A great time was had by all those who attended the Malta High School Jazz Combo concert last Tuesday night, February 15. Over the short period of time that I have been covering the band/choir concerts, I have come to expect the unexpected. Especially from the band director, Mr. Eric Engebretson. He seems to come up with some very creative things to do for the band. So when the house lights went down and the stage lights came up, the only band members on the stage were Krista Meisdalen at the...

February is the month that the bald eagles and geese return north! I admit I’ve seen eagles all winter, this year but I suspect it might have been injured.

I had read about all the anecdotal evidence that suggests that cannabis can kill cancer and found information about...

When Barb and I left Bozeman 16 years ago and moved to Malta we jokingly told people that...
