Well, there is some good news and some bad news. Bad news first...

We are stuck in Saskatoon because the van broke down and is being held hostage in Canadian Tire. They want $800 bucks to fix it and they are very non-committal and how soon they can get it done. I hate hate hate Canadian Tire. "With a pure and perfect hatred" as King David would say. So we are scrambling around trying to find an honest mechanic who will charge an honest price. On the other hand, the concerts have been going very well, and we are staying with very generous people who are letting us stay a little longer while things get worked out, but the pressure is building once again. We have to be in Yorkton on Thursday, so this fix job has to get done. Sheesh.
