Pike Lake: Last Paddle of 2022

It happens sooner or later. The seasons march on and when they do, the season of cold eventually comes to freeze our buns off. So, like busy beavers, we empty our flower pots and pack away our patio furniture. In the midst of all this work, I decided to take one last trip before cleaning […]

Signs Of Spring

Spring in Saskatchewan is so ugly. We go from a melty but freezing flood to everything being dead and brown. After several weeks of that, every suddenly goes green. There are very few things that come slowly and overlap to create a beautiful spring, like in other places in the world. Here’s one of the […]

Snow, Snow, And More Snow

Some years, we’ve gotten little snow here in Saskatchewan, like the first year I got my snowshoes. Nothing! But then other years, we end up drowning in that cold white stuff. This has been one of the “too much of a good thing” kind of years. It started off fairly light as it often does […]
