A Change of Tempo

FTLComm - Tisdale - April 10, 2001

Its not one of those subtle changes that sneak up on you, it is instead a clear departure from the waiting-time, of the end of winter as commerce, industry and agriculture turn up the action a notch. Driving around Tisdale looking at the streets filled with business of all kinds suggests a kind of new found urgency. The fruit stand truck seems to come to this corner through out the year but today few have time to stop and check out the apples. while out at the lot beside John Bobs Farm Equipment there is almost quicktime activity as machinery and farm dispersal items of all kinds are set out and arranged for the sale a week from today. The bustle of activity seems to hold from one end of the community to another as the troubled looking sky prevails over gentle warm winds and everyone knows that there are "things to be done."
