Note: I recently found this article written for the Havre Daily News that my mother Gertrude Whaley wrote about in 1983. Due to family circumstances, I must travel by Amtrak from Havre to Portland, Oregon. I was to leave Havre December 23 at 3 p.m. Due to severe weather conditions the train did not leave Havre until 2 a.m. on the 24th. The Amtrak crew had fought the severe cold all the way from Chicago, and in many places, they could only go 35-40 miles per hour. It was 35...

"He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain; for the old order of things has passed away." Out our way, winters come hard and fast. I recall a week for Halloween when an Alberta Clipper came roaring down and dropped several feet of snow in a few hours. The temperature dropped to some 30 below and power was shut down for hours and even days in some areas. This is the Hi-Line. This is Montana. This is reality. We live...
Doesn't that sound good? If there were ever words from Scripture that could bring a sense of hopefulness and joy to my heart it is the words in the title above. The words in the title are words used by John the Baptist as he prepared the way for the Jesus the Christ - the Messiah in the gospel of Matthew 3:2. A little later, in the same gospel, Jesus himself proclaims "Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." Matthew 4:17. In the Gospel of Luke 17:21, Jesus takes this...
You've only gone ahead of us, though life has lost its will; But we "sense" you, as though you're here, as living with us still. Maybe you see our tears and grief, and see what all we do. And when we smile, remembering times - maybe you're smiling, too. When you were here, we were just "one"; one mind, one soul, one being. Now we're alone, walking through life, though only "we" are seen. And then night comes, quiet and still, sometimes grief pains then start. We'd like you...
You know Lord, friends stop occasionally and tell interesting stories about their lives. A gal, we'll call her Jill, stopped a while ago, mentioned how lovely the autumns leaves were, some falling, some still attached to their branches. She giggled, mentioned that her Aunt Jane, who lives a ways a way, had told her that in her small town, she'd noticed a playground by a school with a high fence around it. Both of us thought that fence might prevent deer from hopping over; we...

The Harlem Airmen Memorial Committee dedicated a new bridge at Harlem Centennial Park to the 13 airmen who died in the skies over Blaine County 30 years ago in a tragic training crash. Two U.S. Air Force cargo planes conducting nighttime training exercises at 25,000 feet near Harlem Nov. 30, 1992, collided and crashed to the ground, killing all on board the two planes. A memorial for the men killed was created in Centennial Park in Harlem, and the bridge at the park was...
While most signs supporting political candidates in the area have come down since the midterm elections earlier this month, any left up are now in violation of Montana State Law and are required to come down. Montana law requires that political signs endorsing specific candidates must be removed within 14 days of the conclusion of the relevant election, a deadline that was reached last week. The law states that landowners found with signs still up will be given 24 hours to remove them and if they are not removed the...
