We could, where I lived, which was just the equal of Angus', but on the other end of the city. I could go across the street and bring home, either some chokecherries or Saskatoons to eat, to make jelly. And bring home a bouquet of flowers, you know? That was wonderful. You live with that and it's part of your daily life, that you're imbued with all this around you and I guess we were like "country bumpkins", I don't know. But we've always loved the prairies and if the prairies have a little dip to them, oh how beautiful that is! We don't need the mountains!
