Vancouver , Canada . BC

Hi

I am from Port Coquitlam about half hour fro, Vancouver anyone ????

Katrina

Hey, i used to live in Port Coquitlam as well as many other places in Van. I moved away a while back and am thinking of returning this Spring as it was so nice there. Where abouts in PC are you? I do not know anyone there any more so I would love to meet some new people before I go back. I have two children and maybe one on the way, when I lived there I had no children so I now need friends with kids. I lived close to Elks park.

I know this thread's gotten really old now but I'm just poppin' in to add myself to the Vancouver list. Over the last few days, I keep seeing the random maple leafer on the forums and am feelin' the urge to connect w/ more of "my people"!

Vancouver here!

Yay! Nice to meetcha leeane! You're in 3rd tri... no wonder I haven't seen you around yet! Congrats!

I'm a maple leafer as well.........
stuck in Ontario tho'
used to live in nelson for about a year........Maybe end up back in that area in a few years..
when I retire...lol

nice to meet you too ChillBilly! Are you in the "waiting to try" club right now?

I'm in the 2ww right now..well actually 6 day early test wait....or 9 day wait.
Hows the weather out there?? Its been so hot all week...30 during day BUT tonight as soon as I planted my cuc's and tomatoes transplants it goes down to 8' tonight. I am majorly pissed......( might be hormones from ctachng eggy or AF)..either way I am not happy.LOL

Just noticed I have waiting til july on profile...oops.....hehe I couldnt' wait til july

"northern ontario"... makes me think of that haunting KD Lang song... "Helpless"? Reallllly like that song... so beautiful and contemplative. The weather here? ACH... it's been terrible... they're calling it "June-uary" because it's been so chilly, cloudy and drizzly.... bad for people, but great for plants! Speaking of plants... just have to vent... I just came home to discover that someone RIPPED OUT and STOLE a beautiful plant from my back garden. I've nursed this plant back to health since last summer. It was just starting to fill in again and got big and strong again. Why would someone do such a thing?? Anyway, rant over...

Do you have a journal? Post a link to it so I can "stalk" yours too! I don't currently have any Cdn buddies to stalk! :)

No journal yet....but maybe I should.

What kind of plant did you have??? hehe cause certain ones are to hard to resist stealing..if u know what I mean!!!!!!!
I have been tempted to take a clipping of someone elses garden plant (but that was in a city when walking and it was kind of on sidewalk)..hehe

btw... wha cd are you? just curious

it was a lupine, a native plant to BC. It was just growing a flower shoot, too!! The strange thing is, they didn't just take a clipping... they DUG UP the WHOLE DARN THING!! I'm still shaking my head about it.

I'm currently CD 10 so I'm going to be kicking off a week of BDing starting today! Yes, you should definitely start a journal! Then again, since I started mine, I've become addicted to BnB... and spend waaay to much time on here! But, really, it is great because it's really helped me through the low times in this TTC journey. Post a link if you ever decide to start one!

We have lupins growing wild along the sides and on rock cuts along side highways. So pretty pinks, purples, whites. and about 50' of them...big clusters.

I may add some to my garden... somehting to remind me of BC.
Its been 10 yrs since I lived there so cannot remember any flowers..hehehehe
hard to remember much in that 10 month period...LOL

Wow... I've never seen such a large display of them in the wild before. The thief left me a little sprig with the root still intact so I'm going to try to revive it and hopefully will have a little shrub again in a few seasons' time. NOT going to plant it back in the back garden!!

Anyway, I'm going to stop boring you w/ my plant talk! Ha ha... for goodness sake, this is a forum for obsessing over pregnancy!! I tend to frequent the TTC journals... hopefully we'll keep bumpin' into each other in the journals??

I'm near Vancouver too, about 40 minutes east of.:)

Nice to meet you too Moraine! I see you're expecting your first little one... congratulations! I hope I get to join you soon in the "Pregnant Club"!

I'm in North Vancouver, BC!

Well, I know this in an old thread, but I'm in Burnaby....

So Chilliwack or Abbotsford area???

hey all, I didn't even know this section of BNB existed... how exciting!!! I live in Burnaby, we are hoping to buy in the tri cities area but that won't be for awhile pretty pricey!

Hey Junebug, is your pic in theat little park right by English bay?

No, we actually got married on Vancouver Island in Courtenay at Crown Isle (most of our families live on the island so it was more simple)

How did you like Crown Isle... OH and I have been talking about a location, we are about 30 min from there.

We couldn't have been happier with it:happydance:. The price wasn't too bad and the location was beautiful. We got married in June but decided to get married inside because we loved the grand stair case:cloud9:. The staff were extremely helpful and as DH says the food was awesome lol! My only advice is if you plan on having it there book it early as they are extremely busy (we booked in the beginning of Oct and the next available date they had was in June)

Cool... we are still waiting to plan. Trying to decide on that or another LO :)

ooooh now that's a tough one!!
heeheehee sorry I wrote so much about Crown Isle, we were just really pleased! I'm a little confused, your location is Edmonton?

No I'm actually living back on Vancouver Island and just haven't been able to figure out how to change my location yet. Tried the other night and just gave up. No worries. The more info I can get my hands on the better.

Hey if it helps, when you log in at the top right of the screen it says Welcome, Sweetie.
If you click on Sweetie it'll open your page, then click on about me and right next to location there's a little pencil, click on that and you should be able to change it!

Huge help... all fixed now! It kept bugging me but I figured that the mods are so busy that it wasn't worth bothering them for something like that

Hey, I just moved back to BC after living in Edmonton for 2 years. I'm in Mission now. Anyone else out in the valley?

I'm from Burnaby :)

I'm in New Westminster but we're hoping to move to East Van in the next few months.
