Cheers:
Cheers to Redhead Equipment for providing a huge tractor and an operator to pull the docks out of the mud at Rafferty Marina. The docks were stuck big-time.
Cheers to all those who know how to bake chocolate chip cookies, brownies and cinnamon rolls, and for passing on that knowledge to others.
Cheers to the City of Estevan for cleaning snow off of the King Street sidewalk and Pleasantdale Valley pathway. It makes for an enjoyable and safe walk outside.
Cheers to the Estevan Chamber of Commerce for having the all-candidates forums for the provincial and civic election. Hearing the candidates’ thoughts, and seeing how they think on the fly, helps voters to make a decision.
Cheers to all of the wonderfully decorated homes we saw in the city prior to Halloween. Hopefully we see these homes, and others, looking great for Christmas.
Cheers to everybody that is wearing a poppy prior to Remembrance Day. Just because we can’t attend a service this year doesn’t mean we shouldn’t wear a poppy.
Cheers to St. Giles Anglican Church for serving a fowl supper this year. Even though we didn’t get to enjoy it together, the food was still great.
Jeers:
Jeers to customers who come into stores and don’t follow the guidelines of either wearing a mask or social distancing. Some people are starting to feel unsafe at work.
Jeers to those who were driving around recklessly last Tuesday when a layer of ice was coating the roads. Slow down and drive smart in those conditions.
Jeers to the lack of uncertainty for how many fans can attend Estevan Bruins games this season, and to fans upset with the Bruins over how they’re handling crowd restrictions. This isn’t their fault. And now they have the headache of trying to accommodate 150 fans when they sold 600 season tickets.
