Harris Saskatchewan ...who knew?

We pulled up in front of Jacks church on Main Street, MAWDS spot for the next 2 nights. It seemed odd but it soon felt like home.

The kids playing in the streets stopped by to meet us. I got lots of pets and Ma answered loads of questions.

Ron the Mayor popped by to say hello and invited us to stop by their home (Peggy & Ron) at the end of the road. Who do you know that lives in an

EATONS CATALOGUE HOUSE

Out back they have a giant lilac bush! Beautiful flowers and a vegee garden just starting.

Peggy told Ma that Jack used flour and made a circle behind their garden so a friend could land his helicopter...only in Harris!!

I loved Peggy & Rons veranda!

Peggy & Ron were leaving to visit their family for the day but made time to chat, show us their home and shared some local stories. They love dogs!

Many of the homes in Harris have plaques out front stating the year the home was built and a few other facts.

As well as this big old poplar

3 churches have been converted into homes/cabin for full or part time living.

Jacks church ... Who is Jack??

He cuts Ma's hair in Whistler and uses this church when he goes hunting

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

A family new to Harris live in a beautifully renovated church down the street

We rode out back of town but the road is pretty sandy and sinky. The Crystal Beach Game Preserve is right up the road.

I was wondering where the water was at this sandy beach??

Some new worms have come to town and making thousands of these holes

Zoe the friendliest cat in town but Ma wouldn't let me meet her

There is so much more to Harris Saskatchewan....Who knew!
