Yes, I checked yesterday and the Christmas tree display at the Centennial Centre isn't up until next week or like the start of the first week of December. Speaking of which did you know that we're only one month away - that's only 30 days from Christmas Day. Have you got your shopping done yet? I haven't started. Its going to be crazy. Three grandson's to buy for two lovely little granddaughters and four kids and their spouses or significant others. Oh and I better not forget the Missus. HO HO HO a shopping we will go.

My condolences go out to the Kindraka family on the recent passing of Alex Kindraka. My dad and I sold Alex's purebred Hereford production sales for years - first in our auction market in St. Paul and then Alex built a great sales barn out at the farm north of Glendon and the sales continued their with his wife Nellie and the daughters in law and friends providing the meal afterward and a couple of the guys playing guitar and daughter Carie Anne singing after the sale. Glendon Pine Herefords were classic dark red, big framed cattle that always had great buyer demand selling to buyers across Alberta and points beyond. Prayers for Alex will be held in the Glendon RCMP Hall on Thursday, November 25 at 7 p.m. The funeral service will take place in the same location the following day at 10 a.m. Rest in peace Alex.
