In 2010 a life-changing event brought me to Glasgow to live with my mom. I was also excited to be near my sister (Lynn Gilbert) and brother-in-law (Ken). At the time I needed their support and soon it became obvious that we all needed each other and just how much the move was "meant to be." I started applying for jobs in Glasgow in June of 2010, and on my trip from Oklahoma to Montana I had a positive response from the Glasgow Police Department. I was so excited – the job sounded right up my a...
It's Latin. It translates into "Perhaps some day these things will be a pleasure to recall." By the time that you read this, 9/11 will have passed and many Americans as well as people around the world will be reminiscing as to where they were on that day in infamy. We know where we were and exactly what we were doing. By the time the dust had settled in New York, 2,977 lives had been lost, and the "War on Terror" was being initiated by President George W. Bush. It lasted basically for 20 years...
We managed to finish harvesting all our wheat last week, with hired help. That help came in the form of another farming family: mom, dad, and oldest daughter all pitched in. There were a couple young sons riding along, absorbing the strong work ethic. They operated a combine alongside ours, drove the grain cart (transferring the grain from the combine to the semis), and drove said semis (depositing the grain into our bins) to and from the fields. They were a valuable addition, so besides the monetary compensation they earned, I fed them a large...
My mind has gone back to laundry day again. I am remembering the “clothes horse.” Do you remember the winter days of hanging clothing on the reliable clothes horse? I am sure that many homes were like mine and the clothes horse took up residence over the furnace grate on laundry day. This was days prior to the clothes dryer but worked very well. Most of us also remember that old furnace grate and they are still seen at the bottom of the porch steps at many country homes. We probably think of them of mud scrapers or just dirt collectors. Not...
There you are, going about your business, working away on your spreadsheets or your photos. It's a productive day so far, you've gotten lots done! Suddenly, a popup appears on your screen. This popup claims to have taken control of your files and is demanding money to return them to you! Commiserations, you've just become one of the 304 million people who get infected with ransomware every year. Bummer! So how did we get here? Well computer viruses and malicious programs in general first...
At a White House Press Briefing LAST week, Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack and director of the National Economic Council Brian Deese discussed the Biden-Harris Administration's commitment to strengthening enforcement of the Packers and Stockyards Act and creating a more resilient food supply chain. This announcement comes as "Gross profits for some of the leading beef, poultry, and pork processors are at their highest levels in history, while American producers lose money on their products...
In response to the severe drought conditions in the West and Great Plains, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced today its plans to help cover the cost of transporting feed for livestock that rely on grazing. USDA is updating the Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honey Bees and Farm-raised Fish Program (ELAP) to immediately cover feed transportation costs for drought impacted ranchers. USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) will provide more details and tools to help ranchers get ready to apply at their local USDA Service Center later...
"So which of these three do you think was neighbor to him who fell among thieves?" Luke 10:36 Who is our neighbor? Is this a question we ever ask ourselves? There are many responses. Our neighbor works with us at work. Our neighbor lives next door to us, or across the street or down the road. We stand next to our neighbor on an elevator. These answers are all correct. But in our text today, Jesus takes the emphasis off the location of a neighbor. In the parable of the Good Samaritan, there is...
