One of my mother's favorite things to do was to "take a ride around the block." By "the block", she meant the three miles by two-mile rectangle that we live in. As a child growing up just east of the Amos Trail, we would take that ride on Sunday afternoons or warm summer evenings. Often, we would stop at the neighbors to greet them and just check up on them. Well, I started thinking and remembering the neighbors that once lived in our area. Most are gone and their houses are...

By Emily Mayer As today, the big news exactly 100 years ago was the election. I have had the opportunity to read those newspapers from a century ago, fully realizing the sobering reality that the unseemliness of today’s election is, it’s nothing compared to what was going on in 1924. Attacks on the voter registration list were launched in Butte, only to be thrown out by the Montana Supreme Court. The Governor of New Mexico sent National Guard troops to Las Vegas, New Mexico, to ensure that voters would not be intimidated bec...

My friends, I don’t have a story for today. Instead, I’ll send a poem. It is raw, fresh and flawed, but I no longer care about flaws. I’ve been thinking a lot about love. Remember how we used to say “Make love, not war”? Today my chant would be, “Make love, not hate”. Love is difficult, takes careful consideration, time, decisions. That’s my experience. I’m so fortunate to have known and to know so much love. I’m human. I get angry, frustrated, irritated at my friends, but...

A close-to-perfect show requires a ton of rehearsal and usually a lot of help from others to make it hap...
