Little Traffic Jam On The Prairie!




Hi!


I'm afraid this is going to be a bit short and sweet............time is not my best friend today.....



For those who have ever wondered what a traffic jam in rural Saskatchewan looks like, these photos depict it, exactly.  Talk about stereotypes coming to life!

The crazy thing is, these things happened on the same day! One, on the way to the shop, the other went right by the shop!


Where I call home, seeing giant pieces of equipment making their way down the highway is just as much a sign of spring as the geese coming back.

Around here you can be pretty much guaranteed that the equipment has one of two purposes.

If you meet something of this magnitude on the road, and it is not a house, it will either be farm or oil related. It's pretty rich soil, and from the soil come the spoils that make our world go 'round ..........literally. Fuel for humans and cars alike.


Granted, running giant equipment isn't the optimal way that a person would like to see these industries thrive, environmentally speaking, but, for now, it's what we have. Technology is making strides every day to find  better, more environmentally efficient ways to do things, but in the meantime, the world's gotta eat. We do what we can with the tools available to us.


Just like with anything else in life. You do the very best you can with what you've got. That's all anyone can ask.



So things are flying right along!


In the past few days......

Celebrated a great Easter with some very special people.........................

Spring has hit the shop in a big way, very busy, we are forever grateful........................

Put the  finishing touches on music for this weekend's wedding...................

Ran what seems like a million errands.....................


As for the upcoming week...................


Take part in a special couple's very special day... it's going to be fantastic! (hence early blog!)

Busy...busy..busy at the shop.............

Run another million errands.....................

Get more baking in the freezer for my daughter's wedding...............

Squeeze a kidlet or two or three.........................

WRITE!


Sorry to write and run, but like I mentioned earlier, time is not my friend today...........



Until next time I'll leave you with this wish................



May you find joy in all things, even if the silver lining seems ripped from your cloud.
May you find joy, and truly feel it, deep and strong and loud.

May you take notice of the smiles which are subtlety sprinkled throughout your  busy day.
May you take notice, you'll find they were likely much more plentiful than assumed along the way.

May you bring a smile to an unfamiliar face each day, for it's reflection will fill your soul.
May you bring a smile, for they may not see many, yours, their shield from life's toll.


Have a great week!
