I had a lovely last Saturday night in Saskatchewan!
Charles, Caroline, and I drove to town for dinner and then attended at the Shurniak Gallery in Assiniboia a concert by our friends Saskia and Darrel, The Great Plains. I saw them in Willow Bunch last year and had seen them at the gallery in 2013 as well.
It was lovely to catch up with them and they put on a great show as always. I was so touched that the first song in their set was dedicated to me, my favourite of theirs, “My Father’s Land.” They also do a hilarious song called “Cabin Fever” during which I always lose it when they get to the bit about the propane freezing.
A major rain storm hit while the show was on and the puddles were deep on the highway on the way home. I was relieved to get in to a dry bed. So it looks like I do have my roof leak tamed and doing some additional tarping will just give me peace of mind. Charles has me scheduled for Tuesday night to make sure the roof is secure and to do a few other chores around the property.
Well, I’d better get to bed since I called off early today and I have eight hours of typing to do tomorrow and… I’m invited to supper at C&C’s! Caroline is going to experiment and needs a lab rat. 😀
Based on your descriptions of Caroline’s cooking on this blog, I’d be happy to volunteer as a lab rat, too.
LOL She’s an excellent cook and, of course, she uses meat Charles hunted and most veggies were grown in their garden. She’s doing a pesto tonight and I’m certain the noodles will be homemade. I’m already drooling. 😀
C&C are good neighbors; going to miss them while you are traveling.
Charles considers himself my adopted dad, if that says anything… I will miss them very much.
