Cahokia museum is awesome I would say, pyramids so up north, it's something ! And also you see the influence from Mesoamerica in the arts and decoration of Cahokia, not only in its architecture. I would love to go to buy the litle carved board that has a snake skin at the back, possibly a link with the myth of quezatcoalt and Kukulkan. My GF of the time bought it and I'm on her will for that piece lol !!!

I've been here: [a href="http://www.ftdechartres.com/page/page/1396753.htm"]http://www.ftdechartres.com/page/page/1396753.htm[/a]
granted its not completely 'authentic' anymore it was 'restored' back in the 40's but it is still cool. Still don't know how to say that everyone says Fort Charters even though its spelled Chartres. I figure its said wrong because near by towns are called Prairie du Rocher (said du Roacher) and of course my favourite Renault (Ren-alt) bwhahaha.

Aaaah the time New France could have become the largest "country" in the world...

P.C. wrote (after pic...lol) Wow !!!! How frightening Michel. He's not exactly a small bear...is he !!!!!!!

I DID see it Michel. MOST impressive ideed ! You must have been terrified.

Actually no, we had a good laugh (ok a little bit nervous one maybe). Can you believe it ? lol It still put a smile on my face just thinking about it while I type this reply.

It is certainly an experience that most of us will never get....increasing the 'thrill factor'. I think in retrospect, it would bring a smile to my face too.

Michel · Aug 10 07 10:35

yeah, it could have been a very bad experience, but it was not. Despite that, we saw 51 bears on that trip, and this was the only agressive one. This explain in a certian way the pleasure to see one very active.

Sportsdude · Aug 10 07 10:36

you know part of me wants to go into the bc wilderness set up a deer stand in the trees and start taking pictures of animals. But I think I'll just go to the zoo or the bears at the top of Grouse Mountain. lol

Although I really really really really really really really want to go to Tofino during the peak whale season. That would be AWESOME.

You'll be able to do that within a half hour of where you'll be SD. We have bear and cougar in our yard. (well....a cougar only once..... that we know of)

Sportsdude · Aug 10 07 10:43

ah cool! yeah we have bobcats and coyotes here. I've seen so many deer they don't fascinate me. I've run into a moose before in Colorado that was interesting..

But I think I'll just go to the zoo or the bears at the top of Grouse Mountain

Hum by experience, it's as exciting as looking at porno instead of doing it... lol

When I go hiking I'm always a little worried about wild animal attacks such as from cougars [span style="text-decoration: underline; font-weight: bold;"]or coyotes.
