Taste of Saskatchewan.....the flat part

This is my beloved Saskatchewan. Where if you dog supposedly ran away you could see him for three days. Why anyone let their dog run away for three days is anyone's guess.

Saskatchewan. Where the roads seem endless and the curves are few. Where the snow is deeper than your shoe. Where the wildlife that you see dead by the road entertains English men who have come so far to see this little portion of Canada (seriously, this boy made bets on what was coming next).

Saskatchewan is flat and ideal for farming. In fact we produce 28% of the worlds grain. In the northern portion of the province is all woodlands. So getting away and going camping is just a few hours away. Steve was very impressed by this. In fact he was complaining a few times that the trees were blocking his view!! I knew he could adapt to prairie lifestyle.

Saskatchewan is tagged "land of living skies". Since most of our population lives in the "flat" part, we also have a benefit of having the most amazing skies to look up at. Thunder storms, sunsets or sunrises, the night sky or just looking out during the day to see how the clouds are rolling by. When the Northern lights come out to play it's a beautiful sight to see........and with nothing hampering your view.

I guess what I'm getting at is that I'm choked how most of Canada and the States (those who have knowledge of Canadian provinces anyway) make these types of comments when they have never been to Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan is not for big city people, it's for nature lovers.
