Lindsey barely survives visit to BC Natural History Museum




The Royal BC Museum Corporation is one of the foremost cultural institutions in the world. The museum was founded in 1886; the archives in 1894. In 2003 these two organizations integrated to become British Columbia's combined provincial museum and archives, collecting artifacts, documents and specimens of BC's natural and human history, safeguarding them for the future, and sharing them with the world.

The pictures tell the whole story of how Keith Lindsey survived his visit to the Natural History Gallery.

He reported that he actually really enjoyed the First Peoples Gallery, but since they don't allow photographs in that location, we have no actual proof that he really visited there. I never saw him there. He made his way to the restroom and when we bumped into each other an hour later it was in the Modern Historical Gallery.
