Dear Editor,

Sitting watching the pa-rade on July 1, I was thinking how odd all of this seemed. Having just returned from a long stretch in a third world country, I was seeing things that maybe I used to miss. Instead of poor women sweeping the streets with improvised brooms, a man driving a machine went past our house three times cleaning the route for the parade. Th e street itself was as wide as a four lane high-way overseas, and much better paved despite be-ing an ordinary city street.

Th en the parade started and the oddness continued. Huge, bright red fi re trucks – all for a city of 8,000, far more machines than our city of 1 ½ million had. Even the Village of Dalum had a beautiful machine bigger than anything in our adopt-ed country. Behind the fi re engines were ambulances and paramedics – well kept machines and well-trained people, when so many people there have to make do with hoping a volunteer ambulance will show up in time and not demand too much money for the trip to the hospital. Instead of a group of slovenly and poor-ly trained policemen, twelve RCMP marched past and people were happy to see them. Getting stopped by a traffi c cop over there meant assuming the cop was wrong and wanted a bribe, so an argument ensued or

most people phoned an in-fl uential friend to get off the hook. I have to remember not to argue with our police here! Th ose were just a few of the things that seemed strange. Th e parade route was advertised in advance, in newspapers that almost everyone here could read if they wanted to. Th e route was cleared and traf-fi c stayed off those streets. People sat respectfully along the streets and ap-plauded often. Th ere was nothing political about the event, despite the presence of our MP, who incidentally was not riding in a bullet-proof car surrounded by armed guards. After the parade, people picked up their chairs and headed off to home or to barbecues, leaving behind nothing smashed or damaged. How odd. How wonderful!

I get asked a lot if I am glad to be back in Canada. Yeah, I am. Th ere is a whole lot I miss about our adopted country over there, but I am glad to be here, to a large extent because I brought back with me a new sense of gratitude and apprecia-tion for just how blessed we are to live here. And don’t get me started on how green everything is ... Rod Black,Drumheller Editor’s Note: Mr. Black grew up in Drumheller and off ers an amazing set of compar-risons in his letter. He and his family have returned to Drumheller after many years away and we welcome their comments.

Th e Drumheller Institu-tion will see bed expansion in both their medium and minimum security units, with work scheduled to be-gin late this summer. Public Works and Gov-ernment Services Canada said the design for a 96 bed expansion in the jail’s medi-um security unit has already been complete, and tenders will be accepted sometime in July for a 50 bed expan-sion of the minimum secu-rity units. Tenders will be posted shortly for a 40 day period, said Jeanette Doti-mas of Public Works and Government Services Can-ada. “As with the 96 bed me-dium security units, work

on the 50 bed units will be completed by the end of the 2012-2013 fi scal year,” said Dotimas. Construction contracts are anticipated to be award-ed in August, with on-site work to start late this sum-mer. Construction work is expected to take 16 months. “We expect on-site work for the 50 bed units to com-

mence this fall, and the work to be completed by the end of the 2012-2013 fi scal year.” Th e federal government announced this summer that it was investing $50 million in the expansions at both Drumheller and Bowden Institutions, but Dotimas said it would be inappropriate to comment

on how much these expan-sions would cost as the con-tracts have not been award-ed. She said off ering sepa-rate tenders for Bowden and Drumheller will allow for greater competition and greater opportunity for completion within the con-struction schedule.

New 80-million-year-old marine predator discovered by Tyrrellsubmitted | inSide Drumheller

After fi ve years of research, Dr. Takuya Konishi of the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontol-ogy and colleague Dr. Michael Caldwell from the University of Alberta concluded that the mosasaurs they were studying – a group of large marine liz-ards that dominated the waters 90 - 65 million years ago – con-formed to none of the previous-ly known kinds. Instead, they determined these mosasaurs belonged to an entirely new ge-nus. “By carefully comparing the specimens of the new mosasaur Latoplatecarpus with those of a previously know genus, Plate-carpus, it became clear that Latoplatecarpus represents a geologically younger and slightly more advanced animal,”

explains Dr. Konishi. “Look-ing down on the skull, for ex-ample, it has a pair of anteriorly diverging processes past the eye sockets, a unique feature shared among all the advanced members of the lineage that in-cludes both the new mosasaur and Platecarpus, but the feature is absent from the latter.” Its name, Latoplatecarpus willistoni, was derived from “lato”, Latin for “broad” to in-dicate the anteriorly widely separated nature of the afore-mentioned processes, and “wil-listoni”, in honour of an Ameri-can palaeontologist Samuel W. Williston, whose work on mosasaurs over a century ago founded the basis for the way researchers classify these ma-rine reptiles today. Currently, there are over sixty species of mosasaurs known.

