Ye Olde English Automotive Conveyance.

Here's something you don't see often on the streets of Saskatoon.  I came across this nicely restored Morris Minor this week on Kellins Crescent.

This car made me think of the classic Volkswagen Beetle design, especially since my dad owned a 1969 "Bug" in a similar shade of green when I was small.

Cruising.

During the Spring and Summer months a pair of boats, owned by Shearwater Tours, can be seen plying the South Saskatchewan, offering tours and other services.

Several tours are scheduled each day, and the route includes passage under the Broadway Bridge as seen here.

Automotive Tradition.

Sorry for the absense of posts here of late.  I had two different sets of relatives staying here one after another, which kept me away from the photos for a while.

For the past several years Mini Saskatoon has placed a display car in a large cage in front of the 8th Street location of Starbucks during the Spring and Summer months..  The tradition continues this year.

Oddly the only place the business name is visible is on the front of the cage and the rear of the car itself, which are only readily visible to pedestrians.
