Osgoode meeting tackles River Road Megan DeLaire mdelaire@metroland.com
Residents of Osgoode and surrounding areas can expect traffic calming measures along River Road in the coming months, but their most important asset for making the road safer may be the telephone. That was one of the main messages shared by city staff, community police and community leaders at a town hall meeting held on Sept. 23 to
discuss traffic calming measures planned for the road. The meeting, also attended by Coun. George Darouze and about 25 residents, addressed River Road safety issues raised by Osgoode resident Donna Bekkers-Boyd, who went public in July about speeding, road maintenance and the use of River Road by large commercial vehicles, among other concerns.

Residents urged to report speeding, potholes for faster results Continued from page 1
Phil Landry, manager of the city’s traffic services, confirmed that mobile speed board data for River Road between Osgoode Main Street and Cabin Road – where the speed limit is 80 km/h – showed that 15 per cent of motorists drove at 95 km/h or faster, while the average speed was 86 km/h. “We can see that the majority of the people are going faster than the speed limit,” Landry said at the meeting. “The speeds that we see here are generally what we’re seeing along the areas that don’t have the development that you’re seeing here.” To help address the issue of speeding along that stretch of
road, Landry proposed installing a long-term speed board on River Road just south of Osgoode Main Street. “What we find is that it actually does reduce speeds,” he said of speed boards. “A lot of times people drive on a road and don’t realize how fast they’re driving because they feel comfortable.” He also detailed plans for replacing aging speed chevrons along the road, adding advanced 70 km/h warning signs near sharp curves in the road and adding pedestrian warning signs in both directions. Make the right call
While residents’ fears about speeding on the road were con-
firmed and addressed by city staff, community police officer Const. Stephanie Lemieux explained that police data for the area was largely at odds with those concerns. According to Lemieux, police received only six complaints about speeding in Osgoode in the past year. “For a year, that’s pretty low,” Lemieux said. “It doesn’t show our crime analysts with the Ottawa police that there’s a problem.” Lemieux addressed claims by some residents that the city police service prioritizes urban areas over rural by arguing that the service relies on crime reporting data to assign patrol officers to different parts of the city. If people don’t notify police
about traffic violations, she said, police do not realize there is a problem to address. Lemieux urged residents to be vigilant in contacting the Ottawa police call centre about non-emergency traffic violations. “We really encourage you to make the right call and call us if you have a concern about speeding or erratic drivers,” Lemieux said. “There are so many different ways that you can call and report it. You can call the Ottawa police and speak to someone in our call centre.” It was a refrain that Lemieux Megan DeLaire/Metroland repeated each time the issue of Osgoode resident Donna Bekkers-Boyd addresses a limited police presence in Os- Osgoode area residents and community leaders, city goode was raised. staff, police and Coun.

Offside by a Mile latest offering by Manotick author joe.morin@metroland.com
Being a hockey mom in a hockey family is a career in itself. Thousands of Canadian moms and dads head off each winter weekend to the local hockey rink to watch their children take part in a tradition that seems to be as old as snow. Manotick author Astra Groskaufmanis has captured the hockey culture, fun, fantasy and surprise she discovered that goes along with the title hockey mom. The name of her book; Offside by a Mile: Confessions of a Hockey Mom, tells about her family’s challenging but hilarious 14-year hockey journey. Every parent involved in the minor hockey world will recognize the stories, sacrifices and thrills of their own time spent at the rink. Offside by a Mile resonates with everyone as Manotick’s Groskaufmanis tells her story with grace and more than a bit of humour. Astra and Peter are the

