8/30/08 - 9/5/08 Will be on vacation with the family camping in the Tetons and Yellowstone. I will not be bringing my laptop; therefore, I will not be updating the newspaper until I return. September will have other days where updates might not come right away because we will be moving to a house we are in the process of buying in town (Bozeman) in mid-September. So, as we re-settle, it won't always be easy to update the paper as timely as you've come to expect.
