World's Largest...
I have decided to take you on a little tour of the pride of Alberta: its uncanny amount of giant monuments in little towns across the province. However, to make this more interesting to you and I, I will be presenting this in the form of a multiple choice quiz! How fun!!
1. Ukranians eat me for breakfast. My monument is found in Vegreville, AB. I am...:
a) World's largest bowl of borscht
b) World's largest Ukranian Sausage, aka, coil of poo
c) World's largest Pysanka
d) World's largest cabbage roll
2. Rumor has it that Tom Green dressed up like an alien and knocked on the mayor's house because of this little gem:
a) World's first UFO landing pad in St. Paul, AB
b) Canada's finest air force base in Cold Lake, AB.
c) The Trek Station in Vulcan, AB
d) World's largest mutant squirrel in Edson, AB
3. The picture to the left represents:
a) "I love the World's Largest Coil of Poo"
b) "I love Mundare's Ukranian Sausage"
c) An ancient Ukranian Tool used for digging beets
d) It's art.
4. If the Smurfs moved to Alberta, they would most likely reside in:
a) Andrew, home of the World's Largest Mallard Duck
b) Smokey Lake, home of the World's Largest Pumpkin
c) Vilna, home of the World's Largest Mushrooms
d) Cold Lake, home of North Eastern Alberta's only Walmart.
5. The town of Glendon boasts the World's Largest what?
a) hoe
b) rubber boot
c) stamp collection
d) Pyrogy
6. Eating this would be a gas:
a) World's Largest Mallard Duck
b) World's Largest Softball
c) Pinto MacBean, World's largest Pinto bean
d)Mozzy the Mosquito
Anyhow, this quiz could go on and on, but I'm tired, and seriously, there are too many roadside attractions in Alberta to mention. Here's a question, why in the world does Alberta have so many roadside attractions? Do they really generate more tourism, or do they serve some other purpose? This has plagued me for a long time.
If you wish to see pictures of many of these monuments, check out http://www.roadsideattractions.ca/alberta.htm.
I promise my next blog will be more inspiring.

Answer: We have so many roadside attractions to keep use busy in the summer months. Even before we were born people knew two woman were to be created needing summer fun, so roadside attractions were advented.
Yes it's all about us!
We know more about the landing pad in St. Paul then the people working there. Sad to say one summer I went seven times, the lady knew me by name at the end of that summer.

I think I really have 6/6 right, and that you had the first one wrong. I will take nothing less then 100%, if I have to work for the extra credit then you just tell me what I have to do. And you know I do just about anything. ( wink, wink) and by that I don't mean anything sick for all you weirdos out there.