Offside by a Mile: Confessions of a Hockey Mom, tells the story of a family’s adventures as they travel through the often challenging world of minor hockey. parents of three children, two boys and a girl: Connor, Taylor and Emily. All three children are involved in hockey and their decades-long journey from beginners to veteran hockey players puts mom and
dad right in the centre of a hockey adventure. “The book is a scrapbook of things that happen during a hockey season,” said Astra. The book chronicles the frustrations, thrills, and neverending hours spent in cold hockey rinks over a 14-year period. For her children, the experience has been amazing, fulfilling and well worth their efforts, as they made lifelong friendships, and honed their young growing bodies with more than enough exercise. Before Peter and Astra came to Manotick they were avid skiers. With the arrival of their children and living right in the middle of hockey country their perspective changed. “Once one of our two boys got in it there was no turning back,” said Astra. Hockey was not part of the couple’s main list of interests. “We did not come by it honestly,” she said. In her book, Astra talks about the icebreaking parties when hockey parents get to meet each other.
“You get to meet all of the husbands and wives and if you do not get along with people it can be a very long season.” Ironically the Manotick author, who admits to not being an expert on hockey, can rightfully consider herself an expert about being a hockey mom. The important thing to remember, she said is that all parents want to make their children happy and enjoy their children’s satisfaction when they finally reach their goals. The book began as a blog about her hockey experiences. Over time the blog began to expand and the hockey stories took on a life of their own. Out of those stories came the book. “It was six years in the making,” said Astra. “I have no regrets,” she said. “I think most moms would agree.” Astra will hold a book launch on Wednesday, Oct. 7, from 7 to 9 p.m. at The Mill Tavern, 5544 Manotick Main St. There is more information about Offside by a Mile
and Astra at www.astragroskaufmanis.com Astra works as a human resources person in Ottawa. Her stories have appeared in the Ottawa Citizen, the Momoir Project, Minor Hockey News, and the YummyMummyClub. She is a weekly contributor to HockeyNow’s online magazine. Her short story, The Angels of Hockey, was published in Chicken Soup for the Soul – O Canada: The Wonders of Winter (November 2013). You can find her poking fun at herself,
motherhood, and minor hockey on her blog, The Dustbunny Chronicles at www.thedustbunnychronicles.com/, on Twitter at @mydustbunnies, and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/TheDustbunnyChronicles. Astra lives with her husband, and their three children, in Manotick. Offside by a Mile: Confessions of a Hockey Mom is published and sells for $4.99 for the eBook version, hardcover for $24.99 and $14.99 for the paperback.

The Project
The City of O awa is developing a plan to extend and expand the City’s exis ng diesel-powered O-Train Trillium Line service from Greenboro Sta on to Riverside South (Bowesville Road) and to the O awa Macdonald-Car er Interna onal Airport. The plan will include op ons to service the growing communi es of Riverside South and Leitrim, the Airport and adjacent lands, new sta ons at Gladstone Avenue and Walkley Road and a relocated sta on at Confedera on Heights on the exis ng Trillium Line. The plan also allows for future conversion to electric light rail transit (LRT) technology. The Process The planning efforts have been completed and the City is now formalizing the environmental assessment component in accordance with the Transit Project Assessment Process (TPAP) as prescribed in Ontario Regula on 231/08. As part of the TPAP, an Environmental Project Report (EPR) will be prepared to document the en re study process, a descrip on of the planned project, its an cipated environmental impacts, as well as the project’s consulta on program. Consulta on Members of the public are invited to review the work completed to-date, including previous consulta on efforts and reports presented to City Council on this project during the planning phase. Informa on is available on the City’s website at o awa.ca/trilliumline. Comments can be forwarded to the City between September 24, 2015 (date of first TPAP no ce) and October 31, 2015. In early 2016, the dra EPR will be made available for public review and no fica on will be issued.

A document to protect wildlife during construction has been approved by the city’s planning committee, despite concerns that the new protocol won’t be enforceable. Donna DuBreuil, director of the Ottawa-Carleton Wildlife Centre, spoke to the committee on Sept. 22 to decry what she called a “watering down” of the protocol since it was originally released last winter. That draft received kudos from the animal welfare community, who felt it actually had enough teeth to truly make a difference in wildlife protection through requirements for wildlife mitigation plans, pre-stressing efforts such as making noise before clearing land, and better timing of clearing as part of the site plan approval process. But the home building industry felt it had not been properly consulted, and by the time the document was updated to
reflect developers’ concerns this summer it was reduced to nothing but a set of best practices, according to DuBreuil. “There hasn’t been any muscle put back into the document,” she said in an email. “The city of Ottawa isn’t any further ahead in spite of the wildlife strategy’s commitment to wildlife-sensitive planning.” But planning policy development manager John Smit told the committee the protocol was always meant to be a guideline. Any indication in the early draft that it would be a new regulation or bylaw was accidental. “We don’t have the legislative authority to introduce those types of regulations,” Smit said. Instead, the document should be used as a “frame of reference” to inform the developer’s environmental impact statements and tree conservation reports during the application process. “We then have the ability, through site plans and through subdivisions to take those recommen-
dations, the ones we think are important, and actually turn those into conditions of approval,” Smit said. “Those conditions are legal documents and, depending on how those conditions are structured, they are enforceable.” The struggle, of course, is collecting enough evidence that conditions are being ignored in order to intervene. “You really need to make sure there is ongoing presence where

