Day 18, 2016. The final moment before Anthony Drake went on a plane back to England. My emotions were all over the place. I was Excited because I just spent 3 weeks with the Designer of the Saskatchewan Flag. I was Exhausted because I did all the planning, driving and recording of the daily events. I was Elated because Anthony had proper recognition for what he did 47 years earlier. I was Ecstatic because we became good friends, but at this moment in time, I was Heart Broken as I realized that I probably would never see Anthony Drake again... or would I??? .........

Day 18, 2016. Our Final Day of the Saskatchewan Flag Tour. We were lucky enough to meet up with Lionel Bonneville, the 2nd Designer of the Fransaskois Flag, at the Regina Airport. Last minute, but Lionel felt it was important to meet Anthony. Anthony had his picture taken, as our departing guest, at the Hodgeville Skool Inn, where he taught high school students in 1969. Then they took their luggage and walked away to get their flight back to England.

We then went to the Chinese Restaurant and the owners made a beautiful presentation of fruit.

Day 15, 10 years ago. Wanuskewin Park. First Nations Museum and Dig Site. We saw both and then a performance of a Native Dance where Anthony Drake was comfortable enough to join in. We also toured a Dig Site where they actually found an Artifact. The professor and Anthony chatted for quite a while about it. It was a fun afternoon.
