According to the Associated Press, Yellowstone Park is considering a new fiber-optic line that would improve “connectivity” in certain areas for mobile devices. That means tourists would be better able to send and receive selfies, tweets and texts while visiting the world’s oldest national park. Instead of twiddling their thumbs waiting for Old Faithful to erupt, folks could amuse themselves looking at all the Facebook photos of kittens doing the cutest things. No longer would the kids whine...
If you love snow, you are welcome. If not, please except my most sincere apologies. What? You didn’t know I control the weather? Well, you are correct, I don’t. My wife and daughter, however, do. Thank or scold them for this sudden frozen climate we now find ourselves in.

Charity and Sophia did me a solid by cleaning up the Halloween dec...

In actuality we have three sets on display, a collection of holiday bears, glitzy holiday pins, and several Christmas carolers. The carolers have been extremely sil...

Winter moved in with a blast Saturday night giving us a white cover by Sunday morning. Snow continued to fall on Sunday with a wind building up a few pretty deep drifts. Temperatures are going down too - supposed to be much colder by Tuesday.

Asking for winter troubles. Helen Vogel would like to thank the k...

Get well wishes to Randy Stensvick, recovering from an accident, Connie Scheffelmear and to Cherie LaBrie.

Anyone that knows me, knows I love my Chicago Bears... After Sunday’s “embearassing” 55-14 loss to Green Bay I am convinced that the team has no heart, our coaching staff needs to be canned or the team is tanking this season on purpose for next year’s draft. I only believe two of the aforementioned in my heart. It’s rough sledding for Chicago, who at one time had one of the most feared defenses in the league. Apparently the Packers admitted the next day to knowing the Bears defensive signals....
The season for the Malta Mustangs came to an abrupt end last Saturday as they were on the wrong side of a 41-0 beatdown, compliments of the Bigfork Vikings. And though the season is over, Malta should be proud of their team, who wasn't even expected by many to have a winning season. Malta did not only go 5-3 but they won a game in the opening round of the playoffs. "Our team as a whole really came together and our offensive line grew as a unit and got a lot of experience," Mustang Head Coach...

The Choteau Bulldogs would eventually defeat Shelby for the divisional crown in the...
