Only a couple pictures this today. This one demonstrates how close to nothing town is. Apartment building, greenspace and nothing for hundreds of kilometres. People at work were telling me about how the isolation kicks in after about 6 months when you realize that there is nowhere to drive to for an afternoon or a weekend. That this is it. As an example, Edmonton (the closest city) is 1500km from here.

About Me
- Name: NorthofYou
- Location: Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada
Spent some of my formative years in an Ontario Village called Lanark and went to Uni at Waterloo for my planning undergrad. Graduated, got a job and drove to Yellowknife to work for the City. Far away from friends and family. On the way I met some people, saw some things and did some stuff. Now I live here and spend my time trying not to be bored or boring.
