It was certainly serendipitous when Pastor Bob got a tire that was going flat at Senior meals at the North Forty. He aired it up and started off for Malta.

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.

Thank God for electric heaters, without a furnace in Montana in December is not...
My dog Ace and I are the same age. In dog years, anyway. He’s aging faster than me, of course, but for a short time, we’re both at the same point in our journey. The similarities are a bit disturbing. Neither of us is as strong and fast as we used to be. We’re both easily confused, and we share a multitude of aches and pains. Pushing my way through the cattails yesterday I tripped over Ace and we fell in a tangle. After exchanging a few heated words we picked ourselves up, dusted off the snow...
