Dear Editor,
My high opinion of Steveston has climbed even higher. Recently, on two occasions, I went to the Prickly Pear asking for a favour. It required a few minutes of their time, but they granted my request with a smile. The other day, I drove to the Red Colt Equestrian Farm, asking for another favour. Again, I was promptly helped out. I’ve concluded that there has to be something about the place that sweetens the nature of the people. Perhaps, it’s the fact that Steveston retains a bit of the charm of a small town, with vestiges of an almost rural aspect along its eastern edge. Whatever the answer, the experiences warmed my heart.
