any canadians still here?

oldpaganfreak · 12-31-2008, 12:31 AM

are there any other canucks out there who survived the subscription scourging?
the last message was a week ago amd that about a meteor shower last month.
northern alberta still seems to be a safer place to be. the disturbing stories seem surreal. how are other northerners dealing with the current scenarios?
i hope the best for all in the coming year.
peace, patrick

Still Here old pagan freak and I believe 2009 will not be a good one for all of us , so we need to get on the same page and work on what`s wrong with us to correct any possible disasters this coming year . In any case have a good New year and best of luck to you and your family in the coming year

I just updated to the new subscription. Maybe we'll get more people slowly coming back. Avalon is the best community site as far as I can see.

Best wishes to everyone for the new year! Looks like it'll be an interesting one.

futureyes · 12-31-2008, 09:45 PM

eh ... still here, not going anywhere ...

waited a very long time for this party, wouldn't miss it for anything!

there'll be some crashers that attend but that's ok, they are expected, love and light of all others will prevail ...

it will become a celebration like no other!!!

stand tall in your light ...

know love, feel love, be love ...

with love

Yes, I am still here from Brossard, Quebec. This is my favourite place on the internet. Happy New Year to all and best wishes for the coming year. Let's manifest a good one! Diane

Wormhole · 12-31-2008, 10:36 PM

Starlah,
I live in Vancouver, BC Canada. I travel to the States and set up ground crew meetings a lot there. I try here in BC, but it's so expensive to live in Vancouver, I'm afraid every one gets too tuckered out by the time the weekends show up! Perhaps it's the rain, or more recently the snow! But people are a little less likely to get off the computer here and meet face to face, perhaps they are just too sleepy

? I've had two meetings here, and so far it's just been me and Mizar chewing the fat over coffee.

Peace of Mind,
Wormhole

Happy New Year from Kelowna!

gatestar · 01-01-2009, 06:21 PM

Victoria, BC is still here!!! Happy New Year!

01-02-2009, 04:36 AM

Happy New Year fellow Canuks!

To a Pine Beetle Free Northern Boreal Forest and Montane Cordillera in 2009!!!!

(It's cold here this winter - and it kills 'em. The winter weather has been mild for several years, so it's been a very big infestation problem - hectares & hectares of forests going.)

To me, it's a beautiful, good omen!

Wormhole I appreciate the fact you've had two meetings for the Ground Crew here in Vancouver BC...what people are focusing on around the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island is probably "grit" survival or just their daily life routines/activities. As for snow it was 2 ft. deep recently in the suburbs.
Your meetings in Vancouver haven't coincided with my working schedule...perhaps you could organize a "meeting" around the Victoria area on a weekday evening? I know of some excellent coffee shops.
Private message me on that and think I can provide a list of at least 3-5 persons on this Forum membership who might be interested.
Ciao. Starlah.

Some of you may know this already but I just found out about this two days ago. Costco online sells MRE 7-day Emergency Food Kits (heaters and shipping included) for 124,99$. Not cheap but hey, this product is listed in the Fine Foods category.
