A new baby is taking his first breaths of life with this new year at Madison this morning. This baby is called Charlie Clyde and he is perfect, has all of his life ahead of him, and he is anxious to learn and to grow. Cicely and Trevor are the center of this baby’s life. He loves them, and they will be the main people that he trusts and relies on potentially forever. His lips and nose come from Cicely, and the size of his feet and long fingers come from Trevor. As a first time father with a 16-month daughter, I have learned a few things about babies to include in my aspirations for this new year. Babies are loving. When I come home, I receive a big gum revealing smile. Then she wants me to be a part of her life, and jabbers nonsense to me or pulls me to play with her. Babies...

The Madison Memorial staff has lost over 500 pounds through our Biggest Loser competition! Congratulations Rosa for being our winner! How did she do it?

The smoke may not be completely gone from the air here in Southern Idaho, but it has certainly cleared up since last week. Once again we can see blue skies without having to squint through the smoke. This is good news not only for the better views but for our health as well. Smokey air can cause health issues. I’m sure most of us were coughing or feeling more lightheaded than usual as we breathed in the smoke. And those with previous breathing problems felt even more side effects. While times seem to be improving, it doesn’t hurt to be prepared for additional smoke. Right now there are still over 50 wildfires burning throughout the U.S., which can be seen at activefiremaps.fs.fed.us. Since most of them are in Washington, Montana, and Idaho, we need to be prepared if smoke or fires come this way. Attending Idaho PREPAREdness Expo on September 19th can...
