Nice shot JG! One of my wishes is that the empty lot on the NE corner of 14th and Albert (just beyond 15 Ave. as we see here) gets re- mediated and developed into something mixed use............someday. One can always hope, eh?

Yeah from Roberts Plaza. It has the best view in Regina, at night as well.

A bit dated, but a nice picture of Regina nonetheless.

I took a hot-air balloon ride above Saskatoon in July 2014. Here are some of the highlights. (all pictures by me)

Glad you like them! The company is called Sundance Balloons. They fly from May to the end of September.

http://www.sundanceballoons.com/ball.../saskatoon.cfm

Just a note for anyone considering doing a balloon ride, prepare for the possibility of multiple cancellations/reschedulings. My flight was actually on my 4th attempt. Weather plays a big role in their ability to fly. They can't fly if there is rain, winds are above 10 knots (~18 km/h), visibility less than 4 km, or there are approaching storms.

Excellent, this the direction Manitoba should go. I see on Google maps they are completed.

Thanks for the tip! I've got a wedding coming up in July in Saskatoon and that might make a neat wedding gift.

Not so much a "skyline" shot, but I believe these are Moose Jaw's tallest buildings ...
