SASKATCHEWAN BEAUTY

 
 Hello from Yorkton. Today got off to a lazy start with me sleeping in until almost 9:30. When I got moving a quickly discovered that it was a work day here in the Nelson household. The kiddies had been sent upstairs to get into work clothes and it was out to the backyard for most of us. Jeff and Bill had already brought down the last tree and I worked with the kiddies to remove old fence posts....a great lesson for them on levers. We all worked on a variety of things to get the yard a little closer to getting the new fence built. Kathy came out and started work in the garden picking her magic beans...and I ended up joining her on the weeding work party of two. I held in until 12:30...and then the heat of the day and the work did me in.
 
After a nice shower, Bill and I headed to the highway for a drive. We ended up all the way in Regina, and did some needed Costco shopping. We then had dinner at Five Guys before heading home.
 
Now I have to say here that Saskatchewan is a beautiful province.....so much countryside spreading so far into the horizon. The most majestic things are the canola fields. The wheat has not really got too high yet...but the canola is magnificent!!
 
Lastly, Happy Birthday to my sister in law...Lynn
 
loves her playtime
