Growing cucumbers is one of my favorite things to do in the summer. They are easy to grow and everyone in my family loves to eat them. When it comes to gardening and preserving, few delights are as universally cherished as the cucumber. This versatile vegetable offers the freshest crunch in salads and the tangiest bite in pickles. It's no wonder cucumbers have earned their place as a staple in home gardens, thanks to their versatility and ease of growth.

Kelsie Maureen Clutter didn’t have to die. “​​Just one phone call could have saved her life,” said her friend, Danika Stone. Clutter started getting sick a lot around age 18 after graduating high school, Stone said. At the time, she thought of it as a recurring cold, but in retrospect, it was more likely withdrawal from opioids.

Just outside the tiny Carbon County town of Mcfadden, a dirt road winds its way to an uneven grassy pasture. The herd from Sim’s Cattle Company stops here to graze for a week or two each year. In the north end of the pasture, a pumpjack drums up a steady flow of oil for Rock River Operating. Four miles to the east, 66 wind turbines pump out electricity for the behemoth electric utility PacifiCorp.
