Saskatoon and Area Photos
 
A thread for non-construction photos shot in and around Saskatoon. Buildings, parks, roads, people, wildlife, events, festivals it all goes here!

EDIT: This thread is for anyone and everyone to post their photos. Cell phone photos are fine too!

First one looks like Witch Hut in Winnipeg. Second the Vehicle is Brutal! lol All in all nice set of pictures. :tup:

Ruckus Apr 9, 2010 12:05 AM

Witch Hut eh...(searches)...it certainly does. The Witch Hut is cooler though. It's a hut in the forest (probably fun at night).

_______________

Is a Saskatoon photo thread a good idea? I'm going to add a poll for people to vote for, against...or indifferent.

1ajs Apr 9, 2010 7:51 AM

no not even close to the witches hut

Église du Précieux-Sang. It's French Roman Catholic.

Looks like Ruckus was out at Pike Lake.

I think the Saskatoon photo thread is a great idea. Looking forward to seeing more Saskatoon Killer Gophers in this thread.

Jerry Apr 24, 2010 12:49 AM

We have it all in Saskatoon, even stand-up paddle boarding. :)

Ruckus Apr 24, 2010 2:57 AM

WTF? That can't be much fun. I'm guessing they're just trying it out/practicing for when they decide to go coastal.

Indeed I was. It's not open yet unfortunately, well, overflow is.

The greening process is fully underway...:)

The other half of the sky was a light shade of blue, almost white. A heavy downpour followed (light hail) and now it's pleasant again :rainbow:

^ Those last couple are some skyline shots you don't see everyday!

circle33 Jun 2, 2010 5:13 PM

If I'm not mistaken #16 is the boathouse of none other than Mr. Ken Achs.

Nicer than my house.

Ruckus Jun 3, 2010 1:04 AM

Different skyline shot for sure. That iron bacteria is kind of nasty (especially when it's not hard-packed).

Living in that boathouse would be like an episode of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air — a little more white though.

Haha the 2 men in front of you at the Roots show who were about to "pass the popcorn" are my good friends.

Ruckus Jul 17, 2010 9:43 PM

You should have been in there with them! Funkalicious fun :pepper:

kgc087 Jul 20, 2010 3:33 PM

The green Saskatoon picture is AMAZING! It's exactly what everyone wants the city to be. Dense but not over bearing. Visual green power production presence. High use of green public transit. Visually pleasing architecture everywhere AND lots of trees!