There was some chatter around the committee table about hiring a wildlife mitigation expert to help guide developers through their site clearing and building process with the least impact possible. That was axed from a wildlife strategy approved by council in

WEEK IN REVIEW Saturday, September 26 to Friday, October 2 Congratulations to the organizers of the 1st Terry Fox Run in Greely. The turnout was much higher than expected and everyone was treated to a beautiful September Day. It was great to see so many participants and supporters at this inaugural event. I would like to thank the Osgoode Village Community Association for inviting me to participate in their Town Hall meeting on Wednesday evening. It was an opportunity to discuss issues and concerns within and around the Village of Osgoode. I would also like to thank City Staff from the Traffic and Roads Department, our Community Police officers Cst. Lemieux and Sgt. McNeil, as well as Rob from Safer Roads Ottawa for their attendance at the meeting. It was very important to have all these knowledgeable individuals from their respective divisions as they were able to offer clarity on issues and answer questions from those in attendance. It was an informative and productive meeting and I thank residents for participating in the discussions and listening to the various presentations. I hope some residents had the opportunity to visit the International Plowing Match as it runs from September 22 to 26. I will be working the South Nation Conservation booth at the IPM on Friday afternoon and am looking forward to meeting people from different parts of the world. I hope this nice Fall weather continues as next up is the Metcalfe Fair. Hope to see you there !

Taxi drivers deserve to work
T
he city’s taxi drivers find themselves in a tough spot. Uber has created a price challenge for current licensed taxi drivers. Uber operators have no taxi licence, iffy insurance rules and choose to do part-time, sporadic work aimed at peak periods of demand. The licensed drivers who used to serve the airport – and are now locked out – face added fees that the airport authority has washed their hands of and which airport fleet drivers must pay. The fees arrive without the ability to pass on some of their extra costs to customers. Driving a licensed cab is a full-time job, one that often supports a family. In some cases the long hours help to pay off the debt incurred by buying a taxi licence plate – plates that Uber drivers do not have to have. No taxi passenger should begrudge that part of a taxi fare that goes to a taxpaying, hard-working driver. We can take exception with high rates, but that’s the system put in place by dispatch companies in concert with our elected councillors at city hall. They set the rates – not the drivers.
The drivers who are locked out are not rich. There are no millionaires among them. They work long hours with no guarantee of good money, all while risking physical harm: both from the dangers of driving in city traffic every day and from unknown passengers. Your mom told you not to pick up strangers. Taxi drivers pick up strangers in dark places every day. The people who choose to drive for Uber are working part-time for less pay, slowly nibbling away at full-time jobs. It’s the Wal-Mart-ization of an entire livelihood as employees get forced to work for less money because customers want to pay the lowest possible price. Unless of course the job can be outsourced to a developing country – and then they don’t work at all. This is a real-world case of “pay me now or pay me later� if we turn full-time workers into the unemployed and spread their incomes across a parttime landscape of our own making. Maybe there even more desperate people out there willing to give paying customers piggyback rides around town. Those in need of transportation in the real world should support the taxi drivers now on strike.
Filling the music gap
W
hen Ken Rockburn’s book, We Are As the Times Are, was launched at Irene’s a couple of weeks ago, the tables were full of old-timers, some of them the very performers who had filled Le Hibou, the legendary coffeehouse that is the subject of the book. (The title is from a song by William Hawkins, one of those performers, and he was there.) The book is fascinating even for someone like me who arrived in the city after the Le Hibou’s day had passed. In its various locations, from Rideau Street to Bank Street to Sussex Drive, the club was host to some of the most celebrated and influential artists of the day – from Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, to Gordon Lightfoot, to Joni Mitch-

