Day 14 Cut Knife to Saskatoon

"See the field behind the plow turn to straight dark rows" (Stan Rogers)

After a good sleep and a snack in the morning we headed eastward to the Battlefords, which we targeted for breakfast. 

Please pray harder because the wind wasn't at our backs but was in our face most of the day. The first part of the ride was through an area with ponds; we saw lots of Canada and Snow geese on the water and in the air. The farmers were working their fields today with montrous tractors pulling huge tillers and seeders. One tractor had 12 large tires. We crossed one river twice today. What is its name? Reilly or any grandchildren? 

Our initial goal for the day was Langham and that seemed optimistic when we were fighting the wind. Nevertheless we made good progress and changed our destination to Saskatoon at the last minute. We registered at the Comfort Inn about 7:30.  pm. Distance today 183 km.
