The first thing a person notices when they arrive in Churchill is, they are taller than the trees.

That wheat sculpture is really neat. Would love to see 30 or so of them dot a public place in Regina or Winnipeg.

The owl sculpture is nice too.

Thanks for sharing.

I know I'm biased but boy are the prairies beautiful. I don't know how anyone could be against living here because it's "too flat". I will accept "too cold" however (this year doesn't count).

We need more hills

Nope. That is what every other place on the planet is for. I agree with djforsberg. Our landscape is beautiful just the way it is. If there is one thing I would change it is an exchange of farmland for natural prairies, that would be gorgeous.

J-MAN · #19 Posted: **Feb 4, 2012, 11:02 PM**

The hills that we do have are pretty gorgeous though. Here's the Pembina Valley Provincial Park in Southern Manitoba.