of anecdotes and good gossip, you get a clear sense of a scene that was distinctly Ottawa. And it makes me wonder if there is such a scene now. Both Rockburn and I are probably far too old to know. But I asked him anyway. He was quick to point out the differences between now and Le Hibou’s era, 1960-1975. “Back then your options were severely limited,� he said. “A few dark corners on radio, one or two record counters downtown, and, around the start of the Sixties, virtually no music venues that were there for kids in high school or university. So a place like Le Hibou, latching onto the burgeoning folk music scene, very easily became the focal point, making it appear as if it was distinctive.� That’s true. Lovers of music that was not in the mainstream, not Top 40 radio, were starved for their sounds. Today, they can find them on YouTube. They can join Face-
book groups devoted to their music. They can find Internet radio stations that play nothing but. But is it possible that this abundance of riches, rather than cutting into the appetite for live music, has stimulated it? Says Rockburn: “I don’t pretend to be a part of it any longer but, from a distance, it sure seems to me that Ottawa has a vibrant and thriving pop culture scene. You only have to look at the music clubs, the smaller art galleries, and events like Nuit Blanche to see that.� Those are encouraging words for those who think we shouldn’t be getting all our culture from looking at screens. There have been some discouraging events on the local folk and jazz scenes in recent years, even though festivals more or less devoted to them have got bigger and bigger. Rasputin’s is gone. Irene’s survives. Could Le Hibou, or something like it, succeed today?

Probably not as a coffee house. It would have to have a liquor licence. And it probably wouldn’t be able to afford to showcase international artists. Still, it would be nice. Despite the abundance of clubs, it feels like there’s a gap.

Take Para Transpo forums to the people Wilkinson Emma Jackson
emma.jackson@metroland.com
Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson is hoping Para Transpo staff will take its consultations to the people, instead of making the people come to them. City officials are in the middle of hosting 16 small sessions to discuss who is eligible to use Para Transpo, and what can be done to make the booking model more efficient. Beginning Sept. 17, OC Transpo staff have been welcoming 20 people at a time to city hall to discuss the barriers and challenges that exist for operators and users of the city’s alternative transit system. But residents in Kanata are baffled that the consultations would all take place downtown, when the very customers staff are trying to reach are by nature not particularly mobile. “The mayor emphasised how big Ottawa was and how much of it was rural ... yet all
the meetings are being held down town,” said Sarah Trant, president of the Kanata Seniors Council. “I think in order to get a more accurate picture of the needs and challenges faced by the Ottawa community, meetings should have been organized to allow Ottawa’s rural residents to have their say.” Wilkinson is hoping to make that happen. She said she’s working with staff to see if a west-end consultation can be arranged at the Kanata Seniors Centre, to help those who don’t feel like they can make it all the way downtown. “It does take quite a long time and sometimes on the bus it can be tiring for them,” Wilkinson said. Troy Charter, assistant manager of transit operations for OC Transpo, said his team considered taking the consultations on the road, but city hall was chosen because of its central location. He said the Laurier Avenue building is completely accessible, has a cafeteria and bus service on site and is a central location for all Para Transpo
ers – they’ve already received more than 300 responses that way, Charter said. “And we’re willing to make calls to people individually,” he added. “There’s multiple ways you can participate, it doesn’t have to be through these sessions. Let us know and we’ll find a way we can get them involved.” Registration is now open for the eight remaining consultation sessions. Half will deal with eligibility issues and the other four will consider booking issues.
customers coming from every corner of the vast municipality. And it’s worked for Para Transpo users before. “We’ve had previous consultations with Para Transpo before all at city hall … part of it was we’ve gotten positive feedback, so let’s not change what’s working,” Charter said. Besides, the consultations are accessible in other ways, he said. The same questions presented at the in-person sessions can be completed online and in hard copy and sent back to organiz-

Memories just to warm them. Because once breakfast was over, the fry pan washed and put away, the irons would be moved to the front of the Findlay Oval to get burning hot and ready for the ironing. Winter or summer, come Tuesday, the old kitchen stove had to be raging hot, or the irons would never be ready for the work ahead. The ironing board was nothing more than a plank wrapped with a few layers of well-worn flannelette sheets, and then
placed between the backs of two kitchen chairs. Once everything was in place, Mother took a used vinegar bottle and filled it with water and tucked in a stopper with holes in it. Everything that had been starched, and the flour bag tea towels, and pillow slips, Father’s Sunday shirt were well sprinkled with the vinegar bottle water and then rolled into tight sausages and stacked at one end of the kitchen table, close to the ironing board.

ironing. Monday night, after the clothes hung on the line all day, they were brought into the kitchen stiff as boards. Wrinkles were smoothed out of Father’s overalls and the boys pants, socks matched and rolled into balls, and hand towels folded just right. Some of the laundry, like my sister Audrey’s and my blouses had a bath in a basin of water and starch before being hung on the line on Monday, and they too could stand up alone when dried out. Before we went to bed on Monday night, Mother would put the flat irons on the reservoir at the back of the stove,

