Was wondering @Grasshopper is your new place furnished or are you going to have to go through all of those shenanigans?

It doesn’t have a thing, not even appliances. Months ago I would have been no way…. But now I am actually looking forward to getting things for the house.  It will help me to get to know the new area we will be living in.  
 

It’s also so different from my first house when I was at work more than home and had no money.  This time I have lots of time and a bit of cash so it will be fun to get my old lady home ready. 😊

I hope you're going to have a little rocking chair in the corner of the porch and take up knitting

 

Though you have a good few decades left before you become an old lady

I wouldn't even know where to start with knitting, I think @Buckster said he was a dab hand at it though.

so where you moving to now?

I made a lovely post explaining everything, but no worries…😉

I am moving to eastern Canada, Nova Scotia.  Driving across the country as of next week.  Should be a snowy adventure! 🙂

Be careful when going through new Brunswick if you are using a gps.. Stick to highways... Center of the province is void.. Roads are ice.. And infested with moose...

Thought I posted some house stuff one day on the Today thread when we were talking, good luck finding anything there after about an hour. 
Or maybe it’s on this thread, oh dear I’m not sure now….two old ladies we are…..😉😆

Oh I know all about GPS and remote places.  I did just spend a month in the North on one of the most remote roads in Canada.  We are sticking to the TransCanada this time so I am not too worried.

Moose, all good!  I have dealt with Elk, deer, bear, coyote, dogs, cats, lots of elk and deer, did I mention elk….😆

How many days do you figure before you arrive on the east coast...? 

We figure two weeks, depending on weather.  We depart in a week, so we should be on the east coast on or after Christmas.