Th is new discovery will add to the growing diversity of this uniquely aquatic group

of lizards, and will likely help researchers understand the mechanisms behind the evolu-tionary and ecological success of mosasaurs. Th is is the fi rst time since 2005 that a new ge-

nus has been established in mo-sasaurs worldwide. Th e paper was published on July 12 in the Journal of Verte-brate Paleontology.

After fi ve years of research, scientists at the Tyrrell museum have discovered a new genus of the mo-sasaur, a marine predator that prowled the seas be-tween 90 to 65 million years ago.

A local woman spent “four days in hell” after a scammer posing as a Microsoft em-ployee gained access to her credit card information and home computer. Th e Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre has said they’ve re-ceived 3,200 complaints over the scam, where the solic-

ited caller says they work for a software company, in this case Microsoft. Coral Bickford received the call last Th ursday morn-ing from a person supposedly from Microsoft who led her to believe they’d found virus-es on her computer. Th ey knew her name and knew she had a Windows

Vista computer at home. “Th ey said, ‘We’ve learned your computer is full of vi-ruses and it’s very bad’,” says Bickford. “Th ey were so persistent, I had grandbabies here and they kept saying they’d wait on the line.” Bickford was convinced to allow the caller remote ac-cess to her computer, and after an hour and a half into the conversation she agreed to give them her credit card information. When she gave them her postal code, it did not work for the caller for whatever reason. “Th ey got kind of upset with me, and asked if I could use somebody else’s Master-Card... But nothing would work for them, thank god.” She fi nally had enough of the caller and hung up, but the scammers still had re-mote access into her com-puter for about three hours afterwards. Family visited Bickford lat-er that day and they told her she had been scammed. Taking place on Th urs-day, the Canada Day holiday meant the banks were closed until Monday of last week. “I went through four days of dread, I couldn’t sleep. I thought they had everything,” says Bickford. “I was pretty scared.” So far she has not heard of any charges to her account, but cancelled everything just in case. Th e scam calls have been reported by a number of peo-ple in the valley, with Bick-ford’s sister having received the call Tuesday and Magtech Computer Services warning its customers on Wednesday. “I am so lucky, thank god my MasterCard didn’t work or you would never know what could have happened.” Bickford hopes no one else has to go through what she did. “Th ey got me. We could’ve lost everything.” Microsoft warned PC users of the scam last month, say-ing about 3 per cent of Mi-crosoft users surveyed ended up following the scammers instructions. Of the large ma-jority of people who were de-ceived, 79 per cent lost mon-ey as a result of the scam. Microsoft provided a few tips to help prevent someone from being scammed: be sus-picious of unsolicited calls related to a security problem, never give out your personal information to such callers, don’t visit any websites or in-stall any software or follow instructions from someone who calls out of the blue, and use strong passwords and change them regularly.

Wasn’t it wonderful having the royals here? Th ey’re young, good look-ing, friendly, and thoughtful. Who could ask for more in a Prince and Princess? Th ey also make for very good press, not that you have to think too much, or write too much. You could fi ll whole pages with just photo-graphs and captions, which was the case a lot of the time. Th ere are few things that bother me about these royal visits, but the one thing that does bother me is seriously ridiculous. It’s the silly inane remarks made by so called fashion stylists praising the Princess for never losing her sense of fashion, and always looking stylish no matter what the occasion. Th ey remark on how she even repeated certain items, making the rest of us feel more human. It’s all a bit much. Th e woman likely has three or four attendants to help with her dressing, a walk in castle as a wardrobe, and a no limit credit card. Come on people, it’s not exactly Eliza Doolittle we’re working with here. Th e woman wore a white Smithbilt cowboy hat (thousands of others wear the same thing), blue jeans, a snap button blouse, and a pair of cus-tom made kangaroo leather cowboy boots from Alberta Boot Co. Put her in the infi eld with a mess of other pretty cowgirls, and she becomes indistinguishable. Her fashion sense is lost in a melee of hats, blouses and jeans, no worse, no better than most of those around her. So why am I wasting ink and paper? She’s a good looking girl who married up; he’s a good looking guy, born lucky. Despite all their advantages, much is expected of them. Th e Calgary Stampede, you’ve got to love it. It celebrates this prov-ince’s ties to the land. In its formative years, agriculture was the founda-tion of this province. Th e people of Alberta were sustained by what was produced in the backyard and out on the back 40. Th e land was broken by horse and plow, the swather was pulled by horses, and wagon loads of grain hauled by horses. Th e heavy horse was the heavy equipment of the day. Th e Calgary Stampede is better for the ranch, or cow horse, and all the activities related to what a cow horse does. Bucking, calf roping, steer wrestling, are all done from the back of a good cow horse. All these can be seen at any rodeo, and some are still part of ranch work, but the big, heavy horses, which were used to bring agriculture to this province are no longer needed, and so there is little chance to see them work. Th at is a shame, for to watch these big animals work in teams is a beautiful demonstration of sheer brute strength. Th ey are no less beautiful, no less intelligent than their smaller cousins. Th e Calgary Stampede recognizes these animals as part of its heritage. I salute them.

