Decided the line wasn’t worth it and stopped by the farmers market on the way home instead.

Coyotes in the city?

I live on South Hill by red deer hospital, as I was standing outside enjoying the Aurora, I heard what I think is a pack of coyotes. Have spent lots of time in rural areas and know the sound of them. My partner however doesn’t think it’s possible because we live so centrally.

Can anyone confirm or deny the presence of coyotes in that area? I have a dog and want to keep her as safe as possible.

How is the river looking so far after all the precipitation earlier this week?

Curious to know if it’s floatable below the dam this weekend / what condition it’s in if anyone has been over there recently.

How high / dirty is it? Thanks

Looking for Friends

Hi, I moved to Red deer around 10 days before, I am coming from MONTREAL and back home is India. I came here because the opportunity I got is way better than before (career wise)

But I kinda feeling now that I made a mistake as it’s a small town, no place to go, not too many people, everything is just new to me.

Bout me: I am 26(m) I do work in health care IT, some time I go to gym also, I never drink, smoke or anything like that.

Please dm me if someone want to be friend…… Thanks

Low flying airplane for the last couple weeks?

Anyone know anything about this airplane that’s been flying abnormally low around red deer/ red deer county for the last couple weeks. It’s flying way lower than most of the other small aircraft around the area and it’s always the same plane.

Small white and yellow propeller plane with round things on the bottom of its wing tips?

My controversial senses are tingling..

Brunch

Favourite brunch spot in RD?

I’ve been to Hash and love it, and The Granary, which was a disappointment. Just curious which place is your favourite :)

Wing spot

Red deer really needs a good wing spot. I am not talking about a restaurant that happens to also serve wings, I am talking a place whose main thing is wings. Like wingstop or Buffalo wild wings. I would go all the time.

Winter Tires

I want to get my winter tires out, last time I went to Canadian tire to get them in and it cost about a hundred and something for the alignment. Is there a place I could get it cheaper or should I just stick with Canadian tire.

Canyon Pointe Apartments

The groundskeeper loves to operate his gas powered Pack blower everyday early in the morning, and I’m noticing that he just blows everything onto the road without cleaning it up.

So by afternoon when the wind picks up a bit, all the debris gets blown back onto the lawn. So the guy repeats the same thing everyday. And what doesn’t end up on the lawn stays in the street.

What is the oldest bar left in Red Deer?

Having a conversation with a friend. I know Cheers in Fairview has been Cheers for as long as I can remember. I gotta think whatever was in the Black Knight and Capri would have been older, but they're torn down/changed now.

New ownership aside, what the longest standing bar in Red Deer still under the original name? I can't think of anything older than Cheers. I guess the Vat is maybe up there now, but I think Cheers has been Cheers longer. The old Backstreet is Leah's now, I don't consider that the same thing. We're landing on Cheers. Help me out folks.
