Where is it Wednesday: Feb 17

Well I guess last weeks picture was too hard. Maybe this week we’ll have better luck. Where do you think this picture was taken. Bonus point if you can tell me what it says. Leave your guesses in the comments.

IMG_0069 As there was no winner last week, the prize is still up for grabs. The prize is one of James Boraski’s new album NVR2L8.

Where is it Wednesday: Feb. 10

I am hoping that this Where is it Wednesday will get you out walking around in this nice weather looking for where the picture below was taken. I will give you a hit though, this is not in a residential area. So, no I did not take a picture of someones yard, I let Google do that.

The person who correctly guesses where this is in Yellowknife will win a James Boraski NVR2L8 CD, courtesy of James Boraski.

Where is it Wednesday: Feb. 3

Welcome to another week of Where is it Wednesday. The game where you guess where the picture below was taken. To guess all you have to do is post it in the comments below. The idea of this game is to get you out and about Yellowknife to see new and interesting things. Although this pair of shoes hanging over a power line are not a snowmobile parked on the street, they are still interesting.

This week does not have a prize, but it is still fun to guess, right? Good Luck.

Where is it Wednesday: Jan 20

Last week at the end of the post I asked if anyone was interested in offering a prize for the Where is it Wednesday contest. Well, I am pleased to announced that James Boraski and the Momentary Evolution have offered up 12 of their albums. We will be giving away one album one week in every month for the next year.

James and the band have played around Yellowknife and the north for sometime now. If you haven’t had a chance to hear him live go to our community calendar and see where he will be playing next.

Remember this is “Where is it”, so you’ll need to guess the location of the item in the picture below. To do so please leave a comment below with your guess and a valid e-mail address (which only I can see) so if you win I can contact you. The winner for this round will receive a copy of James Boraski’s album NVR2L8 (Never to late)

Where is it Wednesday: Jan 13

Lets go on an adventure out the downtown Yellowknife. This is somewhere where some go to catch things and where other use to live. Now go a head and guess away. This one should be easy.

Where is it Wednesday: Jan 6

I have to be honest, I’m not quite back into the swing of things after the holidays. I hope to be by next week and am back in a proper routine. To start getting back into the routine we have here the first Where is it Wednesday of the year.

This weeks photo was taken from a public place above the houses. The idea is not to guess the location of where the photo is, not where it was taken, but having an idea of where it was taken will help.

DSC_0526 copy Please leave your guesses in the comments below or by e-mailing them to kyle(at)ykonline(dot)ca. If you’d like to submit a photo for Where is it Wednesday you can send them to the same e-mail address. Happy Wednesday.

Where is it Wednesday: Dec 16

Welcome to Where is it Wednesday. For those of you who don’t know how it works I will explain. Each week while on my adventures around Yellowknife I take photo and then I pick one of those photo and try and hide it location. When I have a photo, I take it and post it here. Once you see it and think you know the location you can leave a comment with your guess.

The photos I use are from common places around Yellowknife that I’m sure most people go by. Take a guess and try your luck.

Where is it Wednesday: Dec. 1

Time to get back into a weekly routine of the Where is it Wednesday. I know it may seem lame but it a easy neat way to get to know Yellowknife and to get you out of the office or off the couch.

One hint: this is not a residential home. This maybe off the beaten pass for some but it is in Yellowknife, so if you know take a guess in the comments.

Someone needs to break Hughie’s winning streak! Good luck.

Where is it Wednesday: Nov. 18

Becuase Hughie is just that good, I decided to make a repost for this week. This time with a new rule: You are not able to win 2 weeks in a row. If someone wants to sponsor Where is it Wednesday, I’m open for anything.

This picture maybe obvious as to what it is but where exactly is it?

IMG_0114 Remember, go take a look around town to see if you can spot this and then come and guess. Leave your guess in the comment section, make sure to use a valid e-mail so if you win I can contact you. Guessing will be open until next Wednesday, good luck.
