I live on the North eastern border of New Brunswick. I am a one hour drive from Campbellton which links the border of Pointe a la Croix in Quebec.

Here is a map from the mining company that wants our land, a long story.....You see the red box marked Nash creek Property. That's me.

Okay Tamara, I'm not Francine...

But would you back the map out one more time,
so we can see the where abouts
you are to us?????

I only have this map piece. It's the top half of the province of New Brunswick.

Just got news that someone bought a 12 million dollar winning ticket in Dalhousie, that's a 15 minute drive away from me. Hope it's family.

Weezie, found another one.

I'm in the middle of the red dot in New Brunswick, they are trying to get the land that is in the center of the red dot in Ontario also.

Wow, now I do understand how you are an hour
before me, and allllllllll that snow...

I hope everyone can get this map and put your dots
on it... I would reallllllly like to see how close everyone is...
Ther'es several here from Ontario...

I know for like Carly, she's got to be about 4 or 5 hours drive from me...
Wondering also about Christina..

Limey's up there, *I talk with him on occasion, he's closer to me I think than all of them..*
There is a Map Quest Map here, there are a few on that one too....

The dots were already on the map. A mining company wants to buy out both areas to make an open pit mine for silver and other stuff. There are 4 properties that make up the Nash Creek zone, and one family sold out last week.

I have no plans on selling so I am in for a fight.

We have something similar here, I live by an old ski~resort that went under, and it's the second highest peak in Western NY.. and believe it or not, a Canadian Company bought it, and there's been wild rumors of how they want to turn it into a big ski resort and hot tubs, villa's, blah, blah, blah....
**and to back track there's a town over 30 minutes away that's like that, and the people who lived there from like long time ago, can barely afford to live there, cause it's so Vermont $$$$ ski resort prices....**
and now they want to do that *rumors* to this one..
and it would make land worth more $$$$$$$$,
but to us, it's worth more money, if every one stayed away, and left it to be out in the country...and no people and private and QUIET!!!

Would if they bought your house, would the greenhouse acrossed the street also be in the selling area???

We gotta find out where Francine is to you...
Funny, I was thinking she was on the other side of Canada, West coast side???

I'm tryin' to find the Map Quest thingie
we used to have..
I'll go hunt it down..

See the large province between me and Ontario, that's were Francine lives.

Map Quest is on the main page of The Garden Helper... all the way on the bottom...

I hope she can put her dot on it,
so we can see where she is?????

She lives in Laval, Quebec. It's in the south western portion in the Greater Montreal area. I have an aunt that lives an hour or so away from her.

hello tamara and weezie,

my hears are burning i hear my name everywhere ...i ll go to mapquest right now and i ll try to post a pretty decent pix of where i am...in a few minutes you should get it,thanks for telling me weezie.

Franny.

PM'd you!!!

arggg! so much trouble with that puter today,sory tamara and weezie but keith should be able to do that tonight,i ll post the maps this week end for sure,sory again.

Franny

okie~dokie!!!
We'll be waiting to see it...

Got the map...
But draw it from like Buffalo....
*not New York City*

did it, did you receive it.

Franny

Got it!!!

Tamara's

That's so neat to actually see that!! Weezie, if you're that close to Buffalo, you're only a couple hours away from me!

It's funny how I'm actually south of you. We always think that Canada is north.

I'm coming over with the whole crew!

Looky, here's from Cindy to my house....



In case she ever decides to take a road trip!

I'm actually closest to Meg....she lives about 2 to 2 and a half hours away. Right near my 14 year old niece.

Christina,
Can you go do a map too??

Christina,
if you mail me the map,
after you punch in the info,
I can post it for you..

I give up. I'm getting frustrated ... I'm far too impatient! I'm in Sarnia Weezie, 'bout 3 hours from you.

Shots Christina...

It says it's a 4 hour drive but I can get to Niagara Falls in 2.5 hours.

I am probably from Niagra Falls about 1.5/ 2 hour drive from me...
I am still one hour South of Buffalo...

(I actually have relatives that live in Canada..
all the way up to Toronto, Barrie, and spread acrossed up there..)

I'm not close to anybody.

Weezie,

Sorry, gf, I have no clue how to post pictures or maps or pretty much anything else when it comes to cut and paste, in this forum or others. I can provide information, but I'm far from computer-literate. It's a means for communication for me, but the bells and whistles elude me.

I'm in Toronto, specifically the North York portion of Toronto, which I understand is probably meaningless to anyone who lives outside the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).

It's a nice idea tho.

Cheers,
Julianna

Hmmmmmmmm, I'll see if I can get a map..

Francine signed up on the map quest thing or
whatever it, and typed in the A to B, then sent
me the map, I posted it...

I PM'd Carly too, so we'll see if she gets a map up.. and you two should be in the same/ballpark area..

Did you get my map Weezie?

I'm sending it to myself as we speak

Here's Christina's...

In the grand scheme of things you all live very close. If I were to head to Buffalo to meet up with you all I would have to drive THIS:

Triss,
Ahhhhhh, I think I'd fly if I was you....
The party would be over if you drove...

Christina is about 5 hours..
Tamara is about 13 or 14 hours??..
Francine is about 6 or 7 hours??

I'm waiting on Carly's, if she can get one..
and her and Julianna would be about the same..

And waiting from Penny too!!!

weezie,if you need me to put a couple of maps ,i can help and do julianna s map to post.

Julianna if you would not mind,cause you d have to give me at least the name of the city where you live.

triss,i know it s awfuly long a trip,but my b i l does it every week,he s a truck driver,keith use to drive with him until the big accident,they do that in 5 and a half days.wow!!

:mu

ggs: here s to dluk vriders ...hic..and to gerders..hic m ean gradners..that s it got it won..!!!hic..hi..

Crazy Flannel.

5 and a half days back and forth...

I let the pilot determine the route.

But if I did drive cross country, Vancouver Island is 2 hours north of Seattle so I'd follow Triss's route. (Vancouver Island is the large island west of the west coast and just north of the U.S. border.)

I want to visit Francine. That way she can give me French lessons.

Sheri ,

tu sera le bienvenu et nous irons voir tamara(you ll be welcome and then we ll go see tamara) that way we ll both give you french lessons,i thing sh e speak s it a little bit if not a lot also...everyone is welcome here to visit...just tell me in advance.

weezie,did you get the maps i sent you today(emailed )

if anyone wants his map just tell me and i ll do it for you.

Franny
