Brent Butt doesn't do bodywork

The last "exciting" stop on our drive home was the set of Corner Gas. About 30 minutes outside of Regina, Rouleau houses the gas station, Ruby's Cafe, and the police station.

However a deer decided that it could compete with a speeding car and ran into our left headlight. Needless to say the deer was dead. My parents when talking with the RCMP believed that maybe it was still alive. Trust me; it wasn't. So here's the damage. It's hard to judge by this photo but the driver's door made an awful creak when it was opened.

The deer lost a bit of hair.

We bravely carried on to the set. I'm not a watcher of the show but here are some photos that I hope capture the essence of the show. My sister told me that people often routinely stop to get gas because it looks like a gas station. Indeed many of the props like the gas pumps were from a Husky.

I don't think the grain elevator was stolen but most likely repurposed.

Oooh, inside. We could look behind the counter and there were some very odd comics.
