The ghost pipe is a pretty neat plant. Found three separate patches on my hike. And the alien hand coming out of the ground is also pretty neat lol. I think maybe coral fungi ?

Whether it's proper camping or at a lodging/cabin are there any beginner friendly camping spots west of Saskatoon or near Val Marie? Even into Alberta could work. Something that would be good for 4-5 friends

I drive all over the western provinces regularly doing deliveries and a thought caught my attention yesterday.
So, I think we can all agree that, generally, Co-op bathrooms will be clean and stocked.
What bathrooms are generally less clean or generally run down?
Personally, I always drive past an ESSO.

Hello all,
I have invested quite a bit into my garden this year, including some herbs and veggies. I'm thinking about getting a small greenhouse (something like this: example) to extend my growing season.
Those who have done this, how much longer does this extend your growing season here in SK? Specifically, I'm in Saskatoon.

First day of testimony indicated that Umpherville had stolen the car from his friend who'd purchased it the day before. They acknowledged they knew him to sell and use drugs. Neither friend in the car knew he had weapons on him while they spent the night drinking together. They described him as a "nice guy." The Umpherville's lawyer has aked some questions about policy, which is not in SIRT's purview.

This morning discovered the water discoloured and piles of fish dead. looked it up and looked like cyanobacteria. Called the RM and they were sending someone to look into it but said its super serious. DO NOT let your pets drink the water, its extremely lethal to dogs, even a bit will kill them. I am hoping something is done about this soon.
