the ones taken on july 11th, 2023 were when masyn visited saskatoon during & after me and nathans highschool graduation. the summer of grand freedom. total teenage ruckus was/has always been the goal. so one night me and may grabbed nathan from his house and drove two hours that-a-way till the 'Gateway to the North' prince albert. then, a little farther to reach the abandoned La Colle Falls Hydroelectric Dam. through the trail, through vast, vast darkness, like opening a christmas present, this mighty concrete glittery goliath stood in the wide, open forestial expanse welcomed us. hello, hello. sounds of river running , winds through boreal trees, underneath unpolluted skies, lit by manifolds of stars, and legions of angels. hello. hello, la colle. and exploration, climbing walls, hello graffiti, hello artifacts. until we reached the locked-location to higher ground, obstructed by a small part of the river! gathering clues on other ways around, the investigation concluded quickly as it was evidential that Past Teenage Ruckus Stars brute forced it: we had to jump. we had to use the sticks our past-peers had used to walk foot-front-foot against the giants body, careful, slow, and jumped onto the main dam. nathan, our ever darling hero, led us forward. and the rest was to climb- and, again with the tools of our forefathers, to the top of our gentle jumbo. what greeted us was all worth it: the aurora borealis . piercing darkness. what a sight. what a sight , what a sight. and we sat there. and we laid there. and we watched . and it watched us . our adventures concluded. you only get one summer-after-highschool story, and this was ours . getting down, and going back the car was one last challenge, and much more difficult . our darling hero was the last to make the jump back- and he was terrified! to pump himself up, he did a free style rap to build up the courage , the spirit of hardcore parkour blessed him and (well, the real story was that it didnt work and he was still scared and took a little more time) jumped! and landed back on safe land . & we said goodbye. 'goodbye, la colle.' and exited through the gateway, back home.
that was the last night anyone has seen nathan. if you have seen this ma-
