Prairie crossroads
The archetypal ‘Miles and miles of nothing but miles and miles’ fascinated me for its stark and uncluttered landscape. I pulled over to snatch this photographic memento of a part of the world I am unlikely ever to revisit. I thought of Cary Grant finding himself in a similar location, suddenly to get attacked by a crop-spraying biplane. No such drama for me, happily. My hired Mercury Cougar proved a plush and smooth mile-eater as I headed towards Saskatoon.
