There’s no time. NO TIME. I just have to show you guys this:

Just a dead gopher minister preaching while a dead gopher sleeps and a dead naked gopher angel hovers overhead with a harp.

Just a dead albino gopher with satanic eyes trying to lasso a dead clown gopher.

The Gopher Hole Museum basically altered the very course of my life. I might ditch every dream I’ve ever dreamt just to volunteer in the same vicinity of a couple dozen dead/dressed gophers. I mean WOULDN’T YOU?

But guys, the Gopher Hole Museum was only the beginning of a truly momentous week. Check out some of my favorite moments from Alberta and then across the stunning Canadian Rockies to British Columbia!

#RunningTo: Vancouver, BC
I rented a bike for 6 hours and rode all over Vancouver! Life-infusing doesn’t describe half of it.

I couldn’t find an American flag on Independence Day. Close enough?
#RunningTo: Vancouver, American Flag
OK, so I did happen to find an American flag in Vancouver on Independence Day. God bless Canada.

Have you ever spent Independence Day in another country? How did you celebrate?
