I wrote this a month and a half ago and never published it. Since Yellowknife seems to be getting its last bit of Summer I thought I would throw this out there. I have become obsessed with sitting out on patios and decks around town to enjoy the wonderful Yellowknife weather, when it is nice of course. That is why I love grabbing a quick-lunch at Le Stock Pot. Although I ...
Did you see the living dead wobbling down the streets of Yellowknife today? These fine specimens braved the sun light and came out for the 2nd Annual Arctic Apocalypse. 25 Zombies walked, crawled, limped and wobbled up Franklin Ave around 3pm Saturday afternoon. The earliest Zombie Walks can be dated back to 2001. According Wikipedia, Zombie Walks, were billed as The Zombie Parade and the "brain"-child of Bryna Lovig. Just like ...
Have you ever felt the rhythm of a song and just wanted to dance, well you could call Zumba exactly that, but much more intense. Back on Canada Day Tara Newbigging, head instructor of Fit 2 the T Zumba, and her two co-instructors Donna and Heather, were about to go on stage to give a Zumba demonstration when she saw, local hip hop artist, Godson performing some of his songs. ...
I am a little disappointed in myself for not taking more of the Old Town Ramble and Ride in this year. Then again, another part of me is glad I relaxed at home for more of the weekend. That being said, I did get down on Saturday to check out some of the happenings of the event. I really enjoy this event, for many reasons. The first is because it is ...
It started off slow and a little wet, but by 12 noon the place was packed. The 2010 Northern Skies Yellowknife Air Show took place this weekend, and we were all unsure of the weather, once again. Most people like me arrived at 10am, when the gates opened, so we could get a decent parking space. The weather was overcast, but reasonable. As we all wandered around the grounds, admiring the ...

I forgot to publish this last Thursday when City of Yellowknife crews painted and rearranged the road lines. New turning lanes have been added to the intersection at Woolgar and Kam Lake Road. If you have already driven through the area, be aware that lanes are now different. On another note, I also saw, what [...]

If you drove from the Fire Hall towards the Winks gas station over the weekend you would have noticed the construction happening. City of Yellowknife crews repaved the 2 lane road with new “flatter” asphalt in hopes to get rid of some of the heave in the road. Asphalt was laid over the old heaved [...]

Every year I have taken a break from work and headed out on the open road. I enjoy traveling through Western Canada and seeing the landscape and places I rarely see. I’m sure this is the same for a lot of people. Maybe not Western Canada, but anywhere in general. As much as we may [...]

A couple of months ago I added a poll to the sidebar to fill a space. I didn’t think it would take very well, I never liked polls myself, but nonetheless it was there. The question I asked was, “What Do You Prefer.” With two options, Bullock’s Bistro and Wildcat Cafe. The entire time the [...]

We have not had a Tweetup in Yellowknife in a couple of months. After getting a couple of requests I finally decided to put the wheels in motion. Tweetups in Yellowknife are nothing like those in bigger cities, but we still have a good group of people who come out to say hi. What is [...]