Drag racing comes full circle for LemalsKyle Smylie| inSide Drumheller

Drag racing is a family aff air for the Lemals. Almost 30 years ago Drum-heller Mail editor Ossie Sheddy snapped a photo of Al Lemal with his full size front engine dragster. And now nearly three decades later, his children Jessica and Ja-son are continuing the tradition with their own junior dragsters. “It’s fun, and no one else at school has one,” says Jessica, in Grade 8 at Drumheller Valley Secondary School. In July 2008 the family was on a trip to the Barnes farm when Jason, Grade 9, spotted a junior dragster among the weeds. After a year of watching Jason race, Jes-sica decided to pick up the habit too. Th e two regularly attend drag races, most recently racing in the Hanna Drag Races two weeks ago which saw Jason fi nishing fi rst

and Jessica third. “Th e whole racing experience has been awesome,” says their mother Jacquie, who has become Jessica’s crew chief. “Besides teaching them how to drive, they have learned there is a proper place to race, the drag strip, not the street. “From just the racing itself to the people we meet at the track who all share a common interest, it’s been great.” With his experience with his junior drag, Jason will be pursu-ing a career as a mechanic when he’s older. Th e two dragsters, Jason’s newer 2008 M/T Pinnacle Lite and the fi rst dragster Jessica has taken off his hands, run on alco-hol. Jason’s best run to date was 9.27 seconds on the 1/8th mile dragstrip at 70 miles per hour, and Jessica ran 9.83 seconds at 65 miles per hour at the recent Hanna races.

“Jessica has been a real natural right from the start,” says dad Al. “Th e faster the car the faster she goes. Jason is getting much faster as we can buy more parts and make him faster. It’s something we’ll keep going.”

Drumheller Mail editor Ossie Sheddy snapped a photo (below) of Al Lemal and his full sized drag-ster back in 1982, and now the family has come full circle. Jessica and Jason Lemal currently race and have claimed top spots at competitions in their junior dragsters.

In just a few short weeks, the Dino Arts Committee went from outrage in seeing a centrally located tricer-atops vandalized, to a victory as vol-unteers have taken to reviving the statues. A sad picture was posted on the Downtown Drumheller Facebook group page on June 18. Th e small statue on the corner of Centre Street and 3rd Avenue near Five Blue Her-on had been damaged. It had been knocked or pulled off its leg and sat in the street. Th is brought a reaction of anger and shame from residents and business leaders. Some called for cameras to be installed, while others

put up a reward to fi nd the individuals responsible. Flash forward less than a month and great progress has been made. Th e very

next weekend, the committee held a fundraiser, screening the original Jurassic Park movie at the Napier, which raised $710 for the cause. Volunteers from the radio station Q91 set to work refurbishing the sloth situated on the north side of the Gordon Taylor Bridge, and Jen Carlson completed a soft but bold repaint on the triceratops near Fred and Barney's Restaurant. As for the damaged dinosaur at the main intersection in downtown Drumheller, the Town of Drumhell-er helped right it, it was patched up, and Mike Todor made sure it had a fresh coat of primer in time for the Canada Day Parade. "Th ings are starting to come to-

gether,” said John Shoff , head of the Dino Art committee. “It has taken us about two and half months to get organized and the paint delivered.” He adds a student from MAX Campus is planning a re-paint of the dinosaur and mural at the Napier Th eatre. Students from Delia School are looking at repainting the dinosaur in front of the post offi ce. Th e commit-tee asks for an initial sketch of a design from the artist, and the committee supplies the paint. Th ere is a commitment from volunteers to refurbish about half the dinosaurs. In the spring the commit-

