Saskatchewan..

   Recently my Dad was put back in contact with an old scrapbook of photographs that his Mother had made of their homestead in North Battleford, Saskatchewan. I'm not exactly sure who the people are in these photos but the contraption you see in the background is called a "dray". It was basically the original mini-van. Horses were attached (?) to the front and the family would ride in style to visit neighbours, get firewood, go to town, etc. and wheels were attached once the snow was gone. Doubtful they had any cup-holders and imagine the cold...



      I got a kick out of this photo as well. Dad said people used to put their babies out the back door to "get some sun." Hilarious- and the baby seems to be lovin' it...
