There was a Timmie's in Saskatoon that closed. Gosh, must have been one of the originals on 22nd and Ave D. It was SO small! No drive through either. So...they closed it down and opened another one down the street at 22nd and G. Much larger, newer and with a drive thru. Maybe that's what they are going to do in P.A.?

Enjoy your visit! If I close my eyes...I can feel the wind on my face right now....

Have fun...I'll be heading up to Prince Albert, Sask. in 3 weeks...look out Timmies here we come. :dance: :dance:

I spent a day in PA. Couldn't believe the timmies in the mall closed,lol Have a good trip

Say WHAT!!!! :angry: My Mom lives minutes from the Mall and that is where we go for our Timmies......that must be the first Timmies in history to close......what is up with that?????? Oh well I'm sure there is another one close by.

There is til the Tiimies accros the street from the Mall! My understanding is that a lot of timmies in SK, AB are having a hard time stafffing them!! I think it was Stoon (might have been PA) that ALL staff had on the "IN TRAINING" sticker,lol

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

I'll look towards Lambert that day and say a prayer for you. Good luck to you.

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip

I definitely remember you guys!! :) But nope, we're not going to the same wedding, my cousin that is getting married is named Louise. Wouldn't that have been hysterical if we were going to the same one??? :)

Ok, it's 10:30pm and I should be packing and I'm procrastinating! :whistle:

I knew the odds were small. But that really would have been a riot. It's still kind of an odd coincidence. Have a good trip back home.