Buying a hearing aid? Here’s what you need to know
By Rex Banks, M.A.CCC-A, Reg. CASLPO Chief audiologist, Canadian Hearing Society
Buying a hearing aid can be stressful. Between sorting through the many advertisements and coming to terms with the cost of hearing aids, the entire process can be confusing and overwhelming. But fear not: in this article, we will provide some helpful tips to make you feel better prepared.
Hearing aid evaluation During your hearing aid evaluation, don’t be afraid to ask your CHS audiologist questions – this is an important time to learn about your hearing test and overall communication ability.

Community support for Terry Fox On Sept. 20 the first Terry Fox run took place in Greely at the Greely Community Centre. For the previous 10 years it was held in Manotick. Organizers hoped for 50 to 100 participants but ended up with more than 200. This included three local hockey teams who took part. Coun. George Darouze supported and attended the event, along with the local Greely volunteer fire fighters. Looking after the lemonade stand were Trinity Caldwell and Payton Desrosier

SENS EXTRA Canadian Tire Centre reveals new seating, food options brier.dodge@metroland.com
The Canadian Tire Centre will have about 500 fewer seats this Ottawa Senators hockey season, as the new Club Bell seats are now in place. The luxury section – with tickets that include valet parking, food and drink – start at $10,000 a seat for the whole season. Single game tickets aren’t available in the special section, which seats 472. The renovation changes the total capacity down to 18, 684 from 19,153. “We think this is going to be the best location to watch a game in the entire league,” said Ottawa Senators president Cyril Leeder. “It’s quite a significant change.” There are a few seating options, with larger, premium seats, and blocks called “loges”, which give customers a bar-style counter to keep food and drink on. Leeder said the ticket sales for the Club Bell section will be gearing “pretty well all to businesses and high net-worth individuals.” FOOD OPTIONS For fans who won’t be sitting in the new premium seeing, there are still upgrades to look forward to this season at the Canadian Tire Centre. For those who have dietary requirements or just enjoy eating healthy, Farm Boy will open the
Farm Boy Fresh zone. Options will include wraps, salads, soups and sushi in a menu created by Jamie Urie. The Fresh Zone will feature similar food to the pre-made food in the grocery store chain, including options for gluten-free and vegetarian diets. “That’s part of our mandate. Number one is being able to offer something for everybody,” Urie said. “We’ll have vegan soups, vegetarian chilli – and of course, options for the meat lover.” Favourite Smokes Poutinerie, which has been a popular stop during games, will also expand its presence to include a new Smoke’s Burritorie. It will have a few unique burritos on the menu to add another food option for Sens fans. There will also be more than quadruple the number of Tim Hortons coffee stands through the arena, as the chain has increased its presence at the facilty. “Tim Hortons has really made a big investment and we’ve been able to expand the distribution of coffee to 14 locations, up from three last year,” said Geoff Publow, the team’s vice-president of strategic development. “The lines have become a bit legendary.” There is also improved accessibility access with a counter that is more accommodating to fans who are in wheelchairs.

Right, Farm Boy is one of the new food additions for the Canadian Tire Centre in 2015. The takeout restaurant, located on the concourse accessible from the 200 and 300 level seats, will have vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free food options.

River Road conversation not over Continued from page 2
Bob Campbell, of the city’s road and sidewalk maintenance service, echoed Lemieux’s sentiments saying that areas of the city where residents actively call to report potholes see them repaired more quickly than places where people are silent on the issue. Future of River Road
Although pleas by police and city staff to phone in reports of speeding and potholes came with the promise of results, residents were left wondering when some of River Road’s more long-term issues will be addressed. “We must not let urban planners continue to plan without documentation of rural concerns,” Bekkers-Boyd said. “We don’t have light rail and we just need to get to the city on roads that won’t destroy our vehicles, nor on roads that see the heavy truck volume that River Road does.” Bekkers-Boyd said at the meeting that the road – which locals describe as littered with
potholes and crumbling at the edges – has never been resurfaced during her 25 years living in the area. The road is currently scheduled to be resurfaced in 2019, though Coun. Darouze announced at the meeting that he is working to expedite that timeline. “I am also speaking to you at this meeting so that this section of River Road be maintained at a higher standard of care and safety if indeed it is to be considered safe for both trucks and other vehicles,” Bekkers-Boyd said, addressing the longstanding issue in Osgoode of heavy vehicles travelling down the main arterial road. Unease about the presence of large vehicles on the road intensified in 2014 when cyclist Laurie Strano, 40, was killed in a collision with a garbage truck on River Road during that year’s Ride the Rideau Event. Landry confirmed that in a 15 hour traffic study on Sept. 9 of the intersection of River Road and Dalmeny Road, 89 heavy vehicles travelled southbound on River Road and 96 travelled northbound.

