Saskatchewan-Harvests and Old Ghosts

Just back from almost a week in Saskatchewan.I said I wanted to find old abandoned farmhouses.With the urbanization of Saskatchewan finding these are not a problem.Even found abandoned towns....kinda sad.Saskatchewan has found new riches in oil and gas,so this sudden wealth will hopefully bring back some of the people who abandoned it in years gone by.I'm not sure about saving these dying little towns however.That may be impossible to stop.
