    I don't think I've ever been to a national park, although my family used to go to provincial parks when I was young. It's possible I've been to Point Pelee, though, and just don't remember.

    If you mean any home media, then this past Wednesday.
    If you mean a DVD that came in a combo pack with a blu-ray I wanted, then November 2.
    If you mean a stand-alone DVD because that's all that was available, then August 8.

    (No, my memory's not that great, but since I usually buy them from Amazon, it's easy to check! :lol: )

    I don't remember the exact date, but late June/early July timeframe.

    I was struggling with this one, thinking it had been years, maybe a decade... when I realized that I still get the physical copy of Star Trek Explorer. So, at most, a couple months, whenever the last issue was.

    I think it was March of 2022. Generally I try to save them for emergencies, but in this case Chapters gave some bonus points that expired, so it was use them or lose them.

    I hate driving in Toronto, so whenever I go, I take the train. But I haven't gone since the pandemic. So I'm thinking probably sometime in the summer of 2019?

    Don't remember, sorry. It's been a while.

    Summer 2016 for Star Trek Beyond.

    Hard to say! :lol:

    I think sometime in 2021.

    1) When was the last time you visited a National Park?

    July 2022

    2) When was the last time you purchased a DVD?

    Couple years ago I bought Outland, an Australian comedy about a science fiction club full of dorks set in Melbourne. It's disappeared off the internet so I grabbed the dvd on ebay.

    3) When was the last time you baked a cake?

    Maybe 8 years ago, not sure.

    4) When was the last time you read a printed magazine?

    Read the one put out by Qantas this year, before that the one put out by Singapore Airlines while stuck on a plane. They are very boring.

    Used up some Flybuys this year.

    6) When was the last time you travelled by train?

    Yesterday, and most days.

    My god I have no idea.. 1000 years ago?

    8) when was the last time you went to the cinema?

    Saw the Barbie movie a few months ago.

    9) When was the last time you were proud of yourself?

    I don't know, I don't really think in those terms. I guess I was pleased I hit my Goodreads goal in November recently but I don't know if I'd say proud.

    10) When was the last time you had a bath (as opposed to a shower)?

    21 years ago. And no do not ever give me bath products :lol:

    I did. I absolutely LOVED it. Sir Ian just knocks it out of the park. But then again so does everybody else in the film. :techman:

    You can't go wrong with "Shakespeare with guns". :cool:

    1) When was the last time you visited a National Park?
    Summer 2022, we went to the Grand Canyon and to Zion. We would have gone to at last one this summer, but four of us had surgeries between January and July so we didn’t road trip this year.

    2) When was the last time you purchased a DVD?
    Oh wow. Ummm. Maybe like 2009?

    (Sorry, one of my kids distracted me and I hit post)

    3) When was the last time you baked a cake?
    Last month. It was a cherry pineapple dump cake.

    4) When was the last time you read a printed magazine?
    Yesterday. My oldest got me a subscription to Real Simple.

    5) When was the last time you used the points on any loyalty card?
    Tuesday. I had Victoria’s Secret rewards.

    6) When was the last time you travelled by train?
    Summer 2022, we took a train into the Grand Canyon.

    7) when was the last time you played cards in real life (not on a computer, tablet or phone)?
    Last month, family Uno.

    8) when was the last time you went to the cinema?
    October, I think. We saw Taylor Swift’s Eras tour movie.

    9) When was the last time you were proud of yourself?
    A few months ago I spoke to an old friend’s son… I stopped talking to the friend about 20 years ago, and her kids were removed from her home a few months later. She died about 10 years ago. Her son contacted me and told me that as a child, my home was a safe place for him, and he loves going into World Market because it smells like my house.

    10) When was the last time you had a bath (as opposed to a shower)?
    Last week. My oldest works at Lush and keeps me all stocked up on Snow Fairy bath bombs.
