Readlyn S.D. No. 3293


A very handsome old school in Readlyn, Saskatchewan.

Max and Wendy

Meet Max and Wendy.




This is Max...




...and this is Wendy.  I think they were both happy to get a visit from a passerby...I know they brightened up my day.

Looks like they have a pretty good life out on their farm near Macoun, Saskatchewan.

Ray Opera House


In the early 1900's the main floor operated as a grocery store and the upper level was the opera house.  

Imagine going to the opera on a Saturday night in 1908...in northwestern North Dakota. 


The Ray Opera House is now a museum.
