This is one of Hafford’s big tourist attractions. Since Hafford is a small place, it’s actually a very small tourist attraction, a clump of trees on someone’s farm down a country road off a country road. But they’re weird trees: Aspens, just like the other clump across the parking lot, only different.
Different, just like the name says: Twisty.

It was hinted darkly to me by a local that Mysterious Forces Were At Work; and the little sign by the grove trumpets the mystery. But Wikipedia reveals that this is, probably, a mutation.
Hunkered down in the weeds between the twisted trees, this entirely untwisted wild rose, one of the Prairies’ most lovable citizens.

Between this and your cottage posts, I continually find myself wanting to visit Canada in the summer.
