For the community Rempel Bros. Concrete Ltd. and Tumbler Ridge Sand and Gravel, Service and support Remple Bros. Concrete Ltd. moved into Tumbler Ridge in September of 1982 and located at that time in the temporary Industrial Park. Working with six ready-mix trucks and one pump truck, they employed nine people supplying all the residential concrete in TR. Remple closed in November for the winter months, re-opening again in March of 1983 at the same location but ex- panding their operation to eight ready-mix trucks and employing 10 people. In September, Remple Bros. Concrete Ltd., negotiated to buy the ready-mix operation of Goodbrand Construction. The sale was completed in September and the firm moved to their new site at the old Yellowhead Pit, off Mackensie Way. As well as serving the District of Tumbler Ridge, the firm took over the existing contract between the District and Good- brand, to supply ready-mix concrete to the residents of the community. In 1983 the company supplied ap- proximately 20,000 cubic meters of concrete. Remple Bros. Concrete Ltd. purchase all of their aggregate from Tumbler Ridge Sand and Gravel, a company which is locally owned and operated by George Visnoki. Visnoki had taken over the operation from Yellowhead Excavation, August 22nd, 1983, and supplies the district residents with sand and gravel for all their needs.

I’ve always hated these people who smugly say on the 3rd of November, ‘I’m all finished my shopping and everything’s wrapped, even. my Christmas cards are done.”’ Even worse are the people who buy gift cards and wrapping supplies in the January sales. If I did that, I’d never find the stuff by the next Christams. Asa matter of fact, I’ve had things disappear within 24 hours of purchase.

I love goose and I havn’t had it since I was a teenager. A turkey will still have to be cooked at some point as our family are all in- veterate turkey lovers, but T'll do that a few days in advance, most likely the night they get in on the bus. After three days of bus stop sandwiches they’ll be ready for a good meal. I’m really looking for- ward to having the kids here, we have not seen our youngest daughter and her husband since a few weeks after their wedding in August 1982. I will be real busy through the holidays, but we will still have plenty of time to visit and catch up on all the news and hap- penings of the past year and a half. This year we'll be especially fortunate as we will have three of our four children with us as well as two sons-in-law. In this day and age of scattered families, that is a real accomplishment.

Bjarne, will introduce Norwegian Rosemaling is an old Nordic art form tracing its origin as early as the Viking period, 900 A.D. - 1100 A.D. and was developed in the valleys and fjords of old Norway as a peasant art, and much the same as the Scottish tartans, there are numerous designs depicting clan and locality which are still in practice today. Bjarne was taught the art by an old master in the province of Telemark, (also the place where skiis were invented) and in Hallingdal. Dalarna in Sweden also has its form of Rosemaling strongly resembling that of Norway, since that province borders Norway. Rosemaling is an art form used in decorating furniture, handicrafts, house interiors and a whole lot of other interesting things. A course will be offered in January by Northern Lights College in Chetwynd, Hudson Hope and Tumbler Ridge. COME YE! COME YE! ONE AND ALL!
