I'm almost in Saskatchewan. My house is in Manitoba, and everything I can see to the west of me is called Saskatchewan. Went to SIAST in Saskatoon, too much fun.

If your house is in Manitoba and you look west you see Alberta don't you? I'm pretty sure you'd have to look down.

Yes. This is possibly a joke about SK being flat. A co-worker once said to me, completely serious: "did you know that you have to drive all the way across Saskatchewan to get to Alberta?" I thought about it and replied "not if you go down thru the States". I think they considered that to possibly be a short-cut! All kidding aside folks, it's good to talk to some other Jeep people on the Prairies.

Yes, drunk or nuts. Whoever named it is long gone and now we have to live with it. I've only Been in Regina once, about ten years ago for a wedding. Very nice place, but the name is kind of different!
