Life, love and language. During the week in Saskatoon we decided, in addition to our usual activities, we would visit Lake Waskesiu and take a ride on the Southern Saskatchewen River on the Prairie Lily. In the end the day chosen for the drive to the lake, a trip of about 3 hours, was overcast and threatened rain and only Tracy and I chose to risk it. It was worth the effort. We had lunch at the Elk Ridge Lodge- the photo of which is unfortunately a little dark due to the low light –. September 13, 2014.

Life, love and language. We started just after 2pm and completed the loop by about 4.20pm with a short stop at the bench half way through the hike for water, a snack and to remove our jackets. We chose to do the loop counterclockwise, starting in the valley and climbing steadily through the forest. The path is fairly wide, enabling us to walk in pairs, but was very muddy in places. The trees are mature and for much of the way formed a partial canopy above us through which we could see the very blue sky.

Life, love and language. Picnicking at McLean’s Pond. Last weekend we visited McLean’s Pond for the first time this season. The sun was shining and the weather unseasonably warm so we decided to take Sherry for a run and have a picnic lunch. The pond was still frozen solid and, in fact, there were two groups of ice fisherman in the middle of it. Richard walked out to chat to one of the groups and to see how they were doing. Even Sherry ventured out onto the ice for a short distance,. March 14, 2015.

Life, love and language. Weekend at Pigeon Lake. We went to Pigeon Lake for the weekend. A three hour drive door to door (on the way back – on the way there, due to stops for gas and coffee and missing our turnoff from 13W, it took 4 hours) We didn’t take our boat with us as we only had one full day there and planned to explore a little. Mulhurst Bay is on the north side of the lake. Driving down the south side we came upon the Village at Pigeon Lake which is a quaint little village with a number of ...

Life, love and language. Hiking in West Bragg Creek. Yesterday I joined a group of hikers walking a trail in a section of West Bragg Creek I didn’t know existed. We started in Highland Place and trusted our leader to identify the unmarked pathways which took us along the snowy loop and back to our cars. Some of the trees, birch or aspens – I have difficulty telling the difference – had had pieces of bark stripped from them, presumably by elk, or maybe moose. March 6, 2015. Weekend at Pigeon Lake.

Snowshoe Hare Loop « Wordsworkinc's Weblog
https://wordsworkinc.wordpress.com/2015/03/14/snowshoe-hare-loop
Life, love and language. A couple of short hills kept it interesting and there were a number of places where crampons would really have helped. As it was a few of us detoured under the trees to escape the ice. Although the trail is well marked we managed to get lost briefly. But quickly picked up the path again and found a sunny spot in an open meadow to stop for a snack and a chat. The approximately 5km took us over two hours with the stops. March 14, 2015. 1 Comment ».
