Friday’s Fave Five (or Six) – December 22
It’s another blue sky sunny day here in Moose Jaw as we inch closer to Christmas and wind up the last days of 2023. I feel confident (and surprised) to say that we’ll be enjoying a green Christmas this year. I can’t help but wonder what January will bring. We need moisture so part of…
