Out our way, you know the old saying, "Ain't a horse cain't be rode nor a cowboy cain't be throwed!" As a really lousy cowhand, I got tossed with alarming regularity. Folks asked if I rode broncs - as my nickname is "Bronco" - and I would answer, "Yes ... but never on purpose!" Ole Doc - the four-left-footed cowpony who regularly sent me flying as he stumbled, tripped and sometimes got a "stitch in the side" - tossed me a great many times. I ended up in the ER with sprained...
Recently, I had the privilege of joining a group of 10 other people to do a retreat at the Montana Women's Prison in Billings, Montana.

Power repairmen said "Those marks are consistent with a beaver having brought the tree down and there are wood chips around the tree." Beavers felling trees are an action; the reaction is a huge power outage, possible fires and roads being closed. The problem must be fixed, which th...
"Don't grieve for me," is what you said, then off you went at noon. We were not there to "see you go" - but we might join you soon. You could NOT stay another day to love, to work to play; Some tasks were truly left undone - but they must stay that way. We know that God reached for your hand, and took you Home with Him And as you crossed the Jordon's shore, you probably sang a Hymn. Life is a lovely memory while death is silent grief. Our dear one sleeps in God's Garden in...

Brewer said he's unhappy with Tempel's voting record, saying he votes with his party, not necessarily the people of Montana.
