A Military Move Made Easy with Tims

views

Many families across Canada are told the news each and every year. You've been posted! Being part of a military family you know it's only a matter of time before you hear the words that turns everything upside down just for a little while. You now have to pack, sort, organize all your belongings so you can get on the road to move! Our move was going to be from Calgary, Alberta to Canadian Forces Base Petawawa, Ontario. We Google the trip and found out that it would be just over 3,300kms! We decided to take the opportunity to drive and make a road trip out of it! We planned and mapped out everything.... our overnight stops, fuel stops, food stops, and last but certainly not least, our Tim Hortons stops!!! Our adventure across Canada took us 4 days / 3 nights to complete and took us through 12 Tim Hortons where we purchased 12 large triple-triple coffees, 12 large Iced Caps made with fresh milk and the odd 20 pack of Timbits! We stopped at Tim Hortons in Calgary, Medicine Hat, Swift Current, Regina, Brandon, Winnipeg, Kenora, Thunder Bay, Wawa, Sault Ste. Marie, Sudbury and North Bay! We arrived save and sound in our new town of Petawawa late at night, so we moved what we had into our new home and went to sleep! The next morning we started our new life with 2 breakfast sandwiches and 2 large coffees from the Tim Hortons located conveniently just down the road from our new house!!

To MrsWilson in Victoria! Thank you for the welcome! I am enjoying Ontario very much thank you! It nice to see such green grass and actually rainy days, something that didn't happen too much in my 4 years in Calgary. I heard that CFB Esquimalt is in a beautiful location!! I hope you enjoy your new home too!
