A drink in every hand was not what Shayne Merry, (who prefers an orange), had envisioned when he joined the Army reserves and met some life-long friends, one of which he has created a unique website. Josh Rakowski, (prefers an apple), was a roommate in the reserves, and they have maintained the friendship to the present day. They have created a webpage that is getting a lot of attention.

She has a history with gymnastics she studied, performed gymnastics through her younger years. Kama, who grew up in Vida, Montana would travel with her family to Sidney, Montana 3 times a week to participate in a gymnastic program. Her family did this for 7 years, she explained they changed clothes in the car, ate meals in the car, did their homework in the car. She couldn't...
The Centennial committee appreciates all of those who have sent in family/business/community/ organization histories. Thank you! Yes, I'm still working on the book.

When I was about 20 years old, a friend and I were down in Oklahoma shopping at a mall. We wandered into a store and walked around for a few minutes. As we left the store, my friend turned to me and said she was glad to leave as being in the store made her feel icky. (My word - she probably said something much more intellectual sounding.) She then asked if I felt it too. I lied and said, "Yes." I know I shouldn't have lied, but I was embarrassed to admit I didn't "feel" anything, although I understood why she did. What we discovered in that...

The Three Stages of Parturition As the spring calving season approaches, an increased understanding of the parturition process is helpful. The more we understand about the physiology of the process, the more likely we are to make sound decisions about providing assistance. Parturition or “calving” is generally considered to occur in three stages. The first stage of parturition is dilation of the cervix. Cervical dilation begins some 2 to 24 hours before the completion of parturition (2 to 6 hours are most common). This first stage is lik...

It's been a bit foggy out there! And it's not all brain fog. An old wife's tale predicts there will be rain or some kind of precipitation 90 days after a fog, so maybe a foggy January means a wet April! Farmers and ranchers would welcome that. There was beauty in the aftermath of the fog with a heavy frost covering everything, creating a sparkly winter wonderland. There were some electricity outages due to frost on power lines and some slippery walking and driving conditions. Brockway whist report for 1/15/23 by Pat Breitbach. Eight intrepid...

Wednesday January 11th, I sat down and had a lunch meeting with Senator Jon Tester. They had reached out to me earlier in the week and asked if I would like to interview Mr. Tester. Being new to this world of journalism, without thought said yes. Then realized he has been interviewed by "professionals."
