A young friendly farmer with whom I had a long discussion about HelpX and WorkAway and how it might be worthwhile him checking out in order to find some help around his farm.
Ride 021: Ron and Elaine. 392km from Moose Jaw to Medicine Hat
A Christian couple in their mid-50s who after taking me to meet their English friend Barry told me in gritty detail Ron's full life story. This included everything from being in the gutter and attempting to commit suicide right the way through to finding Jesus and becoming a multi-million dollar businessman selling organic grain. They were though a very nice couple, even giving me $20 to head on my way with.

My hosts that evening were very forgettable - so much so that I don't even remember their names. All I can remember and be bothered to make note of was that their home was filthy. Not messy - just filthy. The rest I am happy to forget.
