Just looked and 2,000 people have looked at the ad for the Simpson sale, I have gotten about 200 emails so should be very good

what is the best way to get there from saskatoon

I am excited, I am on my way tomorrow, meeting up with people to drop off day olds along the way. Spend the night with the kids in Regina to unwind from this crazy week. Then off to Simpson early to help out in any way possible, then get ready for selling.
Mostly the kid's birds selling this trip, mine are not old enough.

From Saskatoon head out #16 to the Junction of #2 then head to Watrous and were 15 minutes south. You could go to Keneston on #11 then turn on #15 but be forwarned there is broken pavement on 15 between Kenaston and the Junction of #2 and part of it reverts into gravel. So I would go through Watrous if possible. DLC

I'm coming up from Moose Jaw, anyone know if that road is good, or is there detours there??

Highway 16 to the junction of #2 and take the number 2 to Simpson through Watrous

I have to apologize for the confusion on sale day but after trying to get the arena in shape at the last minute moved it into the hall. I think everyone was happy with the sale, it was so busy at 11 am you couldnt move around in there. The people from Simpson were amazed at the response, I think they thought we'll go down and have a burger and look at Murray's chickens. They were a little suprised when they had to park a block away and stand in line for lunch. Thanks to everyone who showed up and helped to make it a success. DLC Murray

Hey no confusion on my end Murray, just got pointed in the right direction and away we went. I hope the hall was not left in too bad of shape to clean up. The rug at the door was the hardest to clean.
I had a great time, and I think it was great. I can only imagine what the town people thought of that sale, for a first sale it was amazing. Thanks for all your hard work and time you put in getting it ready.
