Like the Weather Channel’s Jim Cantore showing up when a hurricane is imminent, I worry that I’m becoming a harbinger of drought and wildfire. My wife and I bought a place on Fort Peck Lake in Garfield County less than two years ago. Our first summer there was idyllic. There was plenty of moisture and the land stayed green until August. Cattle grazed on the abundant grass. Fall rains filled the stock tanks and snow covered the ground for months last winter. Then spring arrived, the snow mel...
When local summer camps hit, it is a fresh reminder that school is right around the corner. Last Wednesday I visited the North Country Basketball Camp as well as the Mustang Football Camp. Both camps had a decent amount of participants. It was great seeing all of the youth in both of these camps, but it also reminded me of how long I have been here in Phillips County. I know in the grand scheme of things that five years is not a long time. I also know that some of these kids have grown a lot in...
