This is the fourth in a series on

new residents of Westby:

Mike and Shannon (Johnson)

Gebhardt have made Westby their

home since December of 2007 when Mike took on the duties of

head custodian at Westby School.

Shannon, the daughter of Westby

residents, Clifford and Teresa

Johnson, is a 1991 graduate of

WHS and happy to once again be

in Westby Ranger country.

Mike, born and raised in Rapid

City, South Dakota, graduated in

1992 and attended Wyoming

Technical School. Mike has worked construction since 1994,

most recently as a foreman for a commercial construction com-

pany in Denver, Colorado. Upon graduation, Shannon attended

Eastern Montana College for two years and then on to Interna-

tional Air Academy in Vancouver, Washington for a year. Shannon has worked in the travel agency business much of the

time since then. She continues as a corporate travel agent for

Casto Travel and works from her new home in Westby.

Mike and Shannon married in 2003 and have two children,

three year old, Cole, and five -month old, Rylie Rose. While

Mike enjoys fishing and hunting, he has been very busy doing

any number of carpentry projects around town which he is very

adept at. As a young mother, Shannon’s hobbies are limited

right now, but she does enjoy scrapbooking and decorating

when time allows her.

Cole loves horses and is

happy to be here so he can drive

by Ron Nelson’s several times a

day to see all the horses close

up. He also loves to visit the elevator with Grandpa Clifford

to see Danny, “the sucker man”.

He goes to preschool once a

week and is looking forward to

being a pirate on Halloween

while Rylie Rose will be con-

tent to stay home and hand out

candy on her first Halloween.

The Gebhardts see the move to Westby as a positive one.

For one thing, Mike no longer has a 70 mile commute one way

from their former home in Loveland to Denver every day to

work. Also, the city was just getting too big and both Mike and

Shannon felt it would be better to get back to a smaller commu-

nity with home town values. It also doesn’t hurt to have

Grandpa and Grandma around to help out and both now feel

fortunate their children have the luxury of growing up with

family so close. Whatever the reason, Westby welcomes Shan-

non and her family home with open arms.

Our unit #229 meeting was called together at 1:30

on October 6, 2008 by President Christine Schmidt.

lowed the opening ceremony, in silence we offered

prayers for our war dead and for peace. In unison we

sang the National Anthem and said the Pledge, and

we recited our preamble.

Roll call was answered by 5 members and the Sec-

retary gave the minutes of our September meeting.

The Treasurer read us our bank statement and both

approved.

Christine Schmidt called for donations – we de-

cided to give to Miles City V.A. to the Emergency

Fund, Children & Youth & Glendive. The Treas-

urer’s Bond was paid.

Our unit will visit the Nursing Home in Plenty-

brought by our ladies in Plentywood, and Christine

has taken care of having music that day.

Christine Barstad served chocolate cake and coffee

for refreshments.

Adeline Lagerquist



Boy, oh boy! Where did October go? Mine went

to California, western Montana and back to reality.

Needless to say, it has been great, but I’ve been play-

ing catch up ever since, so I do apologize for the late

issue. Due to the timing of this issue, the next two

month’s papers will be published on the second and

fourth weeks and that will put us up to the New Year

where I will try to get back on schedule.

I know you are dying to hear all about my trip to

California, my Grandson in particular. Of course, it

goes without saying, he is handsome, smart as a whip

and loves his Grandma and PaPa. We celebrated

Colton’s first birthday with a little barbeque with

friends and the neighbors. The balloons were the

biggest hit and his first taste of cake wasn’t bad ei-

ther. He is such a happy and content little boy it

really was such a treat to care for him while his Mom

and Dad worked and had a little time to themselves.

We miss him already and his Mom and Dad, too, but

will see them again at Christmas. From California

we ventured to Seeley Lake, Montana, for a wed-

ding. Carlee Leininger, daughter of former Westby

residents Shirlee (Petersen) & Lynn Leininger, was

married at Double Arrow Ranch and it was beautiful

(both she and the area). We were happy it worked

out for us to attend.

Once we were home it was back to reality with all

the things fall brings: hunting, hunters, the bazaar,

and my dear friend, Connie, leaving me for the win-

ter. Danny’s nephews and buddies and great-

nephews were here for their annual hunting trip

when we got home. They all hail from the Denver

area and are such a great bunch of guys. They all

truly appreciate the whole community and the fact

they are welcomed with open arms, not only by the

businesses, but also by the landowners. They are

very respectful of the land and to the landowners and

thus have a great relationship and nothing but good

to say about our community. Kind of nice to report

with some of the horror stories out there about the

hunters.

My walking buddy, Connie left me for the winter

and I really, really miss her when she is gone. She

and Hugh are off to Mesa for the winter and I wish

them a safe trip and healthy winter. One thing about

it, the next thing I know, the baby irises will be peek-

ing out and I’ll be getting a call, “Are you ready to

walk in the morning?” I’ll be waiting.

The bazaar will probably be over as you read this,

but the Lion’s Club bake and craft sale has been

scheduled for November this year so I hope everyone

finds time to support this worthwhile cause in some

way. They have struggled to find a time that doesn’t

conflict with school and other functions thus the

change in date. Mark your calendars for November

15th and get started on that Christmas list.

