The 2007 Battle Mountain volleyball team is trying to establish a different identity from its 2006 state champion counterpart.

OK, I’m tired of being silent. I realize this is just the warm-up season for the election next year, but the cartoon in Saturday’s paper just went too far. I was raised to respect the office of the president of the United States of America.

Every day there are stories to be told in Moffat County that serve as small reminders about why we choose to live and work in our small community. Numerous times we read in the newspaper how our community comes together in a time of need to provide assistance during and after an emergency.

We would like to take this time to thank all the great people who helped us after our accident Aug. 13.
