This heat makes living a bit more complicated, even going for a walk is harder.
Meota has probably never seen more traffic on the long weekend, as it is having this year. The campers and many kinds of watercraft come and go. The parking down near the boat dock is carried back along the streets, as there are so many boats going onto the lake. I have never seen so much traffic on the lake as there was on Sunday. Every cabin or house has extra vehicles, many with out-of-province licence plates.
Coffee at the Do Drop In on Wednesday morning was interesting with about a dozen folks enjoying getting out and about again, and enjoying the new deck at the back.
The removal of the old house at the corner of the street at the park entry drew a few folks who watched as it was demolished and hauled away. This building was likely about 100 years old, as I recall going there when in my teens. A fairly well-known artist lived there.
July 26, afternoon bridge at the Do Drop In found Vern Iverson in first place. Eric Callbeck was second and Warren Iverson was third. July 27, in the city in the afternoon, first place went to Vern Iverson. In second was Fraser Glen and there was a three-way tie for third Anna Waldbillig, Cletus and Donna Scherman. Tied for fourth were Gerry Craig and Margaret Dyck and fifth was Linda Ard. July 29, evening bridge in the city had three tables in play. Top score was by Eric Callbeck and Fraser Glen. Tied for second and third were Dave Creegan and Margaret Dyck and Vern Iverson and David Sharpe.
Canasta was hosted in the Do Drop In on Friday evening with four tables in play. Top score went to Eric Callbeck and Bev McCrimmon. Second were Joyce Luckey and Barbara Soloninko and third were Paulette Neale and Lorna Pearson. Everyone was happy to get out and see their old friends after such a long period of 小蓝视频 shut down.
There are still signs from the vicious wind storm in trees broken off and still some cleanup to do.
The rain showers have freshened things up but don’t think it was likely enough to help the crops.
There are either some people letting their dogs run loose or there are some irresponsible dog owners as there seems to be droppings not picked up in several places I’ve walked recently. This does not give our village a clean slate and is a concern where children play.
