Out our way, dawn is especially welcome in winter. The sun sets early and the sun rises late - and in between it gets really cold! More than once I have wondered if it was ever coming as I stomped my feet, ribbed my hands and even ole Doc shivered as I sat watching with hopeful eyes the eastern ridges. As many of you know, the date we celebrate Christmas was chosen by the early Church during the time of great persecution. The pagans hunted down, abused, robbed and even killed...
Today, I am pulling out my 2022 calendars and writing down events taking place during this first month of the new year. As I do this, I can't help but wonder, what is this year of 2022 going to be like? Will it be like 2021? Will it be like 2020? In a very real way, I hope the answer to both of those questions is a resounding no! And yet, we really do not know what this year (or any other year) will bring. So, what do we really know? We know that God loves us continuously....
You know, Lord, New Year's can be like a fresh start! Our Mom delighted in opening up a new diary/journal which she faithfully kept until You called her home. We also delighted looking at the bright new calendars, checking photos and art work; checking days to see which day of the week anniversaries and birthdays of family and friends fall on. All too soon the neatly arranged rows of squares are filled with various appointments, or as one gal said, 'filled with the living of o...

Saturday, Sept. 25, around 4 p.m. an Empire Builder train derailed just outside of Joplin killing Marjorie and Donald Varnadoe of Georgia, 72 and 74 respectively, and Z...
After a year of difficulty filling positions the Hill County Commission is still trying to find members to fill 16 seats on various boards. The most dramatic case of intermittently empty board seats this year was on the Great Northern Fair Board, which had three members including then-Board Chair Bobbie Dolphay, then-Vice-Chair Chelby Gooch and Ray Kallenberger resign in March of this year. These members were replaced, but Lex Keller resigned from the board just after this year’s fair and a shake-up shortly after in A...

Last year, the collapse of Drop 5 of the St. Mary Diversion and the coordinated effort to fix it was one of the biggest stories of of the year, and this year the ongoing efforts — and finally some success — to fund long-overdue repairs to the Diversion was one of the biggest ongoing stories. Local irrigators and residents had been warning for more than two decades that the diversion and conveyance system, which provides much of the water in the Milk River each year, was on the verge of collapse after many decades of rep...

Press release Every winter, the Havre city government receives several reports of water service lines freezing during the cold weather. In an effort to prevent the costly and sometimes futile expense to the homeowner attempting to thaw the frozen service line, the Havre water department has the following suggestions.
