Three of a Kind

Hello Everyone!

I won't bore you with what I have been doing the last few months...I would bore myself as it feels like it has been a whole lot of nothing, yet busy at the same time.  I hope everyone is safe and healthy and I hope all my American friends and readers have voted. 

Here are a couple pictures from August 2020.  I don't normally take pictures of granaries but I like the first image as they are old wooden bins and I like the second image for the sky and canola.  Interestingly these bins are close together but one on the east side of the road and the other on the west side. A brief but intense thunderstorm followed not too long after these images were taken.



Thanks for sticking around for my sporadic posts! I will catch up with all your blogs soon.

  2. My father had a great story about ripping down old wooden grain bins after the war. It involved rats and a city slicker on the work crew.

  8. I am sure these structures are a quintessential part of the prairie landscape. One day, before I get too old to even contemplate it, I must drive to the west coast. I have visited Winnipeg twice, made a connecting flight in Saskatoon, visited both Calgary and Edmonton twice, always on business, and that is the extent of my experience of Western Canada east of the Rockies.

    1. Hi David, so many interesting things to see! Calgary is my hometown and I love it there. I am about an 1.5hours north of there now and have explored more of the province in the last few years than ever before. The drive to the coast of BC is beautiful and the drive from here to Winnipeg is also beautiful in a different way. I have not been east on Winnipeg.
