Road and weather conditions frustrating for travellers

Good grief, how did it get to be mid-January already? It seems like we were just enjoying Christmas. I know one thing I haven't been enjoying, and that's winter.

What do you do when you find your forever home? You give back to it. That's Leah Milton's belief, and she has been living that belief in the Battlefords now for almost 20 years.

Ignore the cold! On to 2014

The holiday season is winding down for another year, and thanks to the Battlefords and area, 382 local families had a better season than they might have without the help of the Empty Stocking Fund.

2014, wow where did that time go. Happy New Year, everyone! Wishing you all much health and happiness. Winter weather was predominant throughout Christmas. A bizarre snowstorm Dec.

Days lengthen, winter strengthens

Happy New Year to all! As we roll into the year 2014, we wish good things and peace to be a part of the lives of all people. Arlee Lumgair spent the Christmas holiday with some of her family at Meadow Lake.
Area Christmas programs enjoyed

Area Christmas programs enjoyed

High score at Canasta, played Dec. 20, went to John Soloninko and Charles Walker, but a good time was enjoyed by everyone who played at the Do Drop In that evening. This is held every second Friday evening and anyone is welcome to join in.

Former residents keep in touch

Keith and Eileen Evans spent Christmas Day with their daughter, Karen, her husband Brian Sjoberg and their daughters in Lloydminster. Terry and René Pike and daughter, Lexi, returned home Dec. 27 after enjoy a week's golfing trip to points south.

Carol sing a seasonal treat

Alec Jeffrey is home after spending some time in Maidstone Hospital. We wish him continued return to good health. On Sunday afternoon, Dec. 15, the Lutheran Church sponsored a carol sing at Waseca Hall.

Winter is now 'officially' here

My thermometer presently reads -30 C. This is the second very cold spell we have experienced and winter only began, Dec. 21.

Reflecting on the year that was

The new year is here and as usual we take the chance to have a look over our shoulders at all the things that in January 2013 we did or promised we would. It seemed as the year passed by it has left a great taste in the mouth.
