After travelling this past week through Ontario and the states I can find many things to appreciate our province for. There are also other ideas and notions you see in other places that could work well in our province. It was wonderful to see a beautiful part of our own fine nation. Niagara Falls itself is a wonder of the world that has to be seen to be appreciated. I would also recommend Great Wolf Lodge resort for a great family adventure while you are there. We saw an article earlier in May on this resort in the Saskatoon StarPhoenix and impressed with all it had to offer.
Coffee row folks are enjoying all the activity this community has offered so far this year. They are discussing the turning of the crops, the unfortunate weather damage some farmers had to endure and the optimism that always precedes the harvest season. Of course the continual missteps of our Riders are also on the agenda sigh.
You can see we keep busy in Unity with activities and wisdom from our friends on coffee row. Until next week
