Abandon your to-do list and go somewhere else. Somewhere new. Somewhere you have wanted to explore. Bring a camera and take a picture to celebrate the moment when you abandoned anxiety and insecurity, embraced imagination and opportunity, and let life unfold.
Not going to lie, this is going to be very difficult as today is my last day of classes and I need to finish some papers by tomorrow and I have a sick degu who is going to the vet later today, so I really hope that I can do this, but today is like the worst day for me to do this, lol. I guess that's probably the point though... I'll return later and post about what I did :)
All right, so we did it. Lianne and I drove to Saskatchewan and back tonight. Neither of us had been, and since I had to have a random adventure somewhere where I've never been, this seemed like the perfect time to head to Lloydminster. We left our house around 7:30pm, and stopped off at McDonalds first of course. After picking up some food, we headed to the Yellowhead Highway and our eastward adventure.
We made a pit stop in Vegreville, and then pulled into the Alberta side of Lloydminster around 10pm. See, Lloydminster is a special city because half of it is in Alberta and half of it is in Saskatchewan. We drove around a bit on both the Saskatchewan side and the Alberta side to see if they had any 24 hour diners, which unfortunately they didn't. BTW, Lloydminster should work on getting a Denny's.
After driving around a bit, and going to the WalMart for another pit stop, we found the City Hall and their really tall provincial border markers.
They are pretty tall.
It was freezing outside, so we quickly took these pictures, then jumped in the car for our 2.5 hour drive home. I sang and car danced a bit on the way home while Lianne drove. I've had a total of about 3 hours of sleep in the past day and a half, so I'm going to go pass out now.
