Move over Mary C! This is going to be a foodie column this week. On Father’s Day, the folks at the Latter-Day Saint Church in La Sal hosted a community “Chili” potluck. It was well-attended.
I don’t know if folks are especially fond of chili or were just hankering for some socialization. Probably...
After much anticipation, the promised food truck is now open at La Sal Central a.k.a. E’s Store. It is called Studebaker Station – home of spuds and studs.
The fare includes burgers, both single patty and double as well as a “Bird Basket” which includes three chicken tenders.
All three items...
The first event of the spring – the rummage/bake/craft sale at the community center occurred weekend before last.
The crowd was a little sparse, unfortunately. That seems to be the norm for community events of late.
The purpose of the sale is to raise funds for our local Senior Citizens Center...
Since the Es have taken over proprietorship of the La Sal Store, they have made great improvements inside. It’s really a cute shop with lots of items including locally produced art items. For a preview there are photos posted on La Sal Barter and Trade’s Facebook page as well as Instagram.

In the 1970s, my husband Steve was the cow foreman for La Sal Livestock. He had a good rapport with the ranchers in the area.
One of those was Harvey Blankenagel. He and his wife Norma owned and operated Rattlesnake Ranch west of La Sal. They ran a nice herd of mixed breed cattle.

Those in the northern part of our state and even to our west, worry that the wonderful moisture, especially snow, received this winter will melt too fast and lead to flooding. A valid fear. We can only hope for their sakes, that Spring melting will be slow and not cause flooding.
Meanwhile, back...
I’ve heard a few folks of late comment that it seems like it has been a long winter. I confess, I am among those so commenting. “Winter” seemed to start the end of October after a glorious Fall season. Now, don’t get us wrong, we are more than grateful for the much prayed for moisture, but...
First, a little explanation about my last column. Someone made an editorial change which defeated the whole gist of my article. Sort of made me seem like a blithering idiot! And the jury is still out on that. Besides, this newspaper already has an idjet writing each week. Don’t get me wrong, I...
I was in Hawaii years ago and stood in line behind a man who wore a cap embroidered with the words, “Paris, New York, Moab”.
Hmm, thinks I, must have bought the hat in Moab. Bet he didn’t get it in Paris or even New York.
So now La Sal can tout that it goes with Elko and Heber City. What do these...
Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it – all at once. For several years folks have been praying for moisture which is so desperately needed in our dry, arid desert country. This while others on both the west and east coasts are enduring horrible floods.
Well, it seems an answer to our...
