day 10 - still in Denare Beach, Amisk Lake, Saskatchewan
june 10th

(photo of me with Sarah Trevor by Andrew Voigt)

a long day exploring the nooks and crannies of downtown Flin Flon
(population 5,594) -
lunch at Mugsy's Restaurant, shopping at the Canadian Tire Store
(which secretly sells EVERYTHING and i didn't see a single tire),
Extra Foods (what is "extra" about food?) and the Orange Toad
(gently used books and speciality coffee and tea drinks).

we visited a first nations craft store in Creighton (population 1,502)
and i bought an exquisite carved soapstone bear fetish which i cannot
put down. Andrew got a dreamcatcher for the truck.

a minor disappointment: the dump was closed today.
by all accounts, the dump is a GREAT place to see bears.
we will go tomorrow for sure.
