The Dodson track is being rebuilt and the weather is getting nice enough it will soon be needed and used. They are doing a really good job with it so hope there is lots of kids out for track. We've had lots of sunshine for several days making it nice but some wind every day also. Sooner or later every day the wind is going to blow. Steve and Judy Henry were up to Mom Dora's on Sunday morning for a quick visit and said they had hit a grouse just south of Dodson. Not good but could not find too...
We have been having some really good days and there is a little green starting to show through in places, not much, but every bit counts. Polly Solberg attended services for Lois Bruckner on Friday and Saturday in Malta. Condolences are sent to the family of Lewelyn (Boos) McNamara in their loss. Steve and Judy Henry of Laurel were up to mom Dora's for a day again this week. Polly Solberg and Dora Henry were in Havre Wednesday for some tests for Polly and some shopping. Polly visited some old...
The weatherman is predicting it to be warmer all week long, so hope he is right. With the warmer days and the wind every day we finally are out of snow---things are a little brown yet, but soon a little green should be showing. Steve and Judy Henry came up from Billings on Thursday and brought me a newer computer as I seem to have picked up a virus or hacker on my old one. On Friday Schwartz Plumbing and Heating brought and installed a new furnace. I'm just happy the weather was warmer--it...
Polly Solberg and Dora Henry went to the Harlem Seed Show on Saturday. There was quite a bit of art and lots of beautiful quilts but not too many other booths and exhibits. Some said there was a good car show down on the end at the shop but we did not walk down there. There was a school for Election Judges at the courthouse on Thursday and it had a full class. It was conducted by Lynnel LaBrie and Lori Lundstrom. The weather keeps its up and down travel, we have been getting enough sun and wind...
All week we have had harsh winter again. We got several inches of snow Wednesday night and Friday and the cold followed and stayed. It was sort of bad weather for the tournaments but they carried on well. Terri Cole and Bonnie Lankford went to Helena in the storm on Friday. Velyma Broadhead has been away for a few days this week. Kay Taylor has been having issues with her propane/furnace so has been a little cool with electric heaters. Hope things are better with you Kay. I was a little worried...
It is surprising how a couple days of sunshine and the horrible wind can change the landscape so fast. The ground that was white is now brown again and there is not even hardly any water standing around any more. My son at Laurel said they had 7 inches again so were having to shovel everything off. Sunday we were hit by another horrendous wind--it even roared a little. Most of the basketball is over so cross country kids will soon be seen out running. At least it is beginning to warm up for...
We could not get away with out at least one more cold blast and a little more snow from old man winter, so Sunday and Monday were nasty again and very cold. The community was saddened with the death of long time resident of Malta and Saco, Helen Mae DePuydt. She had been a good friend to many--she was my neighbor as we grew up. Condolences are sent to the large extended family. Also condolences to the family of our friend and long time teacher at Dodson, Bob Hicks, who passed away on Valentines...
The weather has stayed pretty much the same, some warmer days, but lots of wind, and on Friday a short little snowstorm. It has cleared it down so we are seeing a lot more bare ground again. There was a Council on Aging meeting on the ninth with an election of officers for the new year. I hope everyone remembered their special one on Valentine's Day. Bonnie has been delivering some of the lunches from the Center. Polly is still visiting with Nathan and family at Townsend. Watched the Super Bowl...
Sunday was a day right out of spring, the wind blowing of course, but warm and water all over. Too early for the frost to be out so it was just standing. The school did get going again, but the town is still pretty quiet. Little excitement coming up, but so is spring. Polly Solberg is still visiting in Billings. Terri Cole rode to Glasgow with Steve and Tara so they could pick up their new pickup. They enjoyed supper out while there, nice to get away for a while. Continued get well wishes to...
Well, we have had pretty good weather this week as opposed to what we were having. It has actually been pretty nice most days. We have had a couple light snow drifts but the sun and the wind have taken most of them away again. Let's hope it continues on it's upward climb. Terri Cole returned home this week after being away visiting kids and traveling.At least she missed the really cold weather. I understand they are looking at opening school again on the 31st. It would be nice if they are able...
This week has all been pretty warm for us. It has melted a lot of the snow (and) because of the freezing at night has made some vicious ice, but everyday it melts enough to put some water on top but it is all helping the snow to disappear. The hills and yards are mostly brown now and we can see some of the streets again. Supposed to be a little snow this weekend again, but hopefully, the sun will take care of it again. Sadly, our school has been closed again due to so many testing positive for C...
At least the weather has given us a little reprieve and we are having some fairly pleasant days and some of the snow is disappearing. So many things have happened this week---we send condolences to the entire Plouffe and Henry and related family and especially to Wilma (Henry) Plouffe and immediate family in the passing of Garry Plouffe. May God be with you all at this time. The worst part of a funeral is that you see and talk with relatives and friends that you have not seen for sometimes long...
