Ever since going to museums for extra credit assignments in school, I have grown fond of them.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a museum of natural history or an art museum, I like to grab a neighbor and spend a few moments walking the endless halls.
It’s particularly special taking a glimpse into the past with the artifacts on display inside. When I was a kid going to school in Alberta, Canada, the people I was with and I used to visit the natural history museums in Edmonton and Calgary, and our favorite part about these field trips was getting to see the giant dinosaur exhibit. In Canada lots of the woolly mammoth bones have been found and there is no shortage of them in natural history museums from the pacific coast to the atlantic shoreline. These towering creatures existed until the Holocene epoch when they went extinct, the last in a long line of mammoth species existing on Earth. When I moved to Toronto from Alberta, I was amazed by the sheer amount of museums in the city. For instance, there is the Scarborough Museum, the Ontario Science Center, the Canadian Language Museum, the Royal Ontario Museum, and The Black Museum to name just a few. Recently our close neighbor Oliver and I decided to get high with a cannabis vaporizer pen before spending a Saturday morning at the Aga Khan Museum. This amazing museum showcases Islamic and Persian art. I appreciated walking the halls after a few puffs off a cannabis vaporizer pen. It’s even better enjoying Toronto’s many museums when you can stash a cannabis vaporizer pen in your pocket.
