Will we be able to create a Bitterroot Valley Community College? Montana communities with at least 700 high school students and no immediate access tohigher education may propose a community college. The Bitterroot Valley is currently looking into the prospect of creating such a college. As with all things in Bitterroot politics - it's not as easy as it first may seem. In the end.

The nations Christmas tree finished its journey from teh Bitterroot Valley to Washington DC on Monday. It was quickly set up. And now for the decorations!

Wayne and I are heading off to the Water For Gas workshop being put on by Salmon Valley Stewardship at the Nancy Cummings ranch this morning. I've been hearing about this technology for a long time now, and even have some friends who installed something in their cars. our friends ended up taking their unit out of their car because they had some sort of problem with it, but I am still hopeful that going to a workshop where we can see it put together in real life will make it possible for us to use this technology.

The idea seems pretty simple and has been around for a long time. Our mechanic says it's just a bunch of bull, but I'm still keeping an opened mind.
