Yellowknife is far. Far from what? - you ask. Far from everything. The nearest town is over an hour away, and it is really small, and far. After that, everything else is really really far. It's just far.

We had fun there, though. Even though it was April, the lakes were all frozen and there was lots of snow. We went walking on a lake. OK, actually, it was a tailings pond.

I drove on Great Slave Lake. It was really cool.

Heather and Lee and Chris tried to figure out how deep the ice was, but they just couldn't figure out where to put the ruler.

I ate lots of wild meat.

My hair stood on end because it was so dry and cold.

We saw the coolest Northern Lights EVER!!!

It was all pretty darn awesome.
