Armed with this information, a little apprehension, and tremendous curiosity, I decided to scope out our neighborhood's retail areas to see what other people were doing. I first went into a drug store. There were a handful of people in the store. https://dailyxetaithaco.com/ and I approached the register at the same time and we both offered to let the other go first. He was very courteous. I did not see anything out of the ordinary there.
Plus, illegal immigration has provided another source of cheap labor that drives down wages. Everyone from construction workers to truck drivers make less money because of the abundant supply of cheap labor provided by illegal immigration.
The population of the district rose upwards of 10,000 by some estimates. In 1870, Forest City, on Cedar Creek itself, reached a population of over 7,000 and was considered a commerce center for many towns in the area including Missoula. As in any gold rush, whiskey flowed, fortunes were made and lost and lives were forever changed.
Foul weather, food shortages and hazardous conditions did not deter those who suffered gold fever. Within the month the snow-packed drainage was parceled into nearly 2,500 separate claims. Tempers ran high, violence was common place and claim jumping was rampant. An estimated 3,000 men wintered that year in the gulch and it was visited by three times that many more. That first winter it was men only as there were no women on the creek in 1869.

The trip to bury Grandma next to Grandpa passed in a blur. The funeral was a short and simple one. Mary Henry was still recovering at the hospital, but her three children came to honor Grandma. A few friends from church and the seniors' center also came. Both of Grandma's sisters lived in Michigan and neither one was healthy enough to travel.
My husband called me this morning to tell me that the national gas station chain at the top of our street had all of their pumps covered up. The store was open, but he could not get gas. Since he had a gift card to this national chain he decided to go to the station that was one exit down on the highway. When thaco ollin got there he found the same thing. We were not sure what that meant but he told me that if I needed gas then I should get it today.
