“Happy Birthday” to May Birthdays, including Jana Wisher. “Happy Memorial Day.” I usually decorate graves of Mom, Dad, and Harry Jr. (brother). Some people have picnics, many in Whitewater have cabins at the Nelson Lake Reservoir, where they spend the weekend. Now that school is out, life is quieter in Whitewater. Most students live in rural areas. However, some youngsters ride bikes or play on the playground. If anyone has any news call me 674-5576 (let it ring) or write to me. This is the fin...

Remember when you could order an entire house through a catalog? Inside studs, outside wood, nails, detailed instruction books, and each item needed to build a house would be delivered by rail. The house was called a “kit house.” The H.G. Robinson House is a kit house. A well-known company that provided this type of home was Sears Roebuck. Sears started shipping kit homes in 1908. It is reported that by 1940 Sears had sold 70,000 homes across America. And even more amazing in 1918 seventy percent of those were still standing. The H.G. Rob...
I recently read another article concerning the influx of new residents to Montana and what they should know in order to fit in out here. It’s a tired, overworked story. The reality of the situation is quite different. We have to adjust to them, not the other way around. While long-time Montana residents bemoan the flood of out-of-staters fleeing the places where they were born and spent their careers, those are the same folks we most often choose to lead us. Our governor is from New Jersey. O...
