Business showcase of the week - True Green Solutions

By Kelly Johnson The Observer/Summer Times

Photo by Kelly Johnson

Doug Colpitts of Carlyle operates True Green Solutions, providing and applying a surface treatment to extend the longevity to installed roofing materials.

Each week, up to September long weekend, Summer Times will “randomly” choose a business in the area to showcase. Unfortunately we can’t showcase all businessess in this time period.

True Green Solutions is a home improvement business that is headquartered out of Carlyle and provides a roof preservation application to extend the life of the roof. The company is owned and operated by Doug Colpitts and his son, Tyler.

The 100% plant based oil emulsion can be applied to asphalt or cedar shingles. The solution is absorbed up by the shingles and can extend the life of the roof by up to 10 years.

The company has been in business for two months and can provide coverage to any size roof, commercial or residential.

The process takes two to three hours for an average-sized roof. Preparation consists of cleaning any loose residue with a leaf blower and then the surface is swept. The applicator uses a spray tank apparatus that attaches similar to a backpack and the solution is sprayed onto the existing surface.

It is immediately operational and takes only a few hours to fully dry. It also improves the look of the roof surface cosmetically, giving the property an overall more appealing look.

The company’s motto is “Clean, Protect, Disinfect” and supplies coatings for hard and soft surfaces to reject water, oil and grease, providing a non-stick surface. The disinfectant stays effective up to 10 days once applied.

The roof treatment is a cost effective way for a property owner to increase the longevity of asphalt or cedar shingle roofs.

Nature Conservancy of Canada urging Canadians to be vigilant for ticks

PUZZLE SOLUTIONS

Beware of little freeloaders this summer Saskatchewan – After weeks of being cooped up indoors due to COVID-19, many Canadians are making plans to enjoy the summer outdoors. With tick season running from now until October, the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) is urging people to take precautions on trails and in forests against little freeloaders. Blacklegged ticks (also called deer ticks) can carry various bacterial diseases that are harmful to humans. Lyme disease, for example, is an infectious disease spread by blacklegged tick bites.

Reports of Lyme-carrying ticks are spreading in Canada. While blacklegged ticks are becoming more common in southern BC, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec and the Atlantic provinces, they are not very common in Saskatchewan. However, the American dog tick, which does not transmit lyme disease, is common in the province. They are also known as wood ticks. Red-brown in appearance, dog ticks hide in the shade, in wooded areas and in long grasses, and can be carried from place to place by migratory birds.

A Saskatchewan member of the NCC says people shouldn’t be afraid of going outdoors and that spending time in nature is good for our physical and mental well-being. At the same time, Sarah Ludlow recommends that people who live, work or visit these areas should take steps to minimize the risk of exposure from tick bites.

“Wear bug repellant containing permethrin, long sleeves, light-coloured clothing, tuck everything in (including your pants into your socks), stay in the middle of trails, take a bath or shower after a hike and always check your clothes and body for ticks after a

hike because they can be as small as a poppy seed,” said Ludlow, who is Conservation Coordinator – GIS locally.

NCC has prepared a question and answer sheet to help Canadians in advance of nature trips. Here are some general reminders: • Be aware of areas where ticks live and thrive.

When hiking, try to walk in the centre of the trail. If you need to take a break, sit on a rock instead of on the ground.

• Wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants to keep your skin protected from ticks. Cover your head with a hat, tucking in any long hair, and wear high boots if you have them. Ticks are usually found close to the ground, so tucking your pants into your socks or boots may provide extra protection. You should also make sure there aren’t any gaps in your clothing that ticks could get into. Wearing light-coloured clothing can help you see ticks more easily and give you time to brush them off before they become attached to your skin.

• After spending time outdoors, check your body, gear and pets for ticks before coming indoors.

• Tick bites can easily go undetected. The �irst sign of a black-legged tick bite is you may see is a black lump. A more serious one is a rash near the site that may look like a bull’s-eye target. Infected people may also develop �lu-like symptoms. The disease is treatable with antibiotics, and early treatment almost always results in full recovery.

• To determine which tick you may have come in contact with, people are encouraged to take a photo and upload to eTick. It is an online program which helps monitor ticks and inform about their spread.

Con�irmation will be provided within 24-48 hours of

what kind of tick it is.

Tick removal and preparation: Dos and don’ts • Using tweezers, gently grasp the tick’s head and mouth parts as close to your skin as possible.

• Slowly pull the tick straight out. Do not jerk or twist it.

• Try not to squash it, as this will release bacteria from inside the tick.

• Do not apply matches, cigarettes or petroleum jellies to the tick as these may cause an infected tick to release bacteria into the wound.

