Many a mystery has been unscrambled on the back pages of this publication. I hope that the great Malaga missing newspaper saga will be the next one. “Ah, Málaga!” you are thinking: Spain, Pablo Picasso, Guernica, Costa del Sol. I regret to inform you that the town involved in what my editor calls “the Malaga […]

On the Fourth of July, 2006, about a year and a half after my husband, baby daughter and I had moved to the Methow Valley, we were passing through Twisp on our way to visit friends in eastern Washington when we noticed what appeared to be a parade on Glover Street. Our daughter was then […]

Monday, June 19, was the 158th anniversary of Juneteenth, which marks day that enslaved Black people in Confederate states were finally declared free by executive decree. Although the Emancipation Proclamation took effect on Jan. 1, 1863, it couldn’t be implemented in states still under Confederate control. Nationwide, therefore, freedom for enslaved Black citizens began with […]

About 100 people enjoyed a cool, dry June evening at Brown’s Farm for the Jamie’s Place Spring Chicken Fundraiser on Sunday evening. Created to bridge the gap between the cost Medicaid pays for a Jamie’s Place resident and the true cost of living and receiving care at Jamie’s Place, the Spring Chicken Fundraiser was, according […]

Over the weekend I went for a run and as I came around a corner I saw a doe and what I assumed at first glance was a giant chipmunk. (My confusion could be attributed to the fact I am running at such a fast clip that things along the side of the trail appear […]

Occasionally we are all confronted with moments from our childhoods — an unfortunate hairstyle here, a cringe-worthy choice of apparel there. But Winthrop resident Anne Young had the surprise of a lifetime recently when she scheduled piano tuner Joan Smith to examine the piano Anne grew up playing, which is now played by her children, […]

Now that three full years have passed, I don’t spend much time lamenting the things my kids lost during the early stages of the pandemic, when schools closed for the final three months of the school year. That is, I didn’t spend much time lamenting, until I saw the Liberty Bell Drama Company’s production of […]

Last week someone ripped down the rainbow flag that was bolted to the Spring Creek Ranch signpost. Most of us probably didn’t take note of the vandalism because, understandably, our attention might have been diverted by national and world events. After all, a mass shooting in Allen, Texas, had just left eight people dead —the […]

Three Methow Valley residents had a brush with royalty on Saturday. First, let me applaud Bev Jensen, Jocelyn Murray and Carolyn Sullivan for going public about not only watching the coronation of Charles III, but also planning an entire tea party around it. (I’ve found that one of the benefits getting older is being unabashed […]
