  • Conversations with God

    Updated Aug 21, 2019

    Hello God, it’s me, Mara: You know, Lord, sometimes the wind moans and groans and whistles as it gently flaps the curtains at the open window which we like to have open a bit during this Summer Season. We know some older folks who in fact seem to know how to read the moods and moans and sighs of the wind – but for sure, that talent didn’t get to all of us.

    Hello, If you’ve been reading my column over the years, you know how I appreciate county fairs. Not the big State Fairs. The little county fairs where you can see who in the neighborhood has the nicest garden, the best welder, the coolest photographs, and which 4-H club has put in the most work. The two county fairs I still love to attend are the Harding County Fair in Camp Crook, SD., and the Slope County Fair in Amidon, ND. We attended the Harding County Fair this past weekend. And I have to brag a little. Our grandkids d...

  • Social Security impersonation scam impacting Montanans across the state

    Updated Aug 21, 2019

    Two weeks ago a man in Havre gave out his Social Security number to a scammer. This week a woman in Great Falls became another victim. Calls are being received across the state of Montana by persons pretending to be Social Security Administration employees. The intent of these calls is to steal the victim's identity and/or money directly from their bank account. The calls often sound official and are designed by con-artists to get around their victim's logic and caution by creating a sense of urgency and fear. Various...
