Today was much like yesterday, with lots and lots of wheat fields and round bales of hay scattered across the landscape. Massive farm machinery and huge fields, along with occasional herds of cattle, populate Saskatchewan. We passed through many small communities, but the only larger city we drove through was Saskatoon, which is the largest city in Saskatchewan. Eastern Saskatchewan seems to have lots of lakes, reminding us of Minnesota. It was all beautiful with sunny blue skies and warm temperatures again, so Ernie again thoroughly enjoyed gazing at all the wheat fields!

We're spending tonight in Yorkton, Saskatchewan, about 50 miles or so from the Manitoba border. Tomorrow we'll be in Manitoba (one more time zone closer to home!) but I'm sure we won't make it as far as Winnipeg--will probably be there Saturday. We pushed it a little too far today, and Ernie is exhausted, so tomorrow will probably be a shorter day.
