Our fourteenth stop was Chauvin Alberta. This bright red tower could be seen from far far away. It certainly does look like it’s still in use. Pretty sure the train still comes through Chauvin as well. I learned after coming back that I had failed to notice the world’s largest softball. We did look in that direction and noticed the fire hydrants sitting on the bleachers. We’ll look harder next time.
Scenic photos of various historic wooden grain elevators found in Alberta that were a part of daily life in early Western Canada. I had travelled to these locations taking photos and experiencing the small towns that they were a part of. Wooden grain elevators were once common across the prairie provinces, but are now rather scarce as they have largely been replaced by large concrete grain terminals. Grain elevators were the heart of their communities and are slowly disappearing due to age, fire and neglect. Some of the grain elevators shown have already burnt down or were demolished.
