  • Ralph Crawford, proprietor of Crawford's Used Books, Perdue, Saskatchewan. The building was originally constructed for the Merchant's Bank, later purchased by Bank of Montreal and, finally, used as a doctor's office before being left vacant for a few years until purchased by Ralph Crawford seven years ago (in 2004). Crawford, who moved from New Brunswick, spent a year preparing the space, opening six years ago (2005).

  • Constructed in 1913 and upgraded in 1957 and 1974, this is an excellent example of a traditional wooden cribbed-construction, gable-roofed elevator with gable-roofed cupola. The "standard plan" elevator, circa 1910 - 1965, typically stood 50 to 60 feet high, with approximately 40,000 bushel capacity. The Saskatchewan Wheat Pool donated the elevator to the Village of Elbow in 2007 to use as a museum.

  • Belle Plaine in concert at Ghostown Blues Bed & Breakfast, Maple Creek, Saskatchewan. Belle Plaine, lead singer; Jeremy Sauer, drummer; Elizabeth Curry, bass player.<br />
<br />
"Up north, I didn't have any vices except music," says Ghostown Blues owner Greg Hisey. "Edmonton and those towns are just ripe with amazing talent. So, CKUA radio out of Alberta was what I listened to 24/7 and they promote Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba artists, up-and-coming brilliant artists, and I started following them and befriending them and, man, I wanted to do that at this place!"<br />
<br />
Greg books acts until October each year. <br />
<br />
"Once people start to understand the caliber of talent -- you just know that if it's here, it's gonna be good."<br />
<br />
"It's a passion of mine. I like the artists. I enjoy the music. That's what sustains me up north in camps."

  • Construction of the historic St. Louis bridge began in 1912 as a railway bridge over the South Sasktchewan River for the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway (later becoming part of Canadian National), completed in April, 1915. In 1929 (according to provincial engineering report; Heritage Saskatchewan engineering report says 1928), a roadway "wing" was attached to each side of the bridge to accommodate automobile traffic travelling along Highway 2. Canadian National abandoned the rail line in 1983 and subsequently removed the track. The Saskatchewan provincial government announced in 2009 that the bridge would be replaced with a modern highway bridge crossing approximately 1.6 km east of the historic bridge, at an estimated cost of $30 million. Construction of the new bridge began in the spring of 2011, with the expectation that the bridge would be open to traffic by late 2012. However, delays in the delivery of steel girders stalled the project's estimated completion to the fall of 2013. The Saskatchewan department of highways states that the former bridge has reached the end of its lifespan as a result of corrosion and wear. Heritage Saskatchewan describes the original bridge as having historical and engineering significance.

However, delays in the delivery of steel girders stalled the project's estimated completion to the fall of 2013. The Saskatchewan department of highways states that the former bridge has reached the end of its lifespan as a result of corrosion and wear. Heritage Saskatchewan describes the original bridge as having historical and engineering significance.

  • Construction of the historic St. Louis bridge began in 1912 as a railway bridge over the South Sasktchewan River for the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway (later becoming part of Canadian National), completed in April, 1915. In 1929 (according to provincial engineering report; Heritage Saskatchewan engineering report says 1928), a roadway "wing" was attached to each side of the bridge to accommodate automobile traffic travelling along Highway 2. Canadian National abandoned the rail line in 1983 and subsequently removed the track. The Saskatchewan provincial government announced in 2009 that the bridge would be replaced with a modern highway bridge crossing approximately 1.6 km east of the historic bridge, at an estimated cost of $30 million. Construction of the new bridge began in the spring of 2011, with the expectation that the bridge would be open to traffic by late 2012. However, delays in the delivery of steel girders stalled the project's estimated completion to the fall of 2013.

  • Haskap (blue honeysuckle) and cherry orchards, with restaurant in background, at Riverlot Orchards cottage winery, St. Louis, Saskatchewan. The silver tinsel glinting off the bushes is intended to frighten birds away from the bushes as the berries ripen. This year, Eric and Irena harvested more than 400 kilograms of haskap berries for wine.
