Hi there it all Carillon readers. I hope everyone had a great long weekend. I know that it rained on Monday but having two sunshiny days out of three is not bad. It gave everyone a chance to get out and become a redneck. Oh, I mean get a red neck or red arms or legs; you get my drift. Dave got most of the garden in on Saturday while I watched from my Cabela's lounger. The rain will have those seeds sprouted in in time.
I noticed that some of the other columnist reported on the arrival of hummingbirds. orioles and goldfinches and I would like to add that they have flown into Rosenfeld too. Dave quickly mad sugary water for the feeder and we were rewarded with a nature show of beautiful colours of arranges and whirring of hummingbird wings. We also had a flurry of goldfinches and chipping sparrows at the bird seed.
We had a phone call from friends Harvey and Barb Wiebe in Tugaske, Sask. and they reported that they received more than three inches on rain on the weekend. Now that we really don't want.
I haven't received any calls from anyone in the community concerning the activities of the parent council. I will try to contact a few more people to get and update before the school summer break.

Last call
This is the last call for marking the calendar fro the Miller Spring Concert which will be held on May 27 at Buhler Hall in Gretna and for the Rosenfeld School spring tea the morning of May 28. Everyone is welcome to enjoy both events.

Progress report
Dave and I travelled to Boundary Trails for my CT scan on my left ankle last Friday. My appointment was scheduled for 10:15 a.m. and we were a bit early. the technician called me into the room immediately and we were on our way out before 10; service was great. Now we wait to see what the surgeon will say on June 3. since this all went so fast we had time to stop the Winkler greenhouse where we picked up two big blooming tomato plants along with a few other items. I would love to get into the dirt but I have already experience the result of try so I'll just leave it to Dave. Between watching Dave, reading. swinging and chatting with the neighbours kids the afternoon passed much too fast.
On Sunday we had the pleasure of Jim and Judith Schellenberg dropping by with a fresh baked batch of cinnamon rolls which they had purchased at the Forks. Life can't get better than that; friends. coffee and food.
