Well, admitidly, I have only spent one night there (in me truck) but I can think of a few things. You can go and photograph that funny looking building on the main drag (is it a restaurant?). Umm... you could drive towards taber and look at the McCain frozen french fry factory. Umm... you can try and get a truck under one of those low bridges off highway 3 onto the industrial area (I did that first time I was there and it went under.... just ) Umm... Frank Slide is a bit too far probably Umm... if you can get up to claresholm, there's a public weigh scale you could jump up and down on, see if all that fast food's having any effect Umm... you could take a bag of peat moss down to Coutts and set off the border radiation detectors (I don't think they'd find it funny though) Umm... oh hell... think of somethin yourself

Really? Apart from gettin fuel at the Petro and a quick feed at Smittys, I've never paid much attention to the place. Just somewhere I turned South to head for the Border.
They apparently have a big corn festival there. Taber corn is famous, I was told.

I didn't realise they were that big. Or is it just that everyone keeps leaving?
