Loving the grain elevator posts Steve. Be sure to include lots of old abandoned buildings as you come across them. All old buildings, be they grain elevators or what have you, have so much character oozing out of them, every angle, every photo is a winner.
BTW, did you happen to get any closer shots of the Harrison Milling building with the what appears to be a fieldstone foundation, just behind the two grain elevators? That one intrigues me, especially the stone foundation.
Hi Glen, I tried to take as many photos of the decaying buildings as I could.. but I was on a schedule so I couldn't linger too long in any place. There were plenty of abandoned farm houses I passed by that I wished I could have stopped for.
I didn't get closer shots of the Harrison Milling building and I'll tell you why. The owner I spoke with said they had some storm damage from the previous winter and he asked that I not photograph it until it was repaired. I appreciated his honesty and his request and I did not take any closer photos.

I went to your link on Holmfield and saw another shot from the Historic Sites of Manitoba. Hope you got some more you can share. :)

Steve, Chris and I (Chris and Connie BIGDoer - Connie's my nickname BTW) have got to make it out that way. So much nice stuff to see!
