Cwork my canada photo's are from sask ! By you . They have canads on title . From Alberta area
Cool !! I live in the south central part of Saskatchewan.
Great picture Manikin,I didn't know that you were from the country.
Wendling I led the most unique life . I lived for many yrs on West coast but spent time every yr at farm in Wi . I then moved to to farm full time the family farm , I eventually bought my own farm and then became city so I have had both worlds but the farm is my love ! I have a Photo of the farm my husband and myself bought posted I was a RN at VA hospital at time and did the farm too :-) But one could not make it on farm alone income and had to sell and move to town :-( Except for the yrs I lived in the hills of Arkansas those were memorable and a few yrs in TX . Sounds like the Donny and Marie Osmond song I'm a little country and I'm a little city :-) I was on farm from birth till we sold it 15 yrs ago a lot .
Thank you MiKKo and petey for giving some love to this . It is one of my favorites photo's of our farm :-)
