I read nine books in July, six of which were four stars or better, and (sadly?) none of which I’d consider a “su...
by Sanders County Fair Board The 2023 PRCA Rodeo is coming to the Sanders County Fair August 31 – September 2 and it’s bound to bring some big name riders again this year. Top riders have been competing in our rodeo for years, which is such a treat for how inexpensive it is to attend. The world’s current top three saddle bronc riders – Montana-made Sage Newman, Zeke Thurston, and Stetson Wright – all rode at the Plains PRCA Rodeo in 2022. On bareback we had another Montana-grown favorite Caleb Bennett (currently #25 in the world standings...

Authorites removed the reduced speed limit on Highway 28 between Elmo and Lonepine, but urge drivers to use caution as firefighters and equipment are still working in the area.

July was dry and unseasonably hot! The market was not quite as hot with pretty level inventory levels, growing days on market and inventory levels up over a year as far as months of supply absorption rate. Interest rates continue to rise, which is affecting the market as well. We have seen a lot of price reductions, but steady value on sold properties thus far.
