Having two left feet means nothing to the some people.  Prepare to leave all your preconceptions at the door as the AXIS Dance Company, one of the worlds most acclaimed and innovative ensembles of performers with and without disabilities will change the way you think about dance and the possibilities of the human body forever. Founded in 1987, AXIS has become a jewel of contemporary dance and disability culture and has paved the way for physically integrated dance form.

Yep, I’m writing about a store. Bass Pro’s Outdoor World is one of two stores (the other being Cabela’s in Glendale) that is a place for wheelers to sorta be outdoors yet be indoors. So I’m making it an honorary profile.

All you really need to know about this place is it’s huge, it’s got everything you could want for outdoor enthusiasts, and it’s a cool place to roll around. Last night, a few photographers showed up for a stuffed-animal photo-safari. It was 10 times funner than I expected, and actually somewhat challenging. The easy part of it all is the damn things don’t move. The challenge was positioning to improve the background. For a wheeler, its a rare treat to be able to shoot animals from a flat floor.

Regardless if you bring your camera, it’s a cool place. I give the people who do the interiors very very high marks. Its impressive to see all the animals, mountains, rocks, trees, water falls, etc. Both Pro Bass and Cabelas are a tad pricey, but given the venue, you can see why they need to charge a few bucks more.
