The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Star Valley resident Jason Reinhardt, an avid houndsman , came across the animal while mountain lion hunting the southern Gros Ventre Range in February 2022. There was no doubt in his mind what it was: a tom lynx, judging by its blocky head.

“Go home,” posts reader after reader. The comment streams of my articles about the migrants have a common refrain: “You’re not welcome here.” And much, much worse. I’ve had to shut down the comments on some of my articles due to downright hostile remarks. It occurred to me, however, that the migrants probably aren’t reading American news, which is published in English. Immigrant rights and housing advocate Amy Beck confirmed my suspicions. “No, I don't think they're aware because the majority don't speak English and don't follow local Denver news,” Beck said in an email. ”It's also not something I've ever mentioned to them. It's not important to me to point out haters. I'm usually talking with them about services and their rights. Also just helping them along their path. I've never discussed haters with them unless haters physically show up in a camp and we have to deal with them firsthand.”
