Great to see such an interest; looks like we will have an awesome turn out....Don't forget to bring some equipment and also your best ideas.
Better to have it and not need it; then to need it and not have it...
Now I just hope I'll be able to unpack everything in time to put something together... our BoB's aren't that great so I hope to see how you all have put your stuff together. I'm thinking the actual bags and organization, not the lists of items.
lol - I had to edit this... I meant to say our BoB's are not that great 😳
My wife & daughter & I will be there. June 9 Timmy's Parking lot - got it.
So everyone is meeting June 9th at 12pm (noon) at the Timmy's in Cochrane??? What street is the timmy's on? I'm not that familiar with cochrane so any help with directions would be appreciated! Thanks!

Sorry to see that the meeting will be the 9th instead of the 16th, as it means I won't be able to make the meeting.. hope everyone has a great time!
Farmgal,
We will see you at the next one. July?? August?? Stay in the loop. Things are starting to gel in this network. That is good.

Will be back home in ontario for the next ones, I will see how mom is doing, surgery on 4th, home 7th or 8th, so trying to get a few hours off on the 9th is really tricky, but mom says that if all is well, we can get someone to stay with her so only time will tell..
On the other hand, figure if I miss the 9th, I will get a week or two under the belt for mom in recovery and then I think I might take a drive down to the new big mall cross iron mills and just send out a coffee invite on the list and see if anyone wants to get together and meet me in person 🙂

Just a reminder the address and location are on the very first post, some were asking for directions...

directions to timmies in cochrane
take hwy 22 north from hwy 1
cross the bow river in cochrane and take your first left( no lights there at westrock road)
go west one block and take your right (at the smitties)
this is westside dr
go north on westside dr until you see the sign on your right
dairy queen shares the parking lot and a+w is down the street
from hwy 1a crowchild trail
west until you come down the big hill into cochrane
proceed west until you come to hwy 22 lights turn left
proceed south on hwy 22 to the next set of lights (quigley drive) turn right onto quigley
get into the left lane asap because the next lights turn left onto westside dr and its about 100m on your left
Well, I made it to the meeting today but nobody else showed up. That might be because I got my dates mixed up and today is the 2nd of June, not the 9th. I walked around the parking lot looking for folks that looked like they might be preppers. What the hell do preppers look like, by the way? Anyway, I asked a few people if they were preppers. They politely shook their heads and stared at me like I was about to tell them all about "The Lord, Jesus". I then went to the motel across the street and down a bit to borrow their wi-fi hotspot. Once I logged on to this site, I realized I am a week early. Good thing I only came from Calgary. So, if anyone needs directions, I can help you...I have been there!
See you next week.
Dendrite,
Today there was a meeting in Ontario. If you were monitoring their forum.
Was it a good test run?? Careful, them preppers are crafty bunch.
See you next week.
