Whitewater News & Opinion for Wednesday, March 29, 2023

Sympathy to the victims of the floods in California and all over.

Greetings from Iceland, ha-ha. You cannot believe how much snow and ice we have in Whitewater, drifts are 18 to 20 feet high!

Thanks to Jason Hellie for driving his snowplow on streets and my yard.

We had several years of real drought, no crops at all. Maybe this snow will change that cycle, hope so.

Also, good luck to the ranchers feeding cattle and now calving. Hope they have barns.

The weather all over Montana has been hard. We heard the Billings Gazette Newspaper did not come two times due to bad weather.

March 21st was the first day of spring, but sure isn’t spring here yet.

Canada’s weather is about the same as ours, Teresa my daughter reported. “We have so much snow and cold, think spring everyone!”

Hello to Dixie Stordahl, who got to go to Florida. I’ll bet you wish that you would have stayed there, don’t you Dixie?

Late “Happy Birthday” to all March birthdays. This includes Calvin Reichelt and Jon and Seth Siewing who celebrated their 18th birthday.

The North 40 in Whitewater had a dart tournament recently, to end the season.

Well, I have been pretty much house bound. Tuesday Jeanie Green took me to Malta and back to shop for groceries. Grocery shopping is fun, but the prices really have gone up, eggs are up to $7.00 a dozen. Maybe we will get some chickens!

The geese are back in Montana and on Whitewater creek. Wonderful!
