Just a splash of colour

Wandering around the Gift Shop at the Saskatoon Farm on 25 February 2015, I noticed two of these garden decorations that made me smile. I posted a photo of the other one ages ago. In the morning of that day, six of us were lucky enough to explore a tiny part of the land belonging to Frances and David Dover. For two of us (myself and our leader), this was our second visit - for the rest, it was a first time there. After our visit to the Dover's. I decided that I would drive eastwards along a road that I'd never driven before, until I reached the main road going south. From there, it was a fairly short drive to the Saskatoon Farm. As usual, I wandered round the grounds with my camera and then, when I was ready to leave, I ordered a pizza to take home with me. The inside of the restaurant/gift store building has been changed and one could order home-made pizza. Quite a nice touch, I thought. However, when I visited the Farm recently, I was told that they no longer make pizzas. In a way, I'm not surprised, as the food in the actual restaurant is so good!

All decked out

All three photos posted this morning were taken yesterday, 25 September 2015. This garden ornament was hanging up for sale on a short length of fence at the Saskatoon Farm, SE of Calgary.

The inside of the restaurant/gift store building has been changed and now one can order home-made pizza. Quite a nice touch, I thought.

For a complete change of colour

Photographed at The Saskatoon Farm on 24 May 2014, when my youngest daughter treated me to a great day out, SE of the city. In the morning, we were in the Frank Lake area looking for birds and barns. Afterwards, we went to the Saskatoon Farm for a delicious lunch and to wander the grounds with our cameras. Came across a couple of greenhouses full of colourful flowers, which felt so good after such a long (7 months), brutal winter. This colourful metal flower garden ornament was for sale, to brighten someone's garden.
