Five boys and I (I borrowed a nephew) went to Sagebrush Studios today. It was about an hour and a half trip to their place - a scenic farmsite in the Saskatchewan River valley. Over the course of a few years, Dean Francis and Fran Hartsook have been collecting churches, renovating them and turning them into studios for Dean's paintings and Fran's ceramics. Dean paints prairie scenery - he grew up in the prairies and loves to highlight them in his works.
The most interesting part of the day for the boys was probably the ferry trip at the Estruary crossing. My nephew was afraid he was going to be seasick, but fortunately the trip is only about 30 seconds long, so he was all right.
It was a good day, notwithstanding the terrific heat, and I would hardly recommend you all take a day trip there.

The heck with Sagebrush Studios how is the Fox Valley grape vineyard coming along? Are they selling grape plants yet?
They've been selling grape plants since spring, but I don't know if they're selling wine yet. You should come check it out!