Seems funny that weather takes the head place in conversations but this year has given us lots to talk about. It is still very cold, as I write this it is minus 5 but the weatherman has told us we are warming up this week starting tomorrow. Wednesday and Thursday are supposed to be our warmest. I certainly hope he is right. Well, our Bobcats lost, but they did make it to the championship, so we are proud of them. It was too bad that one of their main players hurt his ankle in the first quarter....
Our weather has definitely turned for the colder----below zero at night and only slightly above in the daytime. The community extends condolences to the family of long-time resident Laura Cole who passed away this week. Her funeral was Friday at 11:00 on a very cold day. We will all miss her. Terri Cole left today to spend Christmas in Wyoming with daughter Bubba and her family. Hope it is somewhat warmer there. Birthday greetings are sent to Terri Cole on the 26th and to all others having a...
For Wednesday, December 15, 2021. This last week has been cold and nasty and given us an unpleasant look at winter weather. Saturday did warm up to 41 degrees for a couple hours before starting down again. The weatherman predicted cold all week. Sunday got up in the 40's again. I attended a COA meeting in Malta on Wednesday & when I got home---no furnace----it wouldn't turn on and there was an odd odor in my house. Thank God for electric heaters, without a furnace in Montana in December is not...
Thanksgiving is over again for another year and I hope everyone had a wonderful day with family and friends. It is a good time for visiting and enjoying fellowship and lots of good food. It looked like we would have snow over Thanksgiving but after a light dusting, between the wind and the sun it all disappeared again. Lots of wind all week though. Terri Cole went to Denton to help with Thanksgiving dinner with daughter Kathy and family and to help care for Kathy who has been quite ill. We all...
A terrible wind seemed to cover all of Montana on Wednesday and Thursday. We had winds here both days and they were really hard. No moisture came with them though. Other than the winds the temperatures have not been too bad. Colder at night but easier to get along with for November in the daytime. Terri Cole is spending Thanksgiving with her daughter Kathy and family. She is enjoying traveling more and visiting kids. Dora Henry and her daughter Linda were in Malta a couple different days...

Later grandchildren serving included Dirk, Marine--Dan and Dave (twins) Army-- and Roger and Bill, Army and later great grandson Aaron,...
We had another nice rain on Saturday night. It was nice to wake up to see all the little puddles of water in the streets.It all helps make up from being so dry. Terri Cole and Bonnie Langford went to Billings on Wednesday. Polly Solberg and Dora Henry were in Havre on Friday for medical and shopping and were almost blown away by the wind there. Otherwise it was a beautiful day. Aaron and Tiffani Leys stopped at Dora's on their way home from Glasgow where Choteau had been victorious at...

Lots of birthdays this weeek, Betty Munson, my daughter Linda and my great granddaughter Megan and several that have passed on looking at my list. I myself even had another one this week, can't count how many--don't have enough toes and fingers--must be 29 and holding. Many thanks for all the cards and calls I...
The weather keeps telling us that we are going into the fall-winter season. The nights have continued to be colder and below freezing but the days for the most part warm-up and are quite nice. We know it's coming but please not for a while. Covid 19 seems to be raising its ugly head again. We heard it hit Serese Pankratz quite hard-- the community sends get well wishes and hope she continues to feel better. Former Dodson resident Noreen Munson Sargent was reported in ICU in Williston with the...
Fall is sure moving up fast----the leaves are falling like snowflakes ---have hauled two loads to the dumps already. It is fun to watch the trees---some shed their leaves so fast while others lose a few and then sit before sending any more down. The temps are getting a little cooler every night too. Bill Henry stopped at his mom's on Friday, moving home from jobs over East. Terri Cole returned home after medical treatment in Billings and visits with some of the kids. Polly Solberg returned home...
Days are still getting quite warm and make it nice to work in the yards but some nights are getting quite cold. Has dipped close to freezing several nights. Polly Solberg went to Bozeman for the football game----the Cat's won---and to watch her grandson Devon preform as one of the mascots. She also saw a large antique car show and other activities. Had a nice weekend. Terri Cole goes to Billings this week to have cataracts removed. Good luck Terri and Best Wishes for a quick recovery. Dora...
We are still enjoying good fall weather in the daytime even if it gets a little cool some nights. Everyone seems to be cleaning up and gathering things to put away for winter. They have all the floor and the apron torn out of the new bus building to replace it. Lots of work and lots of cement to dispose of. Polly Solberg has been busy visiting and caring for business before it gets colder. Terri Cole is still away visiting many grandkids and other family and enjoying shopping. I finally got all...