tee was formed to take care of the di-nosaurs, iconic symbols of the valley. While the dinosaurs have endured, the resources through the Adopt a Dinosaur program were not suffi -

cient to keep them up, let alone ex-pand the program. “We are trying to raise $30,000 to get some more dinosaurs. Between dinosaur repairs and paint it is cost-ing about $6,000 to $7,000 a year,” said Shoff . Th e Adopt a Dinosaur program raised about $3,000 and then the chamber has just been run-ning at a defi cit for a long time.” Th e new sponsorship program they designed makes it so, rather than a business or an individual sponsoring a single dinosaur, the resources are pooled to take care of them all. Th e committee is not looking at just the dinosaurs; they have a mandate to look after all the art in downtown. Th e core is also home to some intricate murals, and the com-mittee also want to make sure they are maintained and expanded. Th e mural on the corner of 3rd Avenue and Highway 9 has been refurbished. Shoff said artists in the Medium Se-curity Unit of the Drumheller Insti-tution have committed to work on a couple of murals. Inmates at the Minimum Security Unit in the metal fabrication shop are also looking at building a steel framed brushed met-al dinosaur. Th ey said they would do one every winter as an ongoing project for us,” said Shoff . “Th e goal for us to bring all the ones (dinosaurs) we have up to par so they are looking good, and with whatever funds we have left over, get one or two new ones every year so we keep adding to them,” said Shoff .

Blyschuk’s work in progressOnlookers at the Munson Centennial Parade may have spotted Metro Blyschuk’s “work-in-progress” amongst the fl oats. The 1964 GMC Truck has a ‘86 Suburban chassis, and has been a work in prog-ress since he started it last year. “It sure was a crowd pleaser,” Bly-

schuk said, “some kids wanted to jump in the box but I told them they couldn’t, 'cause it’d fall off!” He says new parts are all with him, it’s just a matter of another 200 hours until it becomes whole again.

The Drumheller Valley is a unique, scenic valley, created by millions of years of erosion by wind and water.

About 65 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the hot tropical swamps and forests that covered this area. Today, the fossil-ized remains of the dinosaurs can be seen in museums all over the world, and the lush vegetation exists as coal seams throughout the area.

The Valley was first inhabited by Thomas Greentree, who, in 1902, built his homestead on what is now the Town of Drumheller. The Greentree House became a stop-over place for early pioneers coming into the district.

It was Sam Drumheller who first exploited rich coal reserves

in the area and conceived the idea of a townsite in the Valley. Jesse Gouge opened the first coal mine in 1911. In 1913, the Calgary-Drumheller railway line was opened and the coal industry boomed. More than 40 mines were soon operating in the Valley. Mining towns like Nacmine (short for North American Collieries Mine), Midlandvale, Rosedale, East Coulee, Wayne, and Newcastle developed notorious reputations as highrolling boomtowns with bootlegging and gambling. When gas and oil were discovered in other parts of Alberta, the importance of coal diminished and the economy of the Valley turned to other things.

Today, the Town of Drumheller relies on agriculture, gov-ernment services, oil and gas, and tourism for its economic prosperity.

Th e 2011 Canadian Bad-lands Passion Play is diff er-ent from anything the soci-ety has previously produced. “Th is version of the Fourth Gospel is unique in several ways,” says Barrett Hileman, co-director of the play along with playwright Royal Sproule. “Th e fi rst is story content. Th e Fourth Gospel shares a number of episodes in Jesus' life (e.g. Lazarus, Jesus washing the Disciples’ feet) that do not appear in the synoptic gospels. Th ose audience members who have seen the play in the past fi ve years will enjoy these new additions. “Secondly, this year our narrator (Th e Old Man played by Brian Jensen) serves as a storyteller. Jesus is the primary driving force in the story, and we follow his journey through the play. Th is is in contrast to our last script, which focused on our narrator Matthew’s story, and Jesus’ life and ministry as it impacted Matthew spe-cifi cally. “Finally, the style of the

telling has been more close-ly modelled on the way the Fourth Gospel is written. We are using metaphors and im-agery rather than gritty natu-ralism. Th is serves the large playing space we use to tell our story and refl ects more on the Fourth Gospel’s use of poetry, image, and philoso-phy.” For returning Jesus actor Stephen Waldschmidt, this year is his most challenging role as Jesus. “Unlike previ-ous versions of the Badlands Passion Play, this Jesus is portrayed as a man so to-tally connected with his cre-ator that everything he does and says arises from what he hears and sees his Father say-ing and doing. Acting that kind of life for a few hours on stage is relatively simple. Living that out in real life is a journey that will take me the rest of my life.” “Th is year feels diff erent,” explains Waldschmidt. “Je-sus in the gospel of John is akin to being a ‘divine alien’ invading earth. It feels more epic to me. Jesus is the God-man who has come to re-veal the truth about reality - which includes revealing

