The Binscarth area notes a busy travel and family gathering season with the Lamoureux and Graham families visiting kin across western Canada from Edmonton to Saskatoon. Weddings, birthdays, and genealogical chatter fill community notices as relatives from Brandon Ottawa and beyond converge for celebrations and time with grandparents and friends.
A first person reminiscence recounts a 1930s Binscarth community. It recalls neighbors Jack Hamilton and the Skeogh family, Metis workers, a town celebration, and a devastating hail storm that ruined crops. The narrator endures the Wall Street crash, loses his job, and survives in Winnipeg by doing odd jobs while seeking work.
