Visiting Corner Gas!!


I've finally (after lots of fiddling) figured out my new digital camera (ta-dah!!) enough to post some pics here on the blog.

We (the family) just got back from our cross-Canada driving vacation and one of the highlights was that both Ruth and I got to visit the set of one of our favourite TV shows, Corner Gas! We got to visit the town that all the outdoor shots are filmed in; Roleau, SK (which doubles as Dog River) The town has a total population of about 450 or so people. Most of the indoor sets are filmed in sound studios in Regina, SK.


Our tour guide was the guy (can I remember his name? Sorry, guy...) who is Brent Butt's stand-in. Do you notice the resemblance? He really looks like a twin from the back.
It was so much fun! I'll publish more pictures of our trip later!!