how much of a mess was made by the religious es-tablishment which was sup-posed to represent his Fa-ther. “I believe this version of the Badlands Passion Play is one that audiences will love. Th e play delivers a new level of audio sophistication through

our new sound system and magical musical score cre-ated and produced by Luke Ertman. Th e music and sing-ing enhances the acting and brings out the emotion that makes you want to expe-rience the play again and again.” Th e 2011 Canadian Bad-

lands Passion Play will be staged July 15 to 24. Shows starting at 6:00 p.m. include the dates Friday, July 15, Sat-urday, July 16, Th ursday, July 21, and Friday, July 22. Th e 3:00 p.m. matinee shows run Saturday, July 17, Saturday, July 23, and Sunday, July 24.

Weekender Staff The Weekender

Th e Weekender is celebrating 13 years this season as the only comprehensive activity guide for the Drumheller Val-ley. Th e Weekender idea started in 1998, with the goal of off ering visitors a guide that would be in-depth and include a list of up-to-date events that occur within the valley. Th e original plan was to mass print a full tourist guide and then insert a listing of events each week. Th is pro-cess led to more intensive brainstorm-ing, and Th e Weekender was born. Th e Weekender has evolved from a

small booklet to become a full colour tabloid - format paper. Tired of reading about all kinds of events that are happening in the valley, only to fi nd out they have passed, or are happening a month after you leave? While most tourist brochures have the very basic information, Th e Week-ender has a current events listing as well as all the information needed to enter-tain you and your family during your stay in the valley. Th ere are also great contests and informative articles that give insight to Drumheller and area. Th anks for picking up Drumheller’s summer event guide, and we hope you enjoy your stay in the valley.

Thirteen years and still going strong

Robert K. Cooper says, "Every one of us has inherent qualities that an-chor us to the world and enable us to shine. To live that way, we must clar-ify our own values and understand those of others. It's one thing to be alive. It's something else altogether to live - and work - ac-cording to who you are, deep down." Do your business deci-sions refl ect who you are, deep down? Remaining true to our own deep-est values keeps us fi rmly anchored to those things that are

important to us. It's diffi cult to live according to our values if we aren't clear about what they are. We might believe we are liv-ing according to our values, but often we are farther from them than we'd like

to admit. Think of fi ve words or phras-es that best describe who you are and what you stand for. Think of how deep your roots go and how high your as-pirations extend. Think about what you want others to remember about you when you are gone, or what you want them to see when they think of you. Once you have come up with fi ve values, write them down and when-ever you are faced with a decision, ask yourself how those values might impact what you do.

ESKELANDEdward Raymond

January 5, 1939 - July 9, 2011

Edward Raymond Eskeland died suddenly on Saturday, July 9, 2011. He was born in Wayne, Alberta on January 5, 1939 to parents Raymond and Clara (nee Poland) Eskeland. Ed was raised in the Verdant Valley and Churchill communities. He started his career in the oil and gas industry at an early age, drilling some of the fi rst wells in the area, and went on to operate many of these wells for over fi fty years. He shared his wealth of experience with others, giving many young people a start in the oil and gas industry. He married his beloved wife Sharon in April of 1961, and together they settled in the Churchill area and raised their family of four children. Sharon and Ed’s life work included not only a contracting business in the oil and gas industry, but the growth of a successful family farm. At 72 years old, Ed was still actively involved in the daily operation of his two companies, taking only the occasional day off to spend time fi shing. He will be remembered by all who knew him as a hard worker with a strong work ethic. Ed was predeceased by his father, Raymond in 1967, his mother, Clara in 1996, and his wife of 47 years, Sharon, in 2008. He is survived by his children Joanne (Jim) Hodgson, John (Ilona) Eskeland, Jason Eskeland, and Jim (Julie) Eskeland; grandchildren Eric, Coleman, Christina, Benjamin, Jennifer, Owen, and Elena; sister Ella (Art) Hoehne, sister-in-law Maureen (Art) Russell, brother-in-law Jim (Juanita) Davies, numerous nieces, nephews and cousins, and many friends. In lieu of fl owers, donations can be made to the Tom Baker Cancer Clinic. A funeral service will be held Friday, July 15 at 2:00 pm at the Knox United Church in Drumheller, Alberta. Arrangements entrusted to Courtney-Winters Funeral Home.

