I'll ask her. They used to have the store at Lanes. Was it John and Violet Durnan? I think she was more around the Lucknow Dungannon area.

Now you've gotten my curiosity up. I'm a poor one for remembering names, but I'm going to take a drive up there someday soon and see if that store is still running. I used to stop by there for my Pepsi and icecream when I was working in those parts. That was in the early 80's. I always liked those little stores because that's what my folks ran when I was a little kid.


Oh, the memories!

May 7, Meadow Lake is the place to be-were going to make a bowl of Mac and Cheese for the Guiness Record Book-there's going to be lots of other stuff going on for the next stage. CBC will be there filming also-can't wait.

Hockeyville is taking a distant back seat to Cpl. Dinning's funeral tomorrow. Wingham is going to be a very busy spot with the 2-3000 expected visitors doubling the town's population for the day.

There were military folks there today getting the arena set up for the funeral. The parents must be going through the most harrowing experience of their lives.

I cannot imagine. Their son was the same age as our oldest at 22-23 years of age.

Our rodeo parade them this year is Hockeyville so our 4H club is playing shinny in front of the float-here's my helmet-lot easier to split the 'D' when you can run a horn into them-my wife has been busy all day shellacing our special cow pie pucks. Were going to glitterpaint 'Hockeyville' across our bucking bulls butts for the rodeo and they all get 'Enforcer' names for the rodeo. Domi is little and hooky and Laraque is big,black and droppy. Be sure to vote Meadow Lake on June 6, 8'00 P'M on CBC.

I think your going to be in tough against Pilot Mound, NR. There story behind building their areana is pretty darn special. But then again once they see you in those horns Meadow Lake will win!!