Submit your black-legged tick to be tested for Lyme disease The Government of Canada encourages people to submit their ticks to a public health laboratory for testing, if possible. To learn more, visit the Canada Public Health Agency.

To collect a tick for testing: • Save the tick in a clean, empty pill bottle or double zip-lock bag. Do not add any ventilation holes. You can put more than one tick in the container if they are found on the same person or in the same general area in the environment.

• Add a small piece of tissue, lightly moistened with water, to keep the tick(s) alive.

• Call ahead to the health of�ice or veterinarian to submit your tick.

Reminder: Please check your �irst aid kits to ensure they contain the materials listed above for tick removal and storage.

Tourist of the Week

By Kelly Johnson The Observer/Summer Times This week’s “Tourist of the Week” is Marc Drebit from Regina, SK and was camping with his girlfriend, Trish at Fish Creek Campground in Moose Mountain Provincial Park. This was the �irst time Drebit visited the popular tourist area, which he had discovered on a Google search and decided to visit for a weekend camping trip.

Drebit, who is a federal government employee, was very much enjoying the trees and mountainous terrain in contrast to the cityscape where he resides.

While enjoying a nature hike on the weekend he and Trish encountered a �ierce rabbit that was not happy with their presence in his territory. The rabbit actually hissed and stared them down as they crossed through its domain and sending them hurriedly on their way down the trail.

Drebit has enjoyed summer trips while staying in campgrounds in Willows Rock, AB, Red Lodge, AB, Cypress Hills, SK and Waskesiu, SK. Drebit remembers Marble Canyon in B.C. as one of the most desirable places he has camped and suggested it as a spot to everyone that enjoys the outdoors. He made note of its beautiful hiking trails and the uniqueness of the rock formations that have been carved out by the streams in the area. Drebit would someday like to camp in the Grand Canyon when asked for a destination he would like to visit someday.

The couple was camping in a tent for the weekend and had endured the heavy rain and thunderstorms that passed through the area. “Staying dry was no problem, the tent held up very well,” Drebit said.

The couple survived the weekend on hotdogs and hamburgers cooked on the open camp�ire.

The camping trip included activities of playing cards and board games, Frisbee, going to the beach, discovering the ice cream stand and geocaching.

is very impressed by the Kenosee layout.

Diebel has played 35 rounds already this year and he has his sights set to play over 80 by season’s end.

Diebel has been playing golf for seven years and credits his father for introducing him to the game, sticking a righthanded golf club in his hands, even though he plays hockey shooting lefthanded. Diebel improved his game with tips from Dean Brown who is the Pro at the Royal Regina Golf Club. He has golfed several different courses including Avonlea, Deer Valley in Saskatchewan, Gallaghers Canyon in Kelowna and Wildstone in Fernie, B.C. He recommends for a great round, an avid

golfer should play Shadow Mountain in the Kootenays. “If you think White Bear is tight, Shadow Mountain is tighter.”

The one course he would choose to play, given the opportunity, is Augusta in Georgia (if it was open to the public).

The professional golfer he is most impressed by is Brooke Henderson, “She is automatic,” he commented.

Diebel’s clubs of choice are Titleist irons and drivers. The latter with Toronto Maple Leaf head covers and his ball of choice in sticking to the Titleist equipment line, is the ProV1.

Diebel’s best round is a 78 at the Wascana and his favourite hole is the Par 5 number 12 also at the Wascana in Regina.

NIGHT SKIES | JULY AN ASTRONOMY ARTICLE BY JAMES EDGAR

The Moon begins this month four days from full phase. And, that is also a lunar eclipse, since it’s 14 days after the solar eclipse last month. Jupiter and Saturn snuggle up close on the following days, both giant planets within 2 degrees of the Moon on the 5th and 6th, respectively. By the 11th, Mars is also in the picture, also 2 degrees from Luna, and an early morning apparition. Neptune is in the frame, too, a little to the west of Mars. On the 14th, Uranus meets up with the crescent Moon, a little to the west of the Pleiades, while looking straight east. On the 17th, Venus, now the Morning Star, helps locate the very thin crescent Moon, both directly below the Pleiades. This is the time for stargazing, when the evenings are getting dark earlier, the Moon is new and Saturn is at opposition, and with a clear view to the horizon on the 19th, you can see from west to east, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Mars, Uranus, Venus, the Moon, and Mercury.

What a lineup!

The eclipse mentioned above is of the penumbral kind, so not much to see. The Moon just barely skims

into Earth’s shadow, so any change in brightness of the Moon’s northern limb will just barely be noticeable.

