  1. Not a bad looking building in what appears to be the middle of nowhere.

  2. Not very many windows for a school.

  3. I was poking about on Google Earth, to see if there were any other views of this. I assumed you meant, due east on 585, but I didn't find it (yet).

    But I did find this Easter egg (street view). It doesn't come up when I search the blog, so....

    12 klicks due east of Trochu on 585, north side.

    1. Greenleaf is here: 51.765121, -113.054334

      I have traveled that road you noted and have seen that school sign. I have photos of over two hundred fifty different Alberta school markers. It is an odd little hobby.

    2. I checked out the location. Then I backed out and backed out, my goodness there are a lot of farms up that way! All those different rectangles have to be a different use.
      Neat!

    3. Definitely farming country.

  4. What a great design for a roofline!

  5. Almost looks as though it's playing hide and seek in that last photo.
