With my residence directly off a state highway, I’m aware that there will always be more traffic in the summer months, especially from Friday to Sunday. Montana is such a beautiful place, and I understand Treasure State residents and out-of-state tourists increase the traffic on the road on their camping, or some other recreation, or to visit friends and family. One thing I don’t understand is the way some people choose to drive. While the speed limit on the highway I live off is usually 70, I live in a 45 zone. I generally see people going tha... Full story
Having owned a weekly paper in Montana for over a decade, there is certainly a routine in everyday life. There are always the same deadlines to be met, and while sometimes it might feel like the movie “Groundhog Day,” I enjoy what I do for a living and the structure it provides. The same can be said when I am in the kitchen, I have a routine, and because of this, we often eat many of the same things. I don’t necessarily think this is bad because everyone at the house seems to enjoy the rotation of meals. Every once in a while, I will get a lit... Full story
Ashley Jones’ three children were born in three different places — a hospital, a birth center, and at home. Jones, who is 31 and lives in Belgrade, Montana, said she had “zero control over what was going on” during her hospital birth. Jones wanted a midwife to help deliver her third child, and after finding one she clicked with, she decided to go with a home birth. “I felt like I was in control of everything and she was there to listen to what I needed from her,” Jones said. The only downside, from Jones’ perspective, was that her insurance did...
Montana state Sen. Becky Beard thought she’d found a fix for a shortage of assisted living care options for Montanans who can’t afford to pay for it themselves — a shortage she became aware of while searching for a suitable place for her mother to live. Beard, a Republican from the rural town of Elliston, ushered a bill through the GOP-controlled legislature this spring. The proposal would have moved more than 200 people off waiting lists for government-supported care and saved the state money by accessing more federal Medicaid money to cover...

Three Forks Ambulance had a busy June with 32 emergency calls, TFAA transported 17 of these calls to Bozeman Deaconess Hospital. TFAA crew Members responded to assist MED AIR and AMR on several critical calls. The other calls TFAA Crew responded to were refusals or folks checked out, but no transport was necessary. July 14 and 15 was RODEO WEEKEND. TFAA was very busy. Many folks stopped by our table that was set up at the rodeo with some fun goodies for the Kids!! TFAA staged both ambulances at the evening rodeo performances. EMTs were able to... Full story
Homeowners across Montana received a nasty shock in the mail last month, coming in the form of state property reappraisal notices that generally indicated the 2023 valuations used to calculate property taxes have spiked over the two-year reappraisal cycle. It’s unlikely those valuation increases, 46% on median statewide, will translate into equivalent increases when country treasurers mail out actual property tax bills this fall. That’s because the tax estimates included on the reappraisal notices don’t account for how across-the-board value...
Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks is advising anglers that portions of the Sun and lower Madison rivers are closed to all fishing daily from 2 p.m. to midnight. The restrictions will stay in effect until conditions improve. The hoot-owl restrictions are issued for: • Sun River – from the Highway 287 Bridge to the mouth of Muddy Creek. • Madison River – from Warm Springs Boat Launch to the confluence with the Jefferson River FWP's drought policy provides for angling restrictions when flows drop below critical levels for fish, when water quality...

Have you ever taken a moment to reflect on the values that guide your life and where they come from? Recently, I had the opportunity to participate in a practice session centered around NLP as I near the completion of my Masters’s Certification. During this session, a process was introduced to help us define our values, and it was truly enlightening. As I listed my top ten values and went through the process, I discovered something fascinating - some of my values shifted. Even though my values remained fairly congruent, I realized that our valu...
