Musings...If you change your mind please say so, it’s the polite thing to do

If you change your mind please say so, it’s the polite thing to do Over the last few weeks I have been very busy trying to sell many of the items in my rather eclectic collection of “treasures,” which I have been storing for years. Many of these items have been in my possession for decades.

My Two Cents | Here’s to a better future

Since the 2022 General Election happened after our deadline this week. Everyone reading this column will be processing the results of nationwide races. We here at VNV of course, will have complete coverage of local election results in next week’s paper.

An Eclectic Editor:

Letter from the Publisher

It’s hard to believe that being a North Dakota native living in this state for most of my life, that I have never taken the opportunity to attend a college level football game.

Musings...And we have a winner

Shortly after I submitted my column for last week’s issue I received an email from Curtis Engelbrektson with his entries in the Bowesmont mailbox door contest.

My Two Cents | My first deer story

Friday, Nov. 4 marks the opening of the 2022 North Dakota Firearms deer hunting season. The deer youth season and archery season are already open, but Friday is what is traditionally known as “the opener” statewide.
