As we continue down memory lane we hear stories of men walking to work through the bush inhabited by bears. Then there were young girls who walked down the railroad tracks to Lanigan to visit the hairdresser, and young men who followed the railroad tracks to play hockey in Lanigan and then walk home again after the game. The young men would brag that they made it home before those that traveled by other means. In this century people are encouraged to walk for the benefit of their health. What a turn around!!!!

The year is 2007 and we are traveling throughout Lanigan and district. The farms are large with new, modernized homes. The roads are graveled or paved and maintained year round. The Yellowhead Highway is busy with Semi Trucks and cars. The Train, powered by two or three engines, is pulling a Potash Unit train that consists of 124 cars. We enter the Town of Lanigan and notice the recreational vehicles, powerboats, snow sleds and the 4-wheel terrain vehicles. Our children have motorcycles and 18-speed bicycles and the school parking lot is filled with student cars. Saskatoon and Regina are accessible with a two-hour drive. From there we can fly anyplace in the world.
