        We are near Regina. I have to warn you, Regina is in the Palliser's Triangle. This area was designated only fit for Mad Dogs and Englishmen - not fit for Agriculture. Actually not fit for Aquaculture either, LOL. We'll be swathing lentils and combining in August.

            I'm not much fun, so I won't invite you to the Slum of the Ghetto. Enjoy your holiday in Western Canada, there is lots to see and do but those things can be fairly far apart. I hope you have enough time to do all the things you want and go to all the places you want to see.

            Have fun Mallee.....

            p.s., some roads aren't fun to drive on, chose wisely.

                I will be in Australia from November 12 to December 7. How many thousands of kilometers are you from Sydney. Daughter accepted an 8 month term position with her accounting company in Sydney going to visit her and see what we can of the country.

                  Your welcome to stop by at our place if you are in the South West Saskatchewan area. Hopefully we are combining peas and Lentils then.
                  We are 4-5 hours from Calgary depending what route you take.
