I also went to a bookstore where I found an entire section of books dedicated to this fair prairie city and province. Well over one hundred books! I guess there's more money to be made in books commemorating our past, than in getting people to actually visit these places. What a shame!
So I am disappointed that the site was closed, but I did manage to get some photos.
What I find so especially interesting about this site is that it belonged to a religious group that moved to another site when they felt that their way of life was being infringed upon by the ever-sprawling city. Five years later, the site burned down. I'm sure there's a whole lot one could say about that, but I'll leave it up to you.
