    What is your favorite destination for a "daycation"? Gimli? Grand Beach? Kenora? Tinkertown? The Zoo? Kildonan Park?

    Yeah, well, none of those places are very RASCAL friendly, are they GOM?

    If I have a chance to get away, I usually try to get out to Kenora and Lake of the Woods. I'm not big on beaches, and I think the Canadian Shield country is much nicer (IMO) than Lake Winnipeg is.

    Gimli. I like Kenora, but to travel 2.5 hours there and back warrants a trip longer than a day. Plus theres more to do there than a day can hold.

    Winnipeg Beach or Gimli are nice. I like to actually go wherever they are having a little town fair. Even the sleepiest of towns are at their nicest during their fair. You get to meet the people, go inside the shops and little museum and really take your time wandering around. Nice way to get to know a town.
    Thankful People: wpg_idiot, Northlands

    I've said it before and I'll say it again....Pembina Hills south of Morden MB. Get off the pavement and travel on a good old country gravel road. Its as near to heaven as you'll get in MB. The only pic I have is with my daughter, sorry!

    A picture of the old home place where I was born in them thar hills. Still a few of these old abandoned farms around, makes a great day for exploring! Lots of wonderful memories this old shack holds, it burned to the ground 2 years ago.

    I thought that was one of the houses in SPD... Crikey EastSider, ya sound like you was borned in the 20's, and lived with no running water and an outhouse. I'll bet ya also walked 10 miles to school each day, up hill each way, with no shoes in 10' feet of snow. Sure Rosen and J2F did, but you too? ;>

    <blockquote><cite>Posted By: Winklovic</cite>Sunset in Gimli, looking east from the drag strip.</blockquote>They have drag in Gimli? What do the town folk think? Perhaps they are an offshoot of Islendigadagadurgan. We are an enlightened society aren't we? ;>