Mercury is in front of the Sun until mid-month, reaching greatest elongation west on the 22nd. Watch for the spectacular planetary lineup on the 19th and the Moon joining up with the speedy Mercury in the eastern morning sky.

Venus, the Morning Star, rises over two hours before the Sun in the eastern sky. The bright planet achieves GIE (greatest illuminated extent) on July 10; even though still at crescent phase, the number of square degrees is greatest and thus at GIE. Mars is joined by the Moon on the 11th, as the red planet gets nearer and nearer. It will be slightly less than half the distance from Earth to the Sun, closer than it will be for the next 15 years, when it reaches opposition in October.

Jupiter will be at opposition on the 15th, hugging the horizon along with Saturn. The two planets will be side by side for the rest of the year. Watch for the

Ice cream is an indulgence few people can resist. With a vast array of �lavors to tempt any palate, ice cream is popular year-round, but particularly so when the mercury rises. Few desserts can cap a hot day better than a few scoops of thick and frosty ice cream.

The su permarket freezer case or a local ice cream shop may offer plenty of ice cream options, but ice cream also can be prepared at home with some patience and quality ingredients.

This recipe for “Meyer Lemon-Buttermilk Ice Cream” marries the chill of ice cream with summer citrus. A Meyer lemon is a hybrid of a lemon and a mandarin orange, offering a unique balance of citrus �lavor. Enjoy this recipe, courtesy of “Chocolate Obsession: Confections and Treats to Create and Savor” (Stewart, Tabori & Chang) by Michael Recchiuti & Fran Gage.

Meyer Lemon-Buttermilk Ice Cream Makes 1 quart 3⁄4 cup (6 ounces) heavy

While the cream mixture is heating, combine the egg yolks and the remaining 1⁄3 cup sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer �itted with the whip attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until the mixture is pale and thick and forms a ribbon when the whip is lifted from the bowl, 3 to 5 minutes.

Switch the mixer to low speed. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the bowl and beat just until combined. Do not beat to a froth.

Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the custard coats a spoon and registers 160 F on an instant-read thermometer, about 5 minutes.

Pour through the �ine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the custard overnight.

The next day, add the buttermilk and lemon juice to the custard and stir to mix. Churn the custard in an ice-cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

nearby Moon on the 5th.

Saturn rises slightly after Jupiter around 11 p.m., the two of them cruising across the night sky until dawn. The Moon is 2 degrees south of the Ringed Planet on the 6th.

Uranus is visible in the night sky among the stars of Aries, The Ram. On the 14th, the crescent Moon is 4 degrees south of the gas planet.

Neptune crosses the sky among the stars of Aquarius, just a little west of Mars.

The minor planet Pallas is at opposition on July 12.

The southern Delta Aquariid meteor shower peaks in the early morning of July 27.

James Edgar has had an interest in the night sky all his life. He joined The Royal Astronomical Society of Canada in 2000, was National President for two terms, is now the Editor of the renowned Observer’s Handbook, and Production Manager of the bi-monthly RASC Journal. The IAU named asteroid 1995 XC5 “(22421) Jamesedgar” in his honour.

Cool off with homemade ice cream whipping cream 2⁄3 cup granulated cane sugar, divided into halves 2 Meyer lemons, (1 zested and both juiced to equal 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice) 1⁄2 Tahitian vanilla bean, split horizontally 1⁄3 cup whole milk 6 extra-large egg yolks 11⁄4 cups (10 ounces) buttermilk, chilled Stir the cream and 1⁄3 cup of the sugar together in a small saucepan. Finely grate the zest from the lemon into the pan. (The lemon can then be juiced as part of the 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice.) Scrape the vanilla seeds from the bean into the pan and then add the bean. Bring the cream to a boil over medium heat. Turn off the heat, cover the top of the pan with plastic wrap, and let cool to room temperature.

Transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate overnight.

The next day, strain the cream through a �inemesh sieve and return to the saucepan. Add the milk. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.

If you have a summer-themed photo from the region that you feel might just be good enough to ‘WOW!’ email it to us at observer@sasktel.net with the subject line “Summer Times Photo Contest”. Photos should be transmitted via email in their highest resolution. Photos that do not meet resolution requirements will not be considered in the contest.

One winner will be chosen every week, and that photo will grace the front page of the Summer Times newspaper for that week.

In the final issue of the Summer Times, a winner will be chosen from all the weekly winners, and that lucky person will be given a grand prize!

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact: The Observer at 453-2525.

On July 1 Moose Mountain Provincial Park was the scene of a Canada Day parade with numerous entries including classic cars and trucks and emergency service vehicles, just to name a few. The weather co-operated and made for a fun-filled day of Canada’s birthday celebrations.
