A Sacred Canadian Site – Peterbourough Petroglyphs

During my days as The Canadian Explorer I set out to film an exploration on the Peterborough Petroglyphs.  It is considered 1/3 sacred sites of Canada.

A petroglyph is a carving in rock from olden times. These Peterborough ones, there are 900 images carved into one huge slab of limestone, between 1000 – 5000 years old. Their origins remain a mystery.

I’m brand new at video making here.

See my old Razr?! And no law prohibiting cel phones while driving? I used MapQuest! Yay 2007!

da da da da da daaaa SPOILER ALERT: I didn’t make it.

Episode #3 – Exploring The Petroglyphs

Okay, no problem, and I set out again, presenting…..

Episode #7 – Exploring The Petroglyphs, Again

It was after this I found out that guess what…. you can’t film there.

No photos, video, nothing; they’re super-protected.

It’s not hard to find images online though.

I Love the Barking Fish Cafe in Cambridge ON*

It’s a special place, and I’ve only ever had a good time. Kay a really good kinda hazy time.

The people are non-judgy fun and the place just let’s you be you… and if you wanna get into some horseplay by the pinball machine after a game of pool, they’re like, unaffected. And if a old friend appears, who just got a big promotion you’d been cheering on, the Fish doesn’t care when you get rowdy because you’re so excited.

You’ll end up with only two grainy photos because you’re too busy having fun to take any, and know how I know it’s a good place? I left my purse unattended on the table, something I never do.

It’s a terrific spot… so if you go, don’t be a douche.

* part of the reason I’m doing this post is because there is nothing online for the Barking Fish, so I’m trying to rank in Google for it, because that’s funny.
