THE BUDGET—West Kootenai, Montana

Down a winding dirt road that is full of potholes is a small lake. I’ve heard it said that the locals often go there to view wildlife. A friend and I sat for an hour quietly watching the lake, but we didn’t see one creature, not even a bird. An hour before that, though, we saw the famous bear cub, Goliath. Sometimes what matters is not what you go looking for, but rather what you find when you’re not looking. That’s what my time here in Montana has been like. I’m eager to see what tomorrow brings.

We’ve had a whole mess of rainy days, and that caused the local youth to move their Sunday singing into the Kraft and Grocery. Some of us visiting bachelors sat around and watched them, humming along. Mostly we were there for the pie that was passed around.

At church last Sunday, Jared and Elizabeth Brubacher and family were visiting from Ohio. Lester and Wanda Coblentz came from Dorado Springs, MO. Sad that their vacation was spent indoors keeping dry. As soon as they headed back on the train, the sun came out. Go figure.

The book of Ecclesiastes speaks of sunshine being sweet. Getting up this morning, I have to agree it is. Of course, a few verses later, there in chapter 11, it says that people ought to enjoy every day of their lives. So today I’m also thankful for the rain.

—Eli Plank, the bachelor scribe
