Out the left side of our coach we have a view of the barn, garden and off in the horizon Calgary. With partial hookups (water and electricity) and a view like this, I think we've found a piece of paradise.

Millarville is another hamlet in the area. This log church, built in 1886, is unique in that the logs are put in vertically.
