Lovin comic Carl!

Dear Editor, Just a short note regarding the disappearance of the paper’s comic section. A newspaper is not really complete without something to make you laugh. But then I realized that we don’t really need a comic section, as we have Carl. He’s not only funny but also quite informational. Keep it coming Carl. Len […]

I quit! Safety and sanity no-longer worth it.

DEAR EDITOR, Don’t know exactly how to say this but – I quit. Writing THE OUTDOORS column these past five years has been fun, and I love sharing about critters and the outdoors. Couple of years ago political comments were added. This amounted to ‘coloring outside the lines’ meaning I should stick to birds and […]

Fact check the columnist Carl Wolf

Dear Editor, I say again the Yellowstone County News needs a Fact Checker. You certainly don’t want to go down the same path as the Billings Rag – aka Gazette. Poor Carl…where does he come up with all his misinformation? Is it intentional or just ignorance?

Outdoors: by Carl Wolf

Little after 4 AM in early July and am sitting on the front deck of my home looking at the sky starting to brighten in the east. Soon brilliant, pastel colors spread across the sky placing a shiny sheen on a field of Bill Hein’s ripening barley across the county road. A robin sings nearby […]

Wolf up to his old tricks again

Dear Editor, I thought maybe Carl had started to see the light, but I see he is back to his old tricks…smearing our President and anyone who supports or voted for him, i.e. Republicans/Conservatives.

Mr. Wolf, I couldn’t agree more!

Dear Editor, Carl, thank you for your comments about writers who submit letters to the editor of YCN in your weakly column on March 22nd.  I had been mulling over a response to your constant snide & sarcastic digs at President Trump & his supporters for some time, but you wrote a much better critique […]

Love, compassion and respect for everyone

Dear Editor,  On Face Book there was a “Which side of the fence are you”  of conservative and liberal stance.  No one I know fit their description for either. I claim Christian Democrat, meaning Christ died for EVERYONE on the planet

Rethink Outdoors Column’s political commentary

Dear Editor,  This is my first letter to your very interesting newspaper (the rest will be way shorter), and up to this point appears to be a truth filled newspaper, not a liberal, pundit laced tabloid such as the Billings Gazette has become.  The Gazette will not print certain commentary if it appears to be […]

Outdoors by Carl Wolf: Catching flies with big politics

Congress passed, (yes, it does occasionally), the Coinage Act in April 1792 and established the first national mint in Philadelphia, our first Capitol, (no, it was not Mar-a-logo). Which brings me to my point, fly fishing. My lifetime subscription magazine from the Federation of Fly Fishers came today and after looking at the pictures of […]

0 Degrees, Bonbons, and the Art of a New Year’s Resolution

Jonathan and Tana McNiven try their hand at painting at Yellowstone Coffee and Canvas, located in Lockwood, MT.

2019 started off slowly with the weather clocking in at a big fat goose egg, “0 degrees.”  In fact, it was so cold, it was like when Carl Wolf stopped frozen in his tracks when he saw me come visit him a couple weeks ago.  I even brought him some bonbons (Yes, I really finally […]
