Trying to make a difference is what it’s all about for two former Westby graduates, Chelsey Myhre-Foster, Claire Brown and their friend John Silvers of Boscobel, who will be traveling to Nicaragua in March to work with underprivileged people, who aren’t looking for a hand- out, just some help getting life on track.

OPINION
|
|
As I was snowshoeing on the trails at Norskedalen near Coon Valley, the silence that surrounded me was very welcome after a hectic week. I was the only person in the whole place on a beautiful Saturday morning when hoarfrost covered the trees and transformed everything into a winter wonderland. As I hiked uphill and down, across streams, and watched deer watching me, I started thinking about how much our world has changed in the last 100 years.
