Day three of the trip!

At the Goveners House we met Barry
A security guard who was merry!
He took pictures with us
And made not a fuss
Then at the "Ledge" we were fairies!



On a very hot day in the car
All our brains were turning to tar
Our poems were all lame
They won't bring us fame
On that very hot day in the car





At Big Muddy where cowboys did roam
We all felt so small and alone
'til along came a crowd
Who was very loud
At Big Muddy where the sun always shone






So we followed these "J Dubs" around
Though we knew not where they were bound
We say USA
And where outlaws did play
But at our tracts they surely did frown (oh well!)




Limerick is a small town in Sask
Where? You may jolly well ask
It's just past the Giant
I keep telling my client
To take pictures is a very big task

Pick of the Week

It's good. Check it out!

Day 2 of the trip

Onto the next day of our Wonders of Saskatchewan trip...





From there we went on to MJ
And things there were going ok
We saw a moose that was big
And owls that "dig"
On Donya's 23rd birthday

And underground we did go
To see the Al Capone show
And Gus made us laugh
As did all of the staff
I do think everyone should go!





In Regina we ate lots of food
It put us in a very good mood
In the front we're all smushed
And then Donya blushed
Then we spent that night in the hood.

time travelling by facebook

A year ago today I set my facebook status as follows...

"Can't see the light yet in this ever darkening valley she's walking through but ...knows it's there, and that He'll get me there. onward and upward!"

I remember so clearly how lost I was this time last year. God is so good! He's done some amazing things in the year since then. It was cool to be reminded.

The Wonders of Saskatchewan, Day one!

Ok so a "few days" turned into a bit longer, my apologies. However, here we are now! This was the first day of our trip...


We started off in Debbie's parent's kitchen with a map and a penny. We thought maybe we would drop a penny on the map and make that our destination. Not so much. After a bit of discussion we sort of figured out where we wanted to and what we wanted to see. So off to the Dairy Bar we went for slush and ice cream
and then we headed to North Battleford. We didn't leave until almost 7ish so we planned to spend the night at Debbie's brother's place and then really started our trip the next day.

In the morning we really started out trip...

*I was reading from "The Book of Nonsense" inspiring us to write limericks about our trip, enjoy*

There was a lady of Loon Lake

Who was one day chasing a snake

She wanted to ring the bell

And she did it quite well

til the Krydorians chased her away

So we went next to Ft. Carlton

But there was no way for us to get in

So we were sad

And some were mad

And said, "I'm never going to Saskatchewan again!"

We crossed the St. Louie river

At first it did make us quiver

Once we were aboard

We opened the door

and waited impatiently for dinner.

At Batoche we had our own tour guide

and went on a golf cart ride!

There was a guy there

Who gave us a scare

Cuz he came out of everywhere!

And what's more, we all had some fun

As we saw where Riel shot a gun

We saw houses and wells

And rang old door bells

and of weird art we sure saw a tonne.

At Watrous we drove down main street

a church cleaning lady there we did meet

She led us inside

Where we did abide

and saw stained glass that was really neat...(and old!)

So we went down to Manitou Park

So we could go swim in the dark

In salt waters we float

Though we're not in a boat

In that beautiful Manitou Park

We spelt in a tent not for three

And we all slept very cozy

We lay side by side

It was stuffy inside

So in the car slept Joni-Lee!
