Geez, this has been the most enjoyable set of photos I've ever encountered of Alberta and Saskatchewan. I wish I could describe how it has further inspired my long-time interest in a driving trip to that area.

Thanks for comments and glad you approved of the site.

We were rather surprised by how much we liked the Prairies, especially further north away from the mind-numbing expanses of nothingness in the south. There was more relief, woodland and water than we had expected. Having said rude things about the south we were very impressed by some of the hillier areas whch offered a lot of good scenery.

Apologies for delay in responding - we have been on a jolly to Bhutan and India.
