📰 Most-clicked stories this week
Western heritage comes alive: Cache Valley Cowboy Rendezvous will run March 12 to 14 at the Cache County Event Center, headlined by Skip Ewing, and most activities are free thanks to RAPZ tax — check out the full lineup.
Skates and Olympic inspiration: Utah’s Every Kid Outdoors has launched its 2026 Adventure Challenge, inviting ages 3 to 18 to complete 15 adventures statewide, with a summer event planned in Logan Canyon for families — see what’s planned for 2026.
Civic learning and engagement: Logan City announced on Feb. 20 a yearlong America 250 celebration, with events around Independence Day and Pioneer Day. The library will host programs, and employees pledged 75,000 hours — see what’s planned for 2026.
Nothing prepares you for a pet emergency: I learned that the hard way after charging $10k to a credit card for life-saving surgery on my cat, Miss Stache. As soon as we got home, I signed up for Spot. It’s super affordable – and reimburses up to 90% of the bill.
Compare rates for free: The national average for car insurance is around $175/month. Paying more than that? Same, so I did some shopping around and ended up cutting my premium in half. If you haven’t checked in a while, you’re probably overpaying too — here’s the comparison tool I used.

🏆 Gold and silver are heating up
Together with our sponsor American Hartford Gold
Gold just posted its strongest run in decades… and the momentum is carrying into 2026. Silver has become one of the most talked-about assets as investors look for ways to stay ahead of market volatility.
While many are still sitting on the sidelines, others are quietly repositioning.
If you’re wondering whether you’re missing something, AHG has a free guide explaining what’s driving the renewed interest… and how investors are approaching precious metals right now.
It’s free and worth reading before the next move.

🫶 This week’s top finds
Chill without the chamber: Skip the nitrogen pod and reset with a cold plunge, infrared sauna, and red light at Salt & Sauna. This low-key hideout helps locals rebound from workouts, ease stress, and sleep deeper… the kind of chill that loosens shoulders without the fuss.
Polish your weekday glow: Hyde Park Med Spa mixes small-town warmth with legit results. Think facials, brows and lashes, microneedling, and subtle injectables, plus an in-house skincare lineup to keep momentum going. Their team nudges complexions from fine to you-look-rested…effortlessly approachable, never overdone.
Twirl-worthy midweek plan: When the carb craving hits, Jack’s Wood Fired Oven serves legit pasta like creamy pesto cavatappi or sausage marinara, plus a cozy vibe that makes catching up easy. File it under “why cook tonight” and let the comfort food do the heavy lifting.
Thinning hair? It only gets worse: A few months ago, I noticed my ponytail getting thinner. I tried the usual stuff (biotin, shampoo, etc.) but mostly just hoped it would fix itself… until I learned that active follicles can permanently go dormant if you don’t do something about it. The good news? You can get treatment that actually works with no office visits or trips to the pharmacy. Learn more about my favorite online options here.

Someone Googled you this week 👀
It may feel like an invasion of privacy, but unfortunately It’s the new normal. Whether you’re joining a committee, selling something locally, dating again, or just meeting new neighbors… people are going to look you up online.
Like it or not, the internet has a way of surfacing past mistakes and outdated information that no longer reflects who you are.
Thankfully, there’s a really easy way for you – or someone you care about – to clean up outdated results that no longer tell the real story. Learn more here.
