Introduction
As always, greetings to all readers of "Daltons in History"!!
Kate and I returned from our trip to the United States and Canada on 10th October, so October has been a short month for us at home, catching up with everything after nearly a month away, and now the time has come round quicker than ever for me to write my notes for the November issue of “Daltons in History”. No matter, there is plenty to report, so here goes!
First of all I will report on a number of important new matters, and then below them you will find the latest news about DGS events and activities, together with the usual updates to keep you fully informed about what we are doing.
The Salt Lake City Gathering
It is now over a month, since we bid our farewells in Salt Lake City after the 2011 DGS Gathering, a truly memorable event, about which you will find further reports in this issue of “Daltons in History”. In the last issue you will have seen brief reports from myself and Karen Preston, a few photographs and links to the videos of all the presentations, compiled by David Preston. This month we carry my personal diary of the weekend, reminiscences from delegates, more from Karen, and links to the full photo gallery. We have also improved the

Forgotten Prairie: Esther Alberta
Perhaps a year or so back Team BIGDoer was approached by Rueben Tschetter, a well respected film producer and videographer with Cache Productions, Red Deer Alberta. Seems he’d been watching some of what we were up to – exploring abandoned places and ghost towns and chronicling the experience – and thought it a worthy subject for documentary. Didn’t take much convincing. We are in!
And with that, plans were made.
Fast forward to April 2017 we’re exploring several abandoned-type places close to the Alberta-Saskatchewan border and the filmmaker is along. It’s us, a couple photography friends, the freaking cold and our targets, four ghost towns visited over four days of heavy filming. One of these places, Esther Alberta, is the focus of this here piece.

First things first, Esther is on private property. If you ask the last residents politely, the owners of the place, they will allow you to wander about and explore however. And they’ll happily chat you up about the buildings seen and their history. Take time to listen and learn.
Esther dates from the mid-1920s
