A correction on the spelling of a name I put in last week's paper. The photo caption should have identified Wes Kowalchuk of Saskatoon.
I experienced a 5.3 magnitude earthquake in the early hours of Feb. 12. My trailer shook and I wondered if it was a dream. The next morning a neighbour was asking everyone what we thought this was. Google identified a small town, El Centro California 60 miles from Yuma, Ariz. as the site of an earthquake. Approximately four years ago, at one of our dances on a Friday night, an earthquake occurred and our drinks on the hall tables jiggled and some spilt over. Some were dancing and the large hall dance floor shook. Some facts on earthquakes worldwide: 118 in the last 24 hours;133 in the past seven days; 178 within the past 30 days; and 996 in the last 365 days.
Deepest sympathy to Dora Brown and Victor Pushee and their spouses on the passing of their sister Dorothy Bachelder of Prince Albert. She is also a sister-in-law to Glen (Sheila ) Bachelder of Mullingar. Both Dora and Victor farm in the Mayfair area.
Ash Wednesday falls on Valentine’s Day this year. Ash Wednesday kicks off the Lenten season as Easter is celebrated on the last Sunday in March. Before we know it spring will be here with crocuses dotting the prairie landscape.
