SASKATCHEWAN TRIP - DAY 12


Today is our last day in Saskatoon before heading north so a final trip to the rural area surrounding allowed us to enjoy another sunny day. Farm lands and flatlands that go on forever pretty well sums it up - but it's all glorious. The grain elevator with a waiting train seems to be a classic.
Manitou Beach is one of those places I'd never have heard of if not for Jonny Harris and his Still Standing show. He visits Canadian towns that are dead or dying and if nothing else brings joy to the residents even if it is fleeting. This town may very well be beyond revival but as we walked around it was easy to see what it had been in its heyday.
