Here are your kicks and kisses for the week of June 23!
- Kisses and Kudos to Allan Harding, Gus Giannakos, Julian Burtnick and Chuck Bertrand for doing a real “bang up” job.
- Kicks to the powers that be for forcing us into a $70,000 riparian study to grow 4,000 lbs of potatoes. We hope they will donate 4,000 lbs of potatoes to food banks to compensate for this travesty.
- Huge kisses to whoever planted all the wild flowers on Payne Rd! It is STUNNING!
- Kisses to the guy in the Mercedes that followed me off the 101 to tell me my brake light was stuck on my motorcycle; and to Will at Penco Motorsports for doing the quick adjustment that fixed it for free! Much appreciated.
- Kisses to the person who picked up my sweater and placed it on a branch so I would find it on the Lost & Found trail. Thank you!
- Grateful kisses to Marilyn and all the dedicated volunteers for making the annual Pender Harbour Blues Fest an event to enjoy and remember. It wouldn’t happen without you, and we wouldn’t miss it for anything.
- Huge kisses to Scott of All Coast Towing who came to my home on a Saturday and through his great knowledge of auto mechanics, was able to get my car started so that it wasn’t necessary for a tow to an auto repair shop. Thank you so much, Scott. You’re my hero!
- Kisses to Michael Davison for telling the truth about the Meadow Creek ghetto on Garden Bay Road. Well done..and, for Brian Lee for publishing the truth in the Harbour Spiel this month.
- Kicks to the man that thought it was appropriate to park in front of my house and urinate in front of my property and then argue with me that the road was public property and that this behaviour was acceptable.
- Kisses to the District of Sechelt Parks staff for doing such a great job at all our parks and for all the lovely garden beds and flower displays around town. The new Wharf Avenue sidewalks, trees and gardens are greatly appreciated too!!!
- Kisses to the owners of SuperValu in Gibsons. They have created a Community Grant Project and surprised all 15 applicants by giving us all a $500 grant. Very generous.
