…and since this is a thread kinda about getting James Bond-dreaming Miss Spock to travel outside the North Saskatchewan River valley maybe someday she would like to drink cheap wine, get nekkid and dive off boats in my mountains.

I hope this post qualifies as “an tidbit from around the world.”

Technically true, although most of the really cool waterfalls are in Dundas and especially Waterdown. Boyer’s falls is my favourite, very few people know about it…

I’ve never been there. I’ll have the check it out. It has the look of Webster’s Falls like you can walk behind it.

Webster’s is beautiful but there are too many people there now.

The cubans are just a distraction. We’ve been colonizing Miami since 1982, just quietly.

Nebraska has wind.

and corn

and football.

Omaha, Nebraska hosts the baseball College World Series every year. We actually spent millions of dollars just to build a stadium just to host the event…It only takes place for 2 weeks out of the year.

At the University of Nebraska-Lincoln im pretty sure we invented NASCAR walls. Invented might be a strong word, but they are our design and build. Im not sure you can really invent a wall anymore, at least not after the chinese went ape-shit with their wall way back in the day.

And we have wind…god I hate wind.

Well, those sure are some nice hills.

I am wondering if this is a real place in texas, and if anyone has been there?
