Armstrong the Movers Arrived!!!

Armstrong the Movers from Thunder Bay finally arrived today (Sunday). Their truck broke down yesterday so that was why they were delayed by a day. Got to introduce myself to a couple of neighbours has I had to ask them to move their cars to allow the moving truck in. Now the fun begins emptying all those boxes. It was fun playing bingo with guys as they yelled out the numbers on the countless boxes and furniture. Everything arrived safe and sound. It was quite hot outside today too (+25c) - so they definitely worked up a sweat today. We went through about 2 pitchers of iced tea. Plus I made each of them a couple of ham sandwiches, cookies and Diet Coke as they worked right through the lunch hour - they were appreciative.


Hard at work - George and Keisha (with the blue cap). Both from TB. Very personable guys. Keisha is a graduate from Hillcrest High(Port Arthur end) as I was a Churchill High grad (Fort William end). I had taken the photo from the top of my stairs of the main level of the house.

The move is complete - about 6,800 lbs of boxes and furniture. Keisha and George are packing up their things for the next move - off to Canmore. Keisha has never been this far west and is just enjoying everything about Calgary. Told him, wait till you see the Three Sisters and other mountains around Canmore. Amazing.
