The Barrier Wall




Built to keep the wildlife in and as the entrance way to our new gift shop!!!


Ok now it seems like I have a way to edit and add posts from my phone. This will hopefully allow me to keep on top of the blogging a little better

The Wall In Construction

Here is the first bit of construction for our gift shop area which will also give me a private office area as well as some space to hang more pictures

July-September....Summer Labour of Love

Our summer has just flown by us, and oh the activities we've been up to...follow as I take you through our summer of love...

We finally got our signs changed! This picture shows Glenn and Joe Braniff putting up our newly designed signs. Piapot Guesthouse and Saloon...we commissioned an art student from Calgary to design it for us, and we love it! Both sides are up, and have put that wonderful finishing touch to the outside of our building.

We had a huge crowd in for the Piapot Slow-pitch Tournament in July! It was a great turn out, and an unbelievable time! Glenn and I were run off our feet on Friday night, not expecting the masses so soon (only 2 games that night). We hired more staff for the Saturday and kicked butt! It was a real blast, and had a total night club feel to it. We were so busy that we didn't get any pictures of it all. It is by far the best weekend of the year to date! Thanks to all the ball players who made it a weekend to remember!

As some of you know, I have had previous experience living in small town Saskatchewan. Back in 1990-1992 I attended Briercrest College in Caronport, SK. I was friends with a Rosthern, SK girl named Nancy Heppner. We just reconnected because she heard I was moving to Sask. She has become the Minister of the Environment here in Saskatchewan, and is hob-nobbing with all the big wigs in governement. She recently came to visit us here, bringing The Honorable Wayne Eldard our Swift Current MLA. They stopped by for a quick visit after meeting with our Rural Municipality. It was an honor to have them here, and nice to reconnect with Nancy!

Must get back to work, more summer blog catch-up soon.

Cheers, Nicole.
