July 13, 2012 - swam in a "lake"
IMO, here in Alberta, we don't have lakes, more like sloughs. But thats besides the point. They actually called this thing a lake, so I'm crossing it off the list. I went out for a weekend of camping with my friend Sandy and despite the fact that I'm not really into camping, we had a pretty good time. I loved relaxing on the beach and cooling off in the "lake".
July 11, 2012 - Visited Grandma Trudel
On my way back from High Level I stopped in for a short but very sweet visit with my little Grandma. She wasn't expecting me and she so wanted me to stay longer. She is such a sweetheart and I could tell she really appreciated my visit. We had a light lunch, she showed me around the farm and her garden (I can't believe an 85 year old woman still plants a garden) and then I showed her some of my pics from my travels and she dug out all her old school pics. My fave was the one of Dad coming out of the outhouse! I wish she had let me take it with me!
July 8, 2012 - Took a Road Trip to the N.W.T.!
So my goal for the year was to visit a city in Canada I've never been to before - well how about a province (ok a territory) I've never been to before! As soon as school let out I took off to High Level to visit Dad, and when I discovered we were almost in the NWT I just had to go. So on Sunday Dad took the day off work to take me on a fantastic and memorable road trip! We hit the North of 60 border where I got an Arctic Adventures certificate and then kept going north to view some absolutely magnificient water falls. I have never seen waterfalls so powerful :) I had a great day with Dad and I'll never forget this trip!

July 4, 2012 - Painted a different colour on all 10 of my toenails
I did this one in High Level while I was sitting around doing nothing while Pa was at work. I looked like a clown for 3 days before I decided to change it up. Best thing is, I now have a pretty assortment of nail polish colours to match any outfit!
