Due to the genetics in my family, I am autistic and very OCD, which makes certain things obsessively important to me. Therefore, in the interest of truth and honesty, I feel it is my duty to expose all the supposedly innocent grandmas who serve their families “homemade” dinner on Thanksgiving. We all know that grandma loves to cook homemade pies and cookies, but does she really do it from scratch? I sent a poll around through Facebook and email to 200 people, asking about their grandma’s cooking. The first question was, how does grand...
She coulda been a contender!! Ginger Woodbridge might have been the first great female boxer, but as the case may be, the little fighter, born Virginia Woodbridge on a cold Winter's day in 1919, would not see past her seventh birthday. From that cold winter's day when she entered this earthly realm, Ginger proved herself a real scrapper. After trying for many years, Robert and Janelle Woodbridge finally produced a living, breathing child; but from the beginning, they had a fight on their hands....

At a Whitehall Saddle Club meeting in 1989, after a long year of Barrel Races, O-Mok-See's, Horse Shows, and Rodeos, a group of Whitehall Saddle Club members thought a Community Open House at the WSC Club House would be a great way to give back. As the plans progressed, they decided to pair the event with Whitehall's Christmas Stroll event and raise awareness of the Whitehall Food Pantry. The plans included community members making wreaths that would be sold after the open house. Six beautiful...

November 12, 1997 The water improvement project dominated the Nov. 10 Whitehall Town Council meeting and most phases of the nearly completed project was discussed. Members of the audience and council members Dale Davis, Bill Baycroft, and Chuck Buus all voiced displeasure over the project contractor’s repair of town streets. The displeasure resulted in the form of a unanimous council vote to withhold the final payment to DeBuff (the contractor) of $55,983. Mayor Neil Gallagher said the legality of the council action should be examined and v...

Pumpkin pie is a fall favorite, but it's also a perfect pie to serve throughout the holiday season. There are many different pumpkin pie recipes, even though it's difficult to improve on pumpkin pie which is known for its creamy consistency and warm spices. But pumpkin pie can be even more delicious with the addition of an extra-special ingredient: bacon. This recipe for Joe's Incredible Bacon Pumpkin Pie, courtesy of Royal Bacon Society and Allrecipes, uses maple-cured bacon as well as tangy cr...
In 1883, especially in North-Eastern Allamakee County Iowa, life was not easy for young Alberta Haney. Born to John and Fanny Haney on September 14th of the year 1867, Alberta, or Bertie as she was commonly known, being the oldest child, had been used to long labors in the fields around Lansing. Lansing had been incorporated three years prior and organized as a second-class city by State law in the year of her birth. Bertie barely missed the failed wheat harvests there in Lansing, but by the...

NOVEMBER PART I November 1896 was significant with the presidential election being fought between McKinley and Bryan. McKinley was declared the winner. The battleship Texas sunk in the Brooklyn Navy yard, sitting about five feet below the water line. The court case in the news was the United States versus American Bell Telephone Company. A decision in favor of the government would open the telephone to public use. Here in the Jefferson Valley, the Zephyr's November issue was the last by popular...
November 5, 1997 Dale Davis won two of three wards and was elected mayor of Whitehall on November 4th in an election that saw a 72 percent voter turnout and a mixed message from voters. Davis clearly won the mayoral race, beating second-place finisher Bill Baycroft 217-174. In another stunning development in the Whitehall water improvement project, the Montana Attorney General issued an opinion that largely sided with the project opponents, suggesting Whitehall residents should have been awarded a public vote on the project and concluded the...
Without a doubt, the question I get asked the most is “What are you reading?” Since I generally have at least ten books going at the same time for different book clubs, programs, and my own enjoyment; I decided to share what I am currently reading this week. The History Book Club is reading a biography of a First Lady of the United States. I went through several before deciding what to read and came up with a book I had purchased years ago. My Life with Jacqueline Kennedy was written by her personal secretary Mary Barelli Gallagher in 196...
