Day trip: the big things of Alberta

Following a little free time project earlier this year in which I started plotting a place marker map of all of Canada's 'big things' (strange and unusual roadside attractions) using Google Earth for bigthings.ca, it seemed only sensible that while I was in Edmonton I should take a day out of the city for a mini road trip, to see just a few of Alberta's big things. Many thanks to Tara and Crista for driving, and to Mana for drooling.

From top to bottom:
  • Cowboy boot, Edmonton

  • Baseball Bat, Edmonton

  • Psyanka (Ukranian Easter Egg), Vegreville

  • Kielbassa (Ukranian Sausage), Mundare

  • Mallard Duck, Andrew

  • Mushrooms, Vilna

  • Pumpkins, Smoky Lake

Love the "Big Things!" Totally the kind of road trip I would go on. Looks like you had great weather, too.