“May the work I’ve done speak for me.”

Sudoku Solution

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Aries, this week's circumstances test your ability to multitask. If you look at it as a game, it could be easier to make it through the week unscathed. Avoid stress.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, your lighthearted attitude enables you to sail through stressful situations without anxiety. Teach this technique to high-strung relatives who could use the help.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, you exude a casual confi -dence this week, but inside your feel-ings are rumbling beneath the sur-face. That's because you have a lot on your mind.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Expect a complete lack of concentra-tion this week, Cancer. That's because you have a fi nancial situation to deal with, and it's taking up all of your brain activity.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, you are feeling a bit irresponsi-ble, even if you have pressing items to handle. That's because you have been taking on too much and your mind is saying it needs a break.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, you won't make a lot of sense to others this week, but that's OK since you know what you need to get done. Real estate plans are in full force.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, you can't seem to stop talking, and others are starting to grow frus-trated Be more humble and respect others' opinions this week. Otherwise you will be fl ying solo.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, you are feeling somewhat scattered and it's because of the high-energy, high-intensity type of week that is coming up. You may need to fi nd a place to decompress.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21You feel like you want to do something out of the ordinary this week, Sagit-tarius. But it could be better to stick to the status quo. Otherwise you may ruffl e a few feathers.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20You have more options than you fi rst realized. It's time you put your plan into action and get busy. Pisces proves to be a big help on Thursday. You can use the assistance.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, your mind is full of ideas, but you have no plan of attack. You can't just go in without a few ideas on how to proceed. Think it over a little more and have patience.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, now is not the time to take the next step even though you feel confi -dent. You need some more fi nancial backing.

Drumheller received an honourable mention for their Calgary Stampede Parade fl oat entry, as members of the Atlas Coal mine, the town, cham-ber of commerce, Premier Integrated Technolo-gies and a number of volunteers represented the Mining Centennial. Enthusiastic volunteers with the fl oat did some quick problem solving when the pony brought along to pull the coal cars expressed its own opinion. Unimpressed with the city and the

crowds, it decided not to play when the parade be-gan. Undaunted, Warren Nicholls (aka “My Little Pony) stepped into the harness and pulled the coal cars around the 5 km parade route, to the delight of the spectators. Volunteers included Mayor Terry Ye-men, Leanna Mohan, Connie Tremblay, Dan Trem-blay, Bob Moffat, Norma DeBernardo, Jason Aiken, Jay Russell, Peter Digby, and Linda Digby

It isn’t summertime if you haven’t cooked a hot dog over the open fi re yet! Of course cooking it is the best part – getting it “just right” - not all black on the outside and cold on the inside, for example. Perfecting the technique takes practise and patience as we learn with a roasted marshmallow as well!Here is a tasty, but diff erent relish to add to your condiment tray when you serve up your next batch of dogs: Happy Hot Dog Relish1 medium onion, chopped1 Tbsp. olive oil1 c. whole berry cranberry sauce1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard1 tsp. sugar½ tsp. garlic powder¼ tsp. hot pepper sauce½ c. sauerkraut, rinsed and drained Sauté onion in oil until tender. Add everything but the sauerkraut and cook until the cranberry sauce is melted. Add sauerkraut and heat.

What goes better with a hot dog roast than potato salad?I wanted to add interest to my usual potato salad, so I served them as pictured, along with a lentil dish.I baked the potatoes, cut in ½ and scooped out the potato, leaving a thin lining in the shell to keep them intact for serving.I mixed up my favourite recipe and spooned it back into the skins. Half a cherry tomato fi nished off the tops of them.Roasting the potatoes gave an added fl avour to them. This works great for those of us who would rather be doing anything besides peeling potatoes!

“Th ey worked so hard to get to that point, it was so nerve wracking,” says mother Sherry Chris-tensen. “It’s just a great sport that builds sports-manship. As soon as the bikes stop everyone is high fi ving each other. Th e mo-tocross family is very sup-portive.” Th e two boys have been racing for two years now, and qualifi ed for the West-ern Canada Amateur Na-tional Championships by outracing the best bikers in Southern Alberta. On August 20 and 21 they will be competing in the DORVA MX Round One Southern Alberta Fall Series here in Drumheller.
