It never occurred to me that his columns were offensive! What right do these two council members have to censor the police chief in… Read More

By Pastor Ryan Stockstrom Harvest Fellowship Church My son and I were able to get away on a mountain hunting adventure this past Fall. It was a great time, and although we were unsuccessful in taking game, we came back with many great shared memories. In our search for elk, we climbed up through thick cover, rocky terrain,… Read More

Popular column continues its hiatus From my desk Bob Williams Enough readers have noticed the absence of the police report and column submitted weekly by Chief of Police Tyler Trieglaff that it bears an explanation.
