Default Sucks being in Whitecourt

I'm feeling it bad. Being a reefer in Whitecourt is a lonely experience. No one else probably knows that you can do marine tanks. And getting anything has to be a weekend trip to Edmonton. Anyone out there willing to put stuff on the Greyhound for me?

Default answer to my prayers?

Now the chances / ease of this is going to depend on where you live. The bus depot is downtown. If you're actually willing to do this please PM me. This is what I got from Greyhound's website:

From: EDMONTON, AB
To: WHITECOURT, AB
<table>
<tr><td>Schedule</td><td>Departs</td><td>Arrives</td><td>Duration</td><td>Carrier</td><td>Frequency</td></tr>
<tr><td>0501</td><td>0:15</td><td>2:25</td><td>02:10</td><td>GLC</td><td>Daily</td></tr>
<tr><td>0401</td><td>8:00</td><td>10:15</td><td>02:15</td><td>GLC</td><td>Daily</td></tr>
<tr><td>0505</td><td>14:00</td><td>16:10</td><td>02:10</td><td>GLC</td><td>Daily</td></tr>
<tr><td>0103</td><td>19:00</td><td>21:35</td><td>02:35</td><td>GLC</td><td>Daily</td><td>
</table>

I'll PM you in the morning after I think it over more carefully. You could PM me with some of the fish/corals you want and from which lfs you want them from. That would help me figure out if it's do-able from my end. You sure you trust someone else to pick fish/corals/inverts for you?

I have 2 or 3 shipping boxes left from my seahorse orders, though they aren't very big.

TTYL.

Now you just have to talk to Ryland about getting you some Vancouver goods on his next trip up. I know he was going to get in touch with you next time he is heading up that way to do some service a Millard Western or ANC.

OMG, the possibility of another reefer in Whitecourt. Let me check if I'm still on the same planet! If this fellow is even remotely interested in bringing stuff ask him to post or PM me.

How far from Whitecourt to Edmonton? I live in Drayton Valley and have the same problem. It's over an hour to Big Al's or AI. It's nice to get out of town once and a while though.

It's hour and a half to the city limits. Pretty much 2 hours to get anywhere useful in Edm.

About an hour to Drayton. If I or somebody I know is going and you need something I would be happy to help out.
