Tim's Tip of the Day

Tisdale and most rural towns have swimming pools. Pools that are well maintained and properly supervised. A perfect place to spend a hot summer day. Today two school bus loads of people came in to Tisdale to enjoy the pool from Kinistin Reserve.(Click on thumb nail to see full size.)

Find of the day

Lady Gaga went to geek camp, too
Several American universities run special summer camps for gifted children. John Hopkins and Duke have such camps that challenge the gifted kid in a whole range of subjects and skills. Most require a grade seven kid to have past a SAT test with 50% or better and cost between $4,225 to $2,195. Lady Gaga attended several summers.

Happenings In Tisdale:

Replacing water main on 107th Avenue
Wednesday
August 4, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire

 
Tisdale: A full block of water main is about to be replaced as Tisdale attempts to reduce the number of water breaks by removing cast iron lines and replacing them with plastic. At the present rate this process is expected to take decades to finish the task.
 
 
Mid summer
Monday
August 2, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire

 
Tisdale: Sunny weather, forest fires in B.C. seems par for the course at this time of the year. Still almost four weeks until school re-opens and time enough to still catch West Nile Virus.
Avonlea is Riderville
Thursday

by: Matthew Shire

 
Avonlea: Here is a photo essay of 100 pictures that show what the people of Avonlea have done in their town to decorate and win the right to be called Riderville. This is part of a competition between Saskatchewan towns for the honour and Avonlea is one of the five finalists.
Rafters for house ten
Tuesday
July 27, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire

 
Tisdale: Begun on June 21 this is the first house to be built in what is Tisdale's newest developing part of town. Last year water and sewer services were installed on what will in time become a new street just east of Heritage Road. This is a fairly big house sitting atop a wood basement with a south view.
Ploughing it under
Monday

by: Timothy W. Shire

 
Tisdale: More showers yesterday added to the difficulty of even destroying the illfated crop of 2010. Fields right around Tisdale are to wet for farmers to work the ruined crop down but in other areas farmers are busy at the task.
Locally generated weather
Friday
July 23, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire

 
Tisdale: With so much water laying in the fields day time heating each day fills the skies with rising towering cumulus clouds as the evaporating moisture climbs into the atmosphere and forms clouds at the condensation level.
Housing start eight, a duplex
Tuesday
July 20, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire

 
Tisdale: Tucked in between the Maple Ridge Condo and the other dwelling on the block a new duplex is taking shape with the almost all of the internal and external walls standing. On monday house eleven got underway as a new basement was created on the Fairy Glen cul-de-sac.
Some clouds and fields
Thursday
July 15, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire

 
Tisdale: These pictures taken over the last few days show the Canola crops in bloom and the awesome forces that trundle through the prairie sky. The accompanyment is "Badaboom" from the sound track of the movie "The Fifth Element" by Eric Serra.
Flowers and a robin
Tuesday
July 13, 2010
by: Matthew Shire

 
Regina: One evening a week ago Matthew wandered around his Regina yard with camera in hand and collected this interest group of thirty-four images. These images were taken with a Canon Rebel and a telophoto lens. However, the robin was unpreturbed by his picture taking and was about five to six feet away in these pictures. We present these images in a slide show accompanied by Diana Krall's Narrow Daylight from "The Girl in the other room" album.
'30 Rock' Saskatchewan Express
Monday
July 12, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire

 
Greenwater Water Lake Provincial Park: Each year Saskatchewan Express tours Saskatchewan's provincial parks and they were in the midst of that tour this past Friday when they performed to a really big crows at Greenwater. Each year's show is distinctive with the character of the performers coming through. This year is no exception with this being their thirtieth anniversary the show was just under an hour and a half pact with hits and non-stop action on stage.
