Hello All!

I see that i am getting more people reading my blog which is great! I have fixed some of the problems so posts should be updating soon. I have added a suggestions box - so please give some feedback, suggestions, comments.. anything you want! Its easy to use and doesnt require anything.

I am trying to update the trip box to let people know what i am out on a trip. Our group was down to two for a while (because of a breakup) so we did not get out as ften. Things are changing and now on larger trips the three of us join up.

More good news - the snow is finally melting! There is hope! The sooner the snow is gone the more trips i can go on. After switching vehicles every week for months due to repairs i finally have a new old vehicle of my own and am exited to get out.

I will keep updating as much as i can - school has kept me very busy so i do not update as much as i would like. Going on more trips will also help updates.

Thank you all for support,
arilem

On our one day trip we hit a couple ghost towns in which we found a unique old elevator, some churches, old schools and of course houses. Here are just a few photos from that part of our day:

I was told that these are very rare to see in elevators
found in a school - what were they teaching these kids?

signage insanity

No, i am not obsessed with signage. It seems that every abandoned building is covered in signage and most of it does not make sense but if by chance it does its portrayed in an insane way. This province is covered in signage from posters to warnings to road signs we have it all. Here are some crazy ones i found on my latest adventure:

in an elevator
in a church - first part makes sense but "E" - what??
the only book in this church - was at the entrance
what? this is saskatchewan is it not?
industrial building - taken by saskurbex
typical saskatchewan, in 30km there will be another sign
