    We got scouted today...

    ... for a small budget film/movie. Well, our acreage did. One of the movie guys came out with a fella from our church and shot these drone videos. They're kinda cool, so here's our place. April on the Canadian prairies.

    I was having a nap, so I didn't even get to meet the guy, but Rog says the film is about "John" who has worked in the oil industry for 40 years and has been recently laid off. So maybe classified as a docudrama? They also went over to Rog's family farm to have a look as they need a "shed" for a shot or two and ours wasn't what they were looking for. That's about all I know.

    That first one is the windmill and corrals to the west of our yard. A quarter section of pasture we own. As the drone flies east, it flies over a coulee with water at the bottom and is very steep on both sides. I'm sure some of you will get a kick out of Rog's old auto collection. You never know when you're going to need a part.

    So this one, is our yard.... and it probably won't green up much for about 3-4 weeks yet. 3 weeks is actually being very hopeful.

    There are a few more shots that I can post if you want me to, but I don't want to bore you.

    COOL! Hey, it's NOT boring. Keep'em coming, please! So that long yellow (white?) house is where you live? Can you swim in any of all those small lakes?

    That is quite a layout. All that land looks like sand.

    Do you have a lot of snakes and wild animals out there.

    You have so many junker cars it made me wonder if you sell parts from them.

    Do you go swimming in the ponds?

    What is that big barrel like thing for? Is it a wine barrel?

    Are there any towns close by or are you all alone. You look like you are miles from people. I know some people like that kind of living. I would rather be closer to where other people live.

    Other than that, nice place.

    PS. I would suggest getting some watch dogs to parole the property.
