The most recent issue of the Minnedosa Tribune carried a very encouraging front page story.The Minnedosa Tribune is by the way the oldest community newspaper in Western Canada and is privately owned by Darryl Holyk. Privately owned papers are the best kind as I have stated many times and the Tribune is no exception.The Trib鈥檚 front page story outlines extensive plans for a new medical clinic in Minnedosa. It鈥檚 long overdue. Just as the renovated and then expanded medical clinic in Neepawa was long overdue, the community owned clinic in Minnedosa has been 鈥渢alked about鈥� for a long time.

As I completed the last trek of the day with my four footed friends - three laps around the tear drop drive 鈥� the day had passed before me as a slow Power Point presentation. It was good, really quite great. In the morning I carefully spot treated a couple of white pieces of apparel and hung them outside to dry. Cleaned, well, tidied, my bedroom. It had become a catch all, and had caught a fair bit. I tried changing the placement of the furniture, but ended up, after a thorough cleaning, putting everything back where it came from. Spent a bit of time trimming the lilacs. I used to do that in one fell swoop but this year, well, there wasn鈥檛 any rush and so over a three day period I snipped and clipped away at them. Did get the debris all transported to the burning pile. Broke for a bowl of soup with friends. Friendship, rest and back to work.

Driving through 水果视频 on the Trans Canada Highway, you could be forgiven for thinking that there isn鈥檛 much to 水果视频. Except for a few sections, it鈥檚 a lot of wide open, flat prairie. Even 水果视频ns, who know that there is more to our province than wide expanses of flat, can get caught up in thinking that there isn鈥檛 much here.
