Actually, there is a guy who flies his MASSIVE bi-wing cargo plane in from the Yukon where I understand he lives. No information on his name though.

Ya, that's got to count for something. Did you enjoy it? or Reproduce the drink immediately upon having the toe touch your lips?

Well, if you ever hear of the name, please pass it on, I would love to connect with anyone from here that goes.

Thanks

Yeah, I consider myself a Yukoner, although I'm not living there at the moment. There are at least 3 others coming with me, also from the Yukon, also not currently living there.

It's Watson Lake you are thinking of. The Signpost Forest.

We're all from Whitehorse, and living down on Vancouver island right now. I've been gone for about 18 months I think, but i do like it up there, and will probably end up back there in a few years.

This is the first burn for all of us, we'll be doing a road trip down.

Have you been before? or know of any others from there going?

This will be my 4th burn. I go with my partner and son each year. My boy is 6 now. I have met one other person from here that has gone a few times in the past and in 06 a friend of mine came with us but he hasn't returned since. We always fly down to San Fran or Vegas, rent an RV. Undoubtedly, I'm sure it will blow your mind. Feel free to stop by kidsville, just ask for the Yukoners and say hi. I work as a nurse up here with Kwanlin Dun First Nation. Lived here for about 8 years now. You guys in school down there or working?


Cheers
