Mothers feted on their special day

I'm home from a two-week stay at my son's in Cold Lake, Alta. His wife's mother passed away and they were attending her funeral in Trenton, Ont. While there I had to shovel snow two times. It's not spring yet.
Western Days will be a rocking good time

Western Days will be a rocking good time

I can hardly believe we are nearing the end of May. Of course, the unseasonable weather doesn't help the mind and body recognize spring or pending summer.

Sharing cards and fellowship

Cards were played at the Maidstone Drop In Centre May 12 with a better turnout than usual. Bev Stewart hosted, chose cribbage to be played and provided lunch. High score went to Denise Newton and low to Bev.

Field work hits the ground running

Spring is really here! Extensive seeding and other field work has been done during the past week. The leaves have been slow coming out. Last Wednesday one could see the slight greening on the trees and a couple of warmer days have brought them out.

Entertaining times for residents

May is just flying by for us at Caleb Village and we are having a great time. Our residents are busy working on puzzles, playing cards, going for walks at our nearby park and playing Wii bowling, just to name a few activities.

Moisture hampering farming operations

Moisture hampering farming operations

The area farmers are trying to get the crop in without getting stuck, however with the rain that we are getting it is hard for them to miss those wet spots. The roads are soft and breaking up so it is making it difficult as well.
Village coming alive with summer people

Village coming alive with summer people

The long weekend found lots of traffic and garage sales in the village and many summer folks opening their cabins or bringing in their trailers and getting them parked for the summer months. The dust isn't bad yet after the nice rain we had Thursday.
