John and I are moving. Not just to another house, but to another town. For anyone familiar with British Columbia's west coast, you'll know the Sunshine Coast and the town of Gibsons. That's where we're headed. It's about half an hour or so north east of Vancouver, about 3 hours closer to my family than we are now.
Beginning in November, John will be the new general manager of a restaurant, Molly's Reach. This is what we'll see every day...
And this is where John will be working...
Those of you who read this blog and grew up in Canada (and perhaps other parts of the world where I understand it may still be in reruns) will recognize Molly's Reach from the old TV show "The Beachcombers".
This has been in the works for a little over a month now. This week, we made the decision to accept the position and move there. I will not be involved in the restaurant. I have no problem with that. I have every intention of finding myself another job, and with my various skills, I'm sure I won't have a difficult time.
So, there you have it. No need to hold your collective breaths any longer.

Molly's Reach!!!! That is so cool. Watch out for Relic. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great move. That view everyday would be amazing.
ReplyDeleteThe Beachcombers! Man, I used to watch that show on Sundays, after church. It was on the CBC right? Right after Fraggle Rock? :)
ReplyDeleteHee hee. This just made me smile. I live in Gibsons. I guess we'll be seeing you or at least John, down at Molly's Reach! And the wonderful Fibre arts festival. Welcome to paradise.
ReplyDeleteKnew it was gonna happen, conga rats. May even get to see you a bit more as I get down to coast far more than I ever did to Kelowna.
ReplyDeleteHugs honey - that's wonderful news! Not, I'm sure, that you're especially thrilled to be moving again in less than a year :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a beautiful area - and a TV star of a restaurant! Woo-hoo!
Wonderful! You will LOVE Gibsons. Its very artsy, very laid-back as well as very beautiful. You will have to let us know if the "floating gardens" are still in the harbour! I know my daughter really enjoyed living there. Ya better get packing! :)
ReplyDeleteMoving again, you poor thing!! But, this one will be fun & you're moving to one of the prettiest parts of the Coast. Another thing about the Coast, you'll need WOOL in the winter because it's damp & cold, especially on the water!! But you have the skills & we'll be looking forward to plenty of pictures on your blog!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, I am going to miss you! I would love to live on the coast, I am happy for you. I can see you living there. We will have to do a S&B before you go. love Stacey
ReplyDeleteWell - another adventure begins :) Moving's a pain but you've done it before and at least this time it will be because you WANT to not because the house has no heat or water, the rent's increased etc. I wish you and John only the best.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you and John, Ev! I sure hope you keep up your blog no matter what you end up doing!
ReplyDeleteIt will be fun to hear about the adventures with Molly's Reach and what fun to be back at the Beachcombers site!!
Take good care and keep us posted.
Awesome opportunity! Maybe Gibsons could use a yarn shop...
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
Congrats on your upcoming move. It's going to be tough to have to look at that view every day but I'm sure you'll make the best of it. lol.
