Four years and going strong
 
Hi everybody, I've just realised that on Saturday 27th I had been in Canada for four years. During this time, I have lived in three different homes in two different provinces, have driven from the East coast to almost the West coast twice.
Additionally, I have become a Canadian citizen, and am very proud of my Canadian passport. We now live in a home a few K's out of Chilliwack. The scenery here is amazing; every day, I stare at the local mountains and wonder whether I died and went to Heaven. The local fishing is awesome ( spot the Canadianism there). The deer walk through my garden most days and we have a "local" bear.
Do I sound emotional? .....well I am. I am enjoying life to the Max. Hasn't been all plain sailing, of course. There have been a few bumps in the road. Overall, I am very happy with with the decisions I made about coming here.
Steve

You might be very near us, Steve!
If you know where the plane crash memorial is, then we are in the same area. ;,)
It is beautiful and tranquil, definitely.

Glad the four years has been kind to you.

You have probably fished up near us! A bit "end of the line" up here.
It is great seeing the eagles and watching the fish swim by.
We wouldn't swap with the city.:starsmile:
