The last grain elevator on the prairies.





Altoona? Preeceville? Cut Knife? Actually, this is Kinsmen Park in Saskatoon. And the "elevator" in question is used more as a backdrop for graffiti and tagging than for any sort of agricultural pursuit.

With the lack of snow this winter in Saskatchewan (or, at least, so I've heard) you can see the railroad tracks that still ferry around pre-teens and nostalgia-seeking twentysomethings in the summer peeking through.

I think that next time I need to get myself really excited about something, I'm going to pump my fist and shout "Jynker! Zeke! Sirius! Serge!" And then maybe bite the head off a live gopher.
