Exciting Times
I'm going on a side trip with a half-day hold, so I look up where I'm going ...
The town has a population of 156. Not a typo: one hundred fifty-six. Its points of interest, listed on the town website, include:
- airport
- church
- groceteria / gas station
- rec hall that has both a kitchen and a dance floor
- a covered half-size ice rink
- 3 baseball diamonds
- a soccer pitch

Did you see the picture of the webmaster's yard (with doghouse)?

One of the other above stalkers got it, but I prefer to imagine beautiful suburban Weed CA, Carrick CA pop 156 in the shadow of Mt. Shasta

I'm from a town of 90, which per capita didn't have as many or as much points of interest.
Not that I noticed much, for we lived 70 miles out of town anyway.

Isn't the winner (me!) going to be acknowledged?

Silly me, thinking my readers would need a couple of days to speculate. Post on the trip coming up in a couple of days. If I have time I'll augment it with a formal acknowledgment. Finding the webmaster's doghouse was a coup.

At 10 miles from Edmonton one really has to wonder if it still has an identity.
Love the church & aerial photos. Looks like a generic Alberta-French farming town. *sigh*.
What a shame it is so close (10 miles) from damnation!