He did not offer a solution for rerouting heavy vehicles to another road, but pledged to keep working with locals to improve Osgoode’s road surface issues, explaining that 9th Line, Blais Road, Dalmeny Road, Earl Armstrong Road, Stagecoach Road, Old Stagecoach Road and Snake Island Road are all scheduled to be resurfaced by 2019. Not satisfied with the solutions offered by city staff at the Sept. 23 meeting, Bekkers-Boyd also pledged to keep fighting for improvements to Osgoode’s road safety and infrastructure. “Our local voice is the action that started tonight,” she said addressing the Osgoode area residents in the room. “And I hope to ask many more questions about road safety in your areas as well.”

A case of the fall friskies hits the farm
T
here are several simple things I wish I could do better. I wish I could drive a stick shift. I’m very proud of all my three daughters for learning how to do this. Maybe some day they will teach me. I wish I could wash floors and windows without leaving streaks. My husband is a master at the former, my mother the latter. I wish I could maintain attention span long enough to cook a meal without burning or over-boiling something. I get bored by cooking, and I lose confidence because it never turns out tasting the way I planned. There are some things I have recently come to realize I am good at, however. After eight years on the farm I am getting really good at thinking like the animals. In the late summer, the apples on the trees just outside the barnyard are over-ripe. They
DIANA FISHER The Accidental Farmwife get soft and heavy and fall from the trees, smashing into the ground and releasing a perfume that floats over the fence to reach the cows. This is why I was not at all surprised to hear a cow during the middle of our movie the other night. “What was that,” I shushed the Farmer. He seemed annoyed that I had stopped the movie we were watching, mid-scene. “I swear I heard a cow.” “Don’t be silly. It’s a science fiction movie. There are no cows on this planet.” A few minutes later, another distinct “moo”. It
seemed to be coming from directly outside the window I was sitting beside, as if a cow was on the front lawn, and had just recognized me through the glass. I got up and stepped out onto the back porch, just in time to see Big Betty skipping through the open gate onto the lawn. Running back through the house to pause the movie yet again, I prodded the Farmer off the couch. “Cows on front lawn!” He grumbled something about forgetting to shut the gate and said he would take the ATV down the lane to get them off the road.
PET OF THE WEEK
I ran out the front door into the pitch black, just as the Farmer took off down the lane. A black mass burst out of the wildflower hedge, heading straight toward me. “Watch out for the bull!” the Farmer called. I hopped back up the steps into the house for a flashlight. When I got back outside, the Farmer on his ATV was herding a steady stream of protesting cows off the road and up the driveway toward me. He hollered into the darkness, “turn your flashlight off and get outta the way!” I switched off my light and hid in the trees beside the lane. A wave of cattle stampeded by, just a few feet from my hiding place. The last one, a straggler, spotted me standing there. I guess cows can see in the dark. She padded over and sniffed at my leg. Then she jumped, startled,
and took off after the others. The beasts didn’t mess around the yard or trample my vegetable garden. I guess they knew the gig was up. Back in the barnyard, gate firmly locked behind them, the cows protested loudly. Mocha stood in front, the spokes-animal. “I know it was you, Mocha,” I scolded. She never could resist the smell of ripe apples. Thank goodness we don’t live closer to a busy road. The sheepdog is barking a lot more at night, so there must be a lot of activity in the dark. I think she is worried about the turkeys in the stable, who are big enough to defend themselves now but starting to think about escape. We can hear their musical gobble-talk from the house. I think they are attracting wild turkeys with their song. The Farmer thinks I’m nuts
but how else do you explain the return of the wild turkeys to the Fisher farm? The first year when we had a corn crib next door I counted forty wild turkeys strutting along the stone fence for breakfast each morning. When the corn crib came down their numbers dwindled and finally they disappeared from the property. Now, suddenly, they are back. I watch from the kitchen window as the males fan their tails and strut around the females in their seasonal dance. The babies sit and watch the display, amused. The cooler temperatures are giving the animals new energy to get into mischief. If there is such a thing as spring fever, we must be heading into the fall friskies. theaccidentalfarmwife. blogspot.com dianafisher1@gmail.com

