May Long and a Two-Four….

Awww, the beginning of summer, may long weekend.  I don’t know what you call it in your parts but when I grew up we called this beloved weekend “May-long”  apparently saying the “weekend” was too much work.  We would go camping and drink and stay in tents and drink and play slow pitch and drink and cook on open flames and drink.  I’m sure this is a tradition the world over but in Saskatchewan (and Alberta) with our limited summer this was a huge event.  This called for a “two-four” of beer….We would go out in our “Bunnyhugs” making sure we had plenty of clean ‘ginch’ or the more proper “gaunch”.  Then we’d all play Kaiser until the sun came up…..

I don’t know why people from Saskatchewan are always made fun of…..
