Rowley, Alberta (Canada)

_______________________________________________________________________________

Fields of flax at Rowley, Alberta  – across the Canadian prairies, the iconic grain elevators seen in the background here are quickly becoming a thing of the past. Built almost entirely of wood, some have burnt to the ground and many have simply rotted to be replaced by modern metal silos. Rowley Alberta is now a ghost town whose claim to fame is having been a site for the Movie “Bye Bye Blues”. Locals are rebuilding and rejuvenating a few of the original buildings in order to attract tourists.
