Because Eventually I Have To Die, Maybe
Crossed Off! #298
One more thing crossed off of my ever growing list. Today, Adam and I went to Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump near Fort MacLeod, which satisfies #298 on my list. It was pretty interesting and Adam and I learned a lot about the art of sending buffalo careening to their death. It was really very windy, you can see Adam and almost I blowing off of the giant cliff in the pictures.
I think, to be very honest, the best part was the astounding view from the top of the cliffs. It was just amazing, you get see for at least 50 kilometres. It would have been better without the road, farms and other man-made crap ruining what should be mile after mile of unspoiled prairie.
The interpretive centre was very well done with lots of things to take pictures of. Oddly, lots of buffalos!! In stuffed form and in bone form!
I think Adam’s favourite part was the puzzle he managed to put together, which I took a picture of to display his puzzle prowess.
You can see my full array of pictures at my photobucket account.

Peggy’s Cove in Nova Scotia, Canada. I loved being there but it was quite cold (in February). Apparently, this is the most photographed thing in all of Canada. Odd.

So Adam and I have been slowly going over the details of our trip to Iceland, but not too much since 1. I don’t know when I can actually go 2. We don’t know if my friend-ette Irma is coming Now, I am a fan of doing things that make little to no sense. It

This week is all about things that aren’t about to make it onto my life list any time soon. I’m trying to be adventurous and open to new experiences, but some things are just beyond my personal threshold. Case in point: Pulpit Rock. The articles are still great and interesting, the subjects just happen to
My Top Ten

I think by now my list has every continent, and possibly even every country, on it. Of course, like with all things, I have a few favoured destinations, ones that distract me from everything. 1. Iceland Most people like warm destinations, but being Canadian, I prefer familiar temperatures and not having to buy new clothes
The Philosophy of “Just Do What You Want”

I don’t wax philosophical much on this blog, but in real life I’m the love child of Socrates and Plato (the gayest of all the philosophers: fact). And I’ve had a giant mental shift. The other night, laying in my super pink room, worried deeply about my future, Adam told me something that blew my

#591 – Tang

The conversation went like this Mom: Why did you get Tang when you don’t like orange flavour. Me: … Mom: I mean what inspired you? Me: I didn’t know what Tang was. Mom: Great job. And that was how crossing number #591 off my list went. When I added “Try Tang” to my list, I

Pulpit Rock Photo Montage image via Dilidou Heights are not my thing. Thus, Pulpit Rock in Norway scares the crap out of me. Just watching those people sit leisurely on the edge makes me sink to the carpet covered floors of my room in my “safety crouch” (reserved for swinging bridges, gondola lifts, driving on

This is a new feature I’m starting. Through Twitter and StumbleUpon I end up reading a ton of articles ever week that are relevant to my life list. Some are just other life lists, some are travel blogs, and some are how to guides for silly things. They give me inspiration, a good laugh, or

Hilarious that this is on your list. My husband just loves that there is a place named this and wants to go there too.
