Holy Trinity Anglican Church





A country church and cemetery near Paradise Valley, Alberta.





The interior looks original to when the church was built in 1911.


One last look at Holy Trinity Anglican Church and Golden Valley Cemetery and then on my way.

Lincoln Valley



Lincoln Valley Township School is near Fortuna, North Dakota.


Schools in North Dakota were often named after the township where the school was located.  This one is only about ten miles south of the Canada/U.S.A. border and it's a beauty.

Bridstow School Markers



Bridstow School was near Kitscoty, Alberta.  The schoolhouse is long gone but there are three signs marking the spot at a country crossroads.  The most prominent is one similar to many school signs in the Alberta countryside.


A concrete monument...


...with a tiny handmade metal schoolhouse on top.


A sign memorializing the school in a "street sign" design.


All three signs at the fence corner.

An old community hall in Minburn County, Alberta.


I couldn't find a town, school, church or cemetery named "Bruno" in the area...but "Bruno" it is.