Mary Cook Continued from page 13
another iron on the stove and tested it the same way. She did it so quickly, she never burned her finger, which I learned one day could happen if you didn’t pay attention. That day I was allowed to iron the tea towels. They, of course, were rolled up in tight little sausage shapes, and I laid one out flat on the ironing board, clamped the holder over an iron on the stove, spit on the end of my finger, and connected with the iron.
Of course, I wasn’t quick enough, and I was sure I had fried the end of my finger! I soon learned to barely touch the iron and to make sure there was plenty of spit before contact. Ironing was a serious business back then. It took Mother the better part of Tuesday to complete the job. On a summer’s day, the heat in the kitchen was fierce, just to keep the irons hot on the Findlay Oval, and Mother’s face poured sweat. When it
got too hot to bear, she would put the iron back on the stove, and go out to the grape arbour with a glass of water and sit for a spell...just long enough to cool down and rest her tired back. And then it was back to the job that consumed every Tuesday. When the last of the ironing was done, clean, starched blouses hung on wire hangers all around the kitchen. Father’s Sunday shirt would be on the back of a chair. The tea
R0013450030_1001
All the time the flat irons on the stove would be getting hot, absorbing the heat from the raging fire inside. When I wasn’t away to the Northcote school, I loved to sit at one end of the table and watch Mother iron. There was a clamp affair with a smooth
wood handle that fitted over the flat irons, and using a thumb press, Mother could change the irons when they cooled down and would no longer do the job. I thought that was very clever indeed. But the cleverest trick of all, I thought, was when Mother tested the iron to see if it was hot enough.She spit on the end of a finger and quickly tapped the bottom of the iron...if it sizzled, it was ready to use. If it didn’t, she moved over to
towels would be spread out to make sure they were perfectly dry before being put neatly in the drawer on the back-to-thewall cupboard. Everything had to be tidied up before supper. The ironing board tucked behind the door in the summer kitchen, and the flat irons allowed to cool down on the reservoir before being put on top of the warming closet on top of the stove waiting for the next Tuesday’s day of ironing. Mother read in the Renfrew Mercury about a new type of iron that used gas to heat it. But she was having none of that. It was enough that she worried constantly about us either freezing to death in our beds on a cold winter’s night, or meeting our Maker from a fire in the winter when the Findlay Oval was plugged to the gunnies with blocks of wood to help keep us warm. She didn’t need a gas iron that could explode and blow us all to pieces, all in the name of moving up to a modern convenience. No siree, the old flat irons would do just fine!

This week’s puzzle answers in next week’s issue
Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 You are extra motivated to explore new opportunities this week, Aries. Bring along a trusted advisor who can steer you in the right direction if you have questions. TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 It is very important to find balance, Taurus. Many activities are coming up, and you have to figure out a way to juggle them all. This will take some creativity. GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, avoid overindulging this week. Even though it may seem like you can never get enough, over time something special may lose its spark. Practice moderation, instead. CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, everything will work out the way it should if you keep a smile on your face this week and continue with the status quo. Soon you can shake things up. LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, you may be compelled to get more involved in your community or a volunteer project this week. A desire to give something back propels your actions. VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 You have a soft spot for underdogs this week, Virgo. Anyone who seems to be struggling will have your attention, and you will offer to lend a hand.
LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, this week presents opportunities to help people or even animals in need. If ever there was a time to take up a cause, now is it. You have plenty of extra time to lend a hand. SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, you may find yourself waking up extra early just to accomplish everything you need to get done. Try not to burn the candle at both ends for too long. SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, you will enjoy downtime much more after you complete an important task and feel a sense of accomplishment. Rest may still be a few days away, so be patient. CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, things may be a little confusing of late, but you will find a clear path to get things done. Ask a friend or colleague to lend a helping hand if things get too hectic. AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Relationships are very important this week, Aquarius. Nurture both the personal and professional relationships that you want to grow, and you will be happy you did. PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, the earlier half of the week may be hectic, but things will return to an even keel as the days press on. 1001
