Patience in the heat

Summer heat seems to make us a little surly at times, but we’re better off keeping our cool.

Like when you come across road maintenance work. In the heat. When you’re in a hurry.

Time for a deep breath, often needed when traveling out of town, but this summer, locals may be in for patience-testing even close to home.

You know about that if you live in east Coulee Dam, where crews are building improved sidewalks and curbs in spots lined out in a Transportation Improvement Board-funded project in much of the area around the school buildings. Patience, says Mayor Larry Price; it should be completed by the middle of next month.

Or, if you’ve needed to head over to Keller, or just get home up Peter Dan Road, which is being repaired due to a landslide, you may have had choice words regarding the detour route.

Next time you’re ready to utter those words, just be thankful you’re not working on that road in that heat. That might help you cool off.
