| Old homestead south of Saskatoon |
A 'first summer in Saskatoon' painting that truly shows the fascination with this new home for Fritz and family. The endless horizon, the living sky and the homestead houses brings out the fact that pioneer life in 1969 was not too distant a memory. For Fritz and family, after having 'survived' the first winter here, it also became difficult to imagine breaking the land and raising many children in these small houses on the endless lands. Absolutely unforgiving, whether in the harsh winters or the hot summers.
