Last Trip to Moose Jaw, SK

We have made a few trips to Moose Jaw, Sask lately. We wish for better reasons, but sadly, my hubby's Mom passed away this March. We made what will probably be our last trip there about 3 weeks ago. His sister was able to fly down here and travel with us for the funeral. We had such a nice turnout and it was so nice to hear such nice things about her and all the kind things she had done for others. We will miss her!







We decided to visit a few people, the tourist attractions in Moose Jaw like Al Capones tunnels, and take a few side trips with the family. She was from Avonlea, Sask. so we took a deteor there to see the town. If you look closely, that's Don Cherry-hockey guy-peaking out the window! I did not know he was from Avonlea!!!! Well, maybe he was just visiting.





Then, on a whim, we all decided to travel to Rouleau, Sask where the Canadian show "Corner Gas" was taped. We were following the other car and one small wrong turn meant we were on a road that felt like the middle of a corn field! Pretty Scary, I must say! And, the GPS kept telling us to turn onto the HWY. Well, that was the original idea. A few vehicle problems- like the other car overheating, but we did make it! And, let me tell you, after that trip... we were getting pictures! No matter HOW cold and windy it was!


















I took these from the car..the WARM car.


My hubbys sister, his son, daughter and family were with us. AND our Grandaughter! She is 4 and very tall so she is practicing her "model" stance. Isn't she adorable!





What a cutie! WE LOVE HER!

Not sure if we will ever make it back to Moose Jaw.
Kind of like saying good-bye for my hubby and his sister since they were raised there.
