Aeroplan points are fucking useless. Seems like your only option is to use them when you give zero fucks on which days you want to fly.
We're going to Van island in July for the gf's family reunion and aeroplan is like, you can only fly out on one day of the week you're wanting to go, and it's a day I don't want to fly on.
I have a feeling I'm going to burn these points up on random trips to Calgary after I move and just ditch my aero gold visa and move to the Amex travel card I have which lets you book through any airline and claim points against whatever you book. You don't earn as much points wise as aeroplan, but at least you can actually book what you want and get a discount.

I hate our aeroplan card. I love my Westjet card though. Free flights once a year is great.

wasting more of our tax dollars! rabble rabble rabble!
lucky lucky, packing has been a pain, mixed with getting rid of random old junk, it's basically super spring cleaning as we're getting rid of a bunch of old shit that isn't worth moving across country. So it's good in that aspect I suppose.

Agreed. I got rid of 80% of my stuff when I moved to Hinton. I moved everything I had in a Chevy Savannah van. It was great to get rid of a ton of shit.

Looks like Invermere might be our gas/lunch stopping point on Monday the 16th. Any food recommendations with Gluten-free option for the celiac wife?

Remember meeeeeeee Brutal. Waited over 3 hours for the tire guy to show up, we were in the middle of nowhere northern Ontario.
He gets the tire off and the entire brake assembly falls to the ground in bits and pieces. Something went wrong, brake got stuck engaged, shoe melted to the rim, everything got super hot a went kaboom. Solid six hours wasted.
Driving across Canada with 3 working brakes and the trailer is making a clanging sound when I drive now.
In conclusion, fuck uhaul.

Oh god! Uhaul is the worst. I started paying more and use Budget or Enterprise now when I have to haul stuff. The quality isn't that much better, but the placebo effect helps.

Lately I've been wrestling with the thoughts of selling the WRX and buying a truck. It would most likely be a Honda Ridgeline because they are hot sex. Just for the ease of doing yard disposal and taking the bikes out for remote riding. My main issue is that I love driving manual, & having a sporty car. I'm also not keen on having a car payment, but traveling would be so much more comfortable too. The wife will be up for a new vehicle soon as well which doesn't help either. Her Forester has 1 foot in the grave already. She was supposed to buy last year, but kept putting it off and now we're into replacement mode for me. 2 payments would be absolutely ridiculous.

I figured you'd end up in Muddy Hole
Just discovered that's a place after looking up Burgeo
THE WEST IS DYING, EVERYONE IS LEAVING
J/K my heart will live on in Alberta.
That's cool though, East coast/island life is different but in a good way.
