Just down the road from Gouda, Saskatchewan

As far as I know there is no Gouda, Saskatchewan. I think there should be.

Right by the elevator is the old train station. I felt like including it in this post.

Ghost town Saskatchewan

The ghost town of Robinhood, Saskatchewan. The Lutheran church is right in the town however you might miss it since it is so overgrown. I took photos from the road since there are "No Trespassing" signs posted. The inside is likely unsafe. There are a few residents in the town and I looked to see if any one was available to get permission to get a closer look. No such luck. There used to be about sixty residents and three grain elevators here and a rail line went through here. The rail line is gone. Not much remains except a couple of houses, a small building, a community hall, and this church.

Hard to get a good photo of this church.

My psychic prediction

I predict there will be beer in my future. The future being this evening.

I like beer. This is a great time to be a fan of beer. The great thing in this day and age is there are a lot of microbreweries and brewpubs all over the place. The not so great thing in this day and age is there are a lot of microbreweries and brewpubs all over the place. Some of the stuff is really good and some of it is downright vile. It seems like every small town has someone brewing beer and trying to get a foothold in the market. I am all for free enterprise and I would love to see people who start a business become a raging success. The reality is that there are a few that I wonder how long it will be before they fold due to a crappy product.

As stated, I like beer. I even like a lot of the varieties. One brewery finishes some of their beer in casks that were used to age Scotch. Great stuff. I even like the orange or grapefruit beers. I even ran a cross of couple of honey beers that I liked and a huckleberry one that was kind of tasty. I think there is a little too much tweaking of beer that is going on. I draw the line at chocolate or coffee infused beer. All that being said, I would rather have too much choice than the not so distant past when there was hardly any choice.
