Mayor Terry Yemen was quick to respond to a letter to the editor in this week’s Drumheller Mail.
On Monday evening, Margaret English provided The Mail with a letter addressed to Premier Alison Redford on behalf of the Concerned Citizens Delegation of East Coulee. Mayor Yemen has taken issue with many points in her letter.
An afternoon hike through the badlands turned desperate for two young ladies from Drumheller on Wednesday evening.
One of the world’s most famous guitarists turns out to be a palaeo nut. Slash, former lead guitarist of Guns and Roses is on a solo tour and stopped in at the Royal Tyrrell Museum with a couple of his band mates, Myles Kennedy and Brent Fitz, for a peek. They spent about four and a half hours on Wednesday touring the gallery as well as behind the scenes with palaeontologist François Therrien. Leanna Mohan of the museum extended an invitation to Slash via Twitter, and he jumped on the idea. He has already expressed his thanks through the social media site, and with more than 1.7 million followers, his fans are sure to also take notice of the Royal Tyrrell Museum. It appears Slash and Therrien got along well, and (inset) the guitarist checks out some of the impressive fossils.