Speaking of fall, nothing represents it like pump-

kins and squash. Like asparagus in spring, berries in

the summer, and cranberries in winter, the first sight

of them in the stores brings a smile to my face and

conjures up thoughts that have been tucked away

since the previous season. We’ve had our fill of zuc-

chini and yellow summer now we can move on to the

wonderful fall varieties. Squash is so simple to pre-

pare and very versatile.



One of my favorite varieties is spaghetti. Yes, as its

name states, it can be used to replace pasta with your

favorite sauce on it, but it is so good just baked and

shredded with a little butter and lots of parmesan.

Buttercup and acorn are the most readily available

varieties here and both are very good baked with a

little butter and brown sugar or cubed and roasted

with olive oil. This time of year I enjoy squash soup.

Squash soup seems so seasonal I never think of it

until I’m at the store and the aisles are brimming

with the many available varieties. This recipe calls

for butternut, but I subbed in buttercup. The cayenne

pepper gives it the perfect kick.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP 6 T chopped onion

4 T margarine

6 cups peeled and cubed Butternut squash (I used

buttercup squash)

3 cups water

4 cubes chicken bouillon

½ t dried marjoram

¼ t black pepper

1/8 t cayenne pepper

2 (8oz) cream cheese

In a large saucepan, sauté onions in margarine until

tender. Add squash, water, bouillon, marjoram,

black and cayenne pepper. Bring to boil; cook 20

minutes or until squash is tender. Puree squash and

cream cheese in a blender in batches until smooth.

Return to saucepan, and heat through. Do not allow

to boil. Serves 6.

As I mentioned baked or roasted squash is a great

side for many entrees. Here is a simple, basic recipe

that can be made ahead of time and reheated before

serving.

ROASTED ACORN SQUASH with

CINNAMON BUTTER 2 acorn squash, unpeeled, quartered lengthwise, and

seeded

1 T olive oil

4 T butter

1/8 t cinnamon

Coarse salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed baking

sheet, toss squash with oil; season with salt and pep-

per. Arrange on sheet, cut side down, and roast until

easily pierced with a paring knife, 35-45 minutes. In

a small saucepan, melt butter over medium, stirring

until golden brown 4 to 6 minutes. Immediately

pour into a small bowl; stir in cinnamon. Place

squash on a serving platter, top with cinnamon but-

ter. Serves 8.

ENJOY FALL!

LIFE IS GOOD!

One Night in a Bad Inn by Christy Leskovar

Hostess: Shari Olson

To kick start the 08-09 year of the Westby Book Club, mem-

bers met to discuss the nonfiction work by Christy Leskovar. The settings of this 570 page book literally span the globe from

a homestead near Forsyth, Montana to the bloody battlefields of

WWI to end up back in the rough and tumble city of Butte, MT.

Leskovar’s story of her maternal great-grandparents and grand-

parents truly had a little something for every reader.

The story comes alive through the eyes of Leskovar’s grand-

mother, Aila. She truly led an almost unbelievable life. During

her early years, Aila is forced to accompany her siblings to the

state orphanage in Twin Bridges, MT when her mother is jailed

on murder charges following the suspicious death of Aila’s

father when their home burned down on their ranch outside of Forsyth. Without giving away too many details of the plot, the

circumstances of his “death” are very interesting.

Following Aila’s stay in the state run orphanage, she spends her

adolescent years in Butte, where she meets her future husband

Peter. Before Peter and Aila marry, he is shipped off to the

European fronts of WWI. While there, he becomes a highly

decorated American soldier. The author follows her grandfa-

ther’s trek across the battlefields of Europe. During this portion

of the book, I felt the author became bogged down in too much

historical detail of WWI. But if you like WWI history, you will enjoy this chunk of Leskovar’s literary work.

The rest of this impressive tome follows the life of Peter and

Aila as they fought to raise a family in the Butte, MT during the

first half the 20th Century. Just like the city of Butte itself, their

life was always interesting but never easy. Reading about Butte

during its mining heyday will fascinate any reader.

Leskovar’s book reads like a historical thriller, which makes it

all the better because it is the fascinating, true account of the

lives of her family members. It was recommended by all in

attendance at the September book club gathering.

THANK YOU Thank you-Bruce, Lance, Marty & families for put-

ting on a party for us on our 50th wedding anniver-

sary. Also, thanks to Marlene and Dale for the corsages, beautiful centerpiece & balloons. The

Prairie Kitchen, for the wonderful supper. Carrie, for

the beautiful cake. Thanks to the people for the pre-

sents, phone calls & cards that we received from eve-ryone.

Richard & Renetta Westgard

THANK YOU We would like to thank everyone who sent cards, flow-

ers, food, or those who telephoned or visited after we lost

our Mom. Special thanks to Pastors Greg, Ben, and Barb for their assistance with her service. Our thanks to Dr.

Stoner and hospital staff and David and Jane Fulk-

erson. Thank you to all our friends and family who

helped and supported us. The Family of Louise Nordhagen

Julie Wittmayer. They were married at Immanuel Lu-

theran Church in Wesby, Montana on the 14th day of

January in the year of 1968. While stationed at Sel-

fridge AFB Michigan they were blessed with their

unending love. Dave “Grandpa" taught each of his

granddaughter's his secret recipe for homemade Her-

tionally each year. He also devoted one day a week

“If winter is slumber and spring is birth, and summer is life, then autumn rounds out to be reflection. It's a time of year when the leaves are down and the

harvest is in and the perennials are gone. Mother Earth just closed up the

drapes on another year and it's time to reflect on what's come before. “
