Day 29: Viceroy to Pangman ( pride of the praries)

P- P is for pizza, delicious home made pizza made by Eileen's good friend and neighbor, upon our arrival in Pangman late in the afternoon.



A- A is for apple juice, along with the grape drink, cream soda, water, and cookies Eileen also brought, and the coffee, tea, and muffins which Eileen and Debra served to us at the community centre the next morning as part of the community cafe. It all was yummy and so thoughtful.

N - N is for the Night sky, the beautiful starkly, wide, open night sky at the lovely, quiet campsite Elaine suggested next to the school.

G -G Is for the Green Grass, the gorgeous green rolling hills and wide open Prairie space in the countryside around Pangman, and for the lush green street scapes in Pangman neighborhoods.

M- M is for the Memories , the wonderful memories of Pangman and all of Saskatchewan thanks to the generosity of Eileen and Debra and the rest of the Pangman community.

A - A is for Attitude, the wonderful positive, community spirit in Pangman, where strangers are welcomed and community residents take care of. each-other with heart.

N- N is for Next Time, hopefully there will be a next time here. Until then, we hope to have visitors from Pangman visit us in
Nova Scotia!

Thank you Pangman!



Loon-like calls at dusk,
Wetland symphony,
Strange sounds for prairies.

  1. Sounds wonderful just wondering if Shane has arrived. A beautiful day for the farmers gathering. I have been chopping vegetables all day. Safe travels!

  2. Sounds like a lovely end to a tough day. Boat languishing - back at it tomorrow. Looking forward to hearing something about the older participants drafting the young'uns. Headwinds out of the east demand drastic measures.
