. For many of the athletes, this is their first year competing, and after missing last year due to a COVID-19-canceled spring season, things feel new for the upperclassmen too. Still, there seems to be one emotion that's driven the first few weeks of practice for Nielsen and his team. Excitement. CCHS is scheduled to compete in five regular track meets throughout eastern Mo...

With new marijuana laws coming into effect in the state after the passage of Ballot Initiative 190, there is a different bar to meet before marijuana activity crosses into illegal territory; it can still happen, but what happens to those people who have previously been arrested and convicted for activities that are now legal? Under Section 36 of I-190, those with prior...

Buck and Toni Kratzer have long discussed owning and operating a grocery store in Ekalaka. The couple moved to Ekalaka from Eureka in 2012. Together with their three young daughters Kira (9), Daisey (7) and Loraina (2), they currently operate Kratzer Construction and the Midway Motel. Early in 2020, they started to spend more time planning and designing a store, and last fall construction began on Ijkalaka Grocery. "We wanted to bring some history into it," Toni Kratzer said...
