Looking west from Tisdale on the CN line at 11:00 this morning
Cleanup going well
Tuesday
January 26, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire

 
Tisdale: The school buses ran today for Tisdale's schools and almost all of the streets in the community are passable but that is not the case with the country roads. The cleanup is going quite well but a steady drifting wind blew all day from the west causing problems for north and south country roads.

Tim's Tip of the Day

The freezing rain was to the southern part of Saskatchewan on the weekend but our power lines would be far more secure and cost less to maintain were they buried underground. (Click on thumb nail to see full size.)

Find of the day

Affordable living in Vancouver is 270 sq. ft. in Downtown Eastside
An apartment with kitchen and bathroom the size of two parking spaces will rent for $675 a month in a rather seedy part of downtown Vancouver. Created in a condemned building with the help of the city these micro apartments are inteended for people earning $25,000 a year.

Happenings In Tisdale:

It stormed a bit
Monday
January 25, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire

Images by: Judy and Timothy Shire
 
Tisdale: The storm that enveloped all of southern and central Saskatchewan left a good deal of snow behind it the most we have seen dumped in Tisdale in the past 15 years. This however, the part of January when such storms are common and no one was particularily surprised other then for once Environment Canada actually got this one right.
The Greenwater report

Saskatoon: Like the rest of in Saskatchewan the weather definitely got Gerald attention and like most drivers he had get out there and try driving in difficult conditions only to get stuck in his driveway. But, he survived and lived to tell us the tale for another week.
There's got to be a reason
Tuesday
January 19, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale:
Many folks who take their religion seriously quite honestly believe that it is not for us humble and clearly limited humans to understand the great mysteries and we must accept that all things are part of Gods plan. That makes a good story but little by little the fog of awareness creeps forward as we are able to glean more and more about our past which indeed explains our present and future. This doesn't mean all things are cleared up it just means we are ever finding out new truths.

Saskatoon:
Gerald gives us some insight into the recent mild winter we have been enduring and gives us something to think about as the news of our world saddens each day with more very bad news from Haiti.
This is what it means to be a Canadian
Wednesday
January 13, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale:
The devastation and tragic loss of life in Haiti affects us because we are a nation of immigrants who share life on this planet with others who are at time faced with massive challenges and it is for us to reach out give a hand and do the right thing.
First house of 2010

Tisdale:
Near the end of October the house on this lot was destroyed by fire and now a new house stands in its place.
Mexican December holiday

Kamloops:
Michael Townsend has contributed to this web site since its beginning in 1998. Through the years he has taken us mountain climbing and on numerous trips. This time he shares with us his pictures of his Christmas vacation in Mexico.
The Greenwater report

Saskatoon:
This week's report chronicals the repair of a tire with a nail in it and the passing of a friend. This week's report has some pictures from the Park.
Somebody else's problem

Highway #6:
Though the phenomena had been noticed by many before it was humourist writer Douglas Adams in his Hitchhiker's Guide, Life, the Universe and Everything that he described a common effect or field that happens when everyone it seems ignores the obvious.
Maybe its time for an election
Wednesday
January 6, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale:
For the second year in a row the Prime Minister for reasons known only to himself has shut down parliament. Without the hustle of the daily question period and being called on the actions he and his government takes they can put their feet up and there is nothing anyone can do about it. If he does not want to be Prime Minister in a democracy then perhaps its time he had an opportunity to go back to his separatist roots in Calgary.

Saskatoon:
After taking a break for the holidays the Crawfords are back with us this week filling us in on their activities over the holidays. They went to and enjoyed a performance at Persephone Theatre, enjoyed time with family and friends and on Christmas toured the Enchanted Forest which will be open to tours until January 10th.
A new year and a new decade
Wednesday
December 30, 2009
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale:
There is no known cure for the continuous pressure of time. So it is that once again a year and a decade draws to a close and we must look into the coming year and the coming decade to consider what may befall us as time moves onward. This tradtion of making predictions for the coming year extends backward through the history of this web site and far beyond that. There have been times when the predictions have come to pass and other times when the future was simply of the specs. This year will be no better and perhaps no worse than others.
We call it Christmas
Wednesday
December 23, 2009
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale:
This truly one of those things that seems remarkably unrelated to its name. Evergreen trees decorated, Father Christmas, Santa Claus, Frosty the snowman, Rudolph the Rednosed reindeer, mistletoe, holly, gift giving, egg nog. . . the list is endless and all of these familiar things are only marginally related to the birth of Jesus of Nazareth 2009 years ago, give a decade one way or the other. So indeed what is this "season" really all about?
