Old Wives rests upon the expansive, open horizon of the southern plains, anchored firmly to the salt-rimmed shore of Old Wives Lake. It lies 38.4 km south-west of Moose Jaw, SK (from Moose Jaw, SK: bearing 236°T), and is situated 12.0 km south-west of Lillestrom. The sky here possesses a weightless quality, a vast pale dome that presses down upon the grasses until the light at dusk turns the earth into a bruised, shimmering violet. While the Wood River flows with a persistent, quiet purpose about 16 km away, the landscape immediately surrounding Old Wives remains defined by the saline influence of the lake, where the wind carries a sharp, mineral scent that clarifies the air. Life in Old Wives moves in alignment with the cycles of the earth, where the agricultural legacy of the region dictates the slow turning of the seasons. The resilience of the land has shaped the character of those who work the soil, fostering a quietude that persists even through the long, biting winters. In the stillness of the afternoon, one might observe the way the sunlight catches the edges of the grain elevators or the distant, shimmering surface of the water, revealing a stark beauty that exists without need for ornament. Old Wives maintains a steady, solitary presence, grounded in the persistence of the crops and the enduring, cyclic return of the migratory birds that seek sanctuary along the shore.
