We spent the day traveling across the Canadian prairie. I grew up in this area, so it was nice to see it again from the train. This picture is fairly typical of what I remember from my childhood.
The small pond you see in this next picture isn’t called a pond on the prairies. It is called a slough – pronounced “sloo”.
There were a number of farms with collections of old abandoned farm machinery. This one is a threshing machine, from the days when horse drawn wagons were used to bring the cut grain to the thresher. Long before my time…
Finally, the snow geese were migrating to their nesting grounds in the high arctic. The white dots in this picture are geese – thousands of them.
Day three is taking us through north Ontario – lots of trees, rocks, and lakes.
If It Was Today... 
If I see another f@#$&& tree …. You can guess who this is!
if I see another f@#$& tree …. Who said this!?
Hmmmm … indeed I can guess. Maybe you shouldn’t take the Canadian after all…
I can guess. I was going to suggest you should take the Canadian, but maybe that isn’t such a good idea after all.
Well, I’ve learned to appreciate trees!
