TRIBUNE PHOTOS BY LANA MEIER Stonewall’s Quarry Park provided hours of winter fun for friends and family for the Louis Riel long weekend. Jimm’s Hill had perfect sledding conditions while the pond was as smooth as glass for those learning to skate or wanting to take in a late-night scrimmage. Photos from left: the Lockhart family, including Darian, Dylan and Macy, had lots of spills and thrills on the hill; Four-year-old Siena learned to skate over the weekend; and the Meier family had a fun hockey game Saturday night under the lights.

TRIBUNE PHOTO BY JO-ANNE PROCTER Red squirrels do not hibernate. They grow a thicker coat of fur and construct well-insulated nests in tree cavities (or in homes or buildings). When a squirrel comes out in winter, it’s only to grab a meal from its cache of nuts or seeds, buried close at hand.

By Ty Dilello In the spring of 1946, George Rob- ertson was in Toronto scoring the Me- morial Cup winning goal in thrilling fashion for the Winnipeg Monarchs. Just two years later, he was lining up at the opening faceoff for the Montre- al Canadiens on right-wing alongside the great Maurice “Rocket” Richard and Elmer Lach. For such an inter- esting hockey career, Robertson lives very anonymously today at his house just north of East St. Paul. Turning 92 in a couple of months, Robertson is currently the 11th old- est living former NHL player and the oldest that is still around from our province.
