Three quarters of an hour drive from Eastend is the hamlet of Admiral, population 30.  There are three churches all within a stone's throw of each other.  There is a credit union and a post office as well as a massive red grain elevator off in the near distant valley.
I've been told there are three artists living here, each in their own homes.  One is a photographer and is it any wonder?  The winter light in Saskatchewan is magical.  Nearly everything is pastel and when you do spot something darker, it emphatically punctuates the landscape.  Such a silent place except for the wind when it sculpts amazing drifts and whistles over the rolling hills and through the century-old windbreaks.
