I've been wanting to do a blog-every-day-in-a-month thing for a while but with the wedding, buying a home, and the honeymoon I haven't been around for a whole month until July.
When I saw Allie and then Juliette post about blogging in July and that they would provide prompts I knew I had to participate. But I will say this upfront: I might skip some prompts and post Link-Ups or post things just because I feel like it.
July 1st 2014 - Canada Day
Let me start by saying that I am not Canadian nor have I ever even been to Canada. I like the country, though. They've been pretty decent to the US. Here are the things I do know about Canada:
Let me start by saying that I am not Canadian nor have I ever even been to Canada. I like the country, though. They've been pretty decent to the US. Here are the things I do know about Canada:
- I bought my car from a Canadian.
- Canadians like the fact that they don't have an "accent" (or at least this is what the car salesman said)
- They have taken in US boys who were avoiding the draft.
- It is to the north of where I live.
- It gets very cold and snowy in the winter.
- You have to drive through it in order to get to Alaska.
- My husband is sent to Ontario for work sometimes.
- I don't know many people (0) from Canada.
- My best friend was living just a few minutes from Canada until recently.
- I don't know a lot about Canada.
My knowledge is not very good. So let me ask a few questions to Faith who is Canadian. Excuse me for my ignorance.
- Does Canada have an independence day? (I know that the Queen is still considered the head of Canada, correct?)
- What is the school system like? Kinder through 12th grade? Are colleges free?
- Besides hockey, what is Canada's favorite sport?
- How did you survive without Happy Hour? (Yes, I've read up on your blog).
- Have you been to the States? What do you like or not like about it compared to Canada?
Tomorrow's topic is guilty pleasures, however I will have a post full of pictures from the wedding up in the morning!
