By Justin Luschinski Skinners restaurant, located in the heart of Lockport, is gearing up to celebrate 90 years of hotdogs, history and family. The iconic diner by the Red River was established in 1929, at 608 River Road. The diner has existed for 90 years, and generations of Manitobans have stopped in to enjoy their world famous hotdogs. Since opening, they’ve established a drive-thru location on Highway 44, a stall in The Forks, and a mobile kitch- en. Allan and Louise Thompson have owned the franchise for around 40 years. They bought Skinners in 1979 and are now passing the restaurants over to their children. Louise said she’s met a lot of won- derful people over the years. Some of their customers stopped by in their 20s, only to come back with their grandchildren in their 70s. “Skinners is such a iconic part of (Lockport). We’ve had people who came here when they were young … RECORD PHOTO BY JUSTIN LUSCHINSKI bring their grandkids,” Louise said.

Every summer they would ride together on their motorcy- cles, travelling all around Selkirk and area. Wendall would always take the lead with Roger following behind and they met some interesting characters along the way. Wendall said one time, they met Duff McKagan from Guns N’ Roses, while on a trip together. So when Roger passed away from a heart attack suddenly in October, 2018, Wendall decided to get a vanity license plate with his brother’s name on it with hopes of inspiring other men to get checked and not to ignore signs of a heart attack. Wendall says he plans to ride this summer with the new license plate. He’s hoping other men will ask him about it, and he can convince them to get checked if they’re having heart problems. “That’s what I want to do now. When anybody asks me, ‘why do you have ‘Roger’ on your license plate?’ Then I can tell them the story,” Gray said, while sitting inside his St. Clements home. “Hopefully if it’s some old guy RECORD PHOTO BY JUSTIN LUSCHINSKI that’s asking me, I can relate to them, Wendell Gray of St. Clements is pictured with his motorcycle recently.

By Justin Luschinski Now that spring has fi nally sprung, local botanists in Selkirk and area are offering up some planting tips. With temperatures starting to heat up, the spring planting season is fast approaching. Residents are rushing to greenhouses and are starting to till up their gardens, but what should they plant? And what common mistakes can residents avoid? Gary Wilmott, who owns Plants Plus Greenhouse and Nursery in Peters- fi eld, has been helping Manitobans take care of plants for many years. He says the most common mistake gar- deners tend to make is over watering plants. “Usually tomatoes, people tend to water them too much, give them too much TLC,” Wilmott said. “When they get too much water, the stems will turn yellow, that’s a lack of iron caused by over watering it. It’s called clorosis, and it happens when people RECORD PHOTOS BY JUSTIN LUSCHINSKI overlove their plants. You want it to Gary Wilmott, owner of Plants Plus Greenhouse and Nursery in Petersfi eld, holds up some fl owers inside his dry out a bit, and keep the watering greenhouse recently.
