The above photo is a copy of one of Wilf Miller’s oil paintings of his old farm. Miller says

Carry me back to Castor, Alberta

There’s where the wheat and the oats and barley grow

There’s where the birds warble sweet as cattle rustle

There’s where this old pioneer’s son has longed to go.

There’s where I laboured so hard for my old father day after day   in the fields of golden grain

No place on earth do I love more sincerely

Than the plains of Alberta, the place where I was born.

- By Wilf Miller
