It's been a full year now here in Saskatoon and this is the first time Riley and I have lived near family. When I look at these pictures of groups of soldiers I think about how much they must have bonded like family while overseas. I bet some of them kept in touch for the rest of their lives.

Also, speaking of interesting old photographs, if you live in Saskatoon there is a show at the Mendel Art gallery right now titled, KOSHASHIN: The Hall Collection of 19th Century Photographs of Japan and they are outstanding to look see and read about.
