The council has held a n...

To my beloved grandchildren, For now, this is the third and last letter that I am going to be writing to you about my life growing up riding horses. It was a great life and I will always, always be grateful for the childhood I had here on the beautiful prairies of northern Montana. I wish I could ride Roxie, and you ride Rosie, and still another one of you ride Midge, our treasured Shetland pony. We would go west through the pasture and search for teepee rings. We'd ride throu...

Out our way, working with livestock is often a "contact sport." I have been kicked, stomped, bitten, and tossed more than once. I expect most folks who deal with critters can say the same. Sometimes it came without warning - but generally I simply was paying attention to the signs. I was once on a friend's ranch up in the Bear Paws just off the Rocky Boy's Indian Reservation and we were standing around chatting when a young calf came wandering by. My friend got the idea it wou...

As we "worked our tails off" every meal: serving the food to the children; helping them get their trays to their tables; cleaning up so many spills; washing the tables after each group came and went; he...

More or less, it helps if a person is in a giving mood to give many different things, maybe like clothes, blankets, even art, a stove, maybe even an automobile (we've even seen that happen - how special, right?); or how about some stocks or bonds? Recently someone even gave some real estate ('twas out of state, but we learned about it!) and then there is giving of our time. Probably the most important part of...
