Thirteen Places TC has lived Toronto, Canada--I lived there twice. My sister and brother were both born there. Brampton, Ontario--I was born here. Vanastra, Ontario--I lived there for several years. It is a small town made from an old air force base. It was a fun place to be as a kid. We had lots of freedom to run around and play. Thompson, Manitoba--I lived there three times. The shortest time we lived there, my father moved us there from Ontario and he was working in a small town two hours away. We rented an apartment, moved in, went to school and then two weeks later, he moved us to the town he was working in. Snow Lake, Manitoba--Beautiful little town. This is where we moved after our two weeks in Manitoba. After this we moved back to Thompson again for about a year. Norris Point, Newfoundland--While we were living in Thompson, my mother developed a serious heart condition. After several major heart attacks she thought she was going to die and wanted to move home to die. So we moved to Newfoundland. Corner Brook, Newfoundland--I lived here twice. First with two roommates before moving away for work. Second, I moved here with my brother to continue my education at the age of 27 years old. Deer Lake, Newfoundland--First place I ever lived completely alone. Very nice place, my only reason for moving is to go back to school after discovering it is way to0 hard to support yourself at a minimum wage job. One of the famous sights as you drive into town is a big moose outside a restaurant. Sydney, Nova Scotia--Lived here for several months with my brother before I got work and moved away. Halifax, Nova Scotia--Lived here twice. Love Halifax, the only problem I really have is that all my family is so far away when I live there. St. John's, Newfoundland--Love St. John's. Lived there twice. My daughter was born in St. John's and it is where I currently live. Gander, Newfoundland--Beautiful little town. My best friend still lives there. Left because of lack of work. Jefferies, Newfoundland--Beautiful fishing town where my MIL lives. Also known as the "Ass End Of Nowhere". I loved it there. I moved because of the inconvenience of everything being so far away, the lack of work and for Prince Charming to finish his education.

Wow, that is a lot of places! And to think, I've never lived outside of Columbus. :-)
ReplyDeleteMy 13 are up!
Those are alot of places to have lived! I would really love to see Newfoundland, it looks like a really pretty place!
ReplyDeleteSome of those places are really pretty! Can I do thursday thirteen??
ReplyDeleteGreat list and great pictures! The moose really did it for me. Our family estate is up in New Hampshire (few short miles from Canada)
ReplyDeleteI keep teasing DH saying Moose's don't exist. They are as mystical as unicorns because I have never, ever seen one. (besides in pictures.) I hear they are dumb animals but they must know when I am in town because they hide from me.
Have a great Thursday. -Margie
you've moved around a lot - as have I! I lived 13 different places in my 20s!
ReplyDeleteWOW! You've lived around some cool places. We've moved and lived all over the US. Fun at times, but it gets tiring. Especially with kids to drag around, too. ;)
ReplyDeleteWOW! I've only lived in 3 places. And the photos were great!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Thursday!
Some of these look quite spectacular. Thanks for visiting.
ReplyDeleteThose are some gorgeous places you've lived. I really like the places by the lake. So pretty and peaceful. Thanks for visiting, and Happy Thursday!

ReplyDeleteAww, I loved seeing these pictures and reading about places that aren't familiar to me -- except for Gander...I read about that place in the book "The Day the World Came to Town." Highly recommend it, too. ;)

ReplyDeleteHave a great Thursday.
I've only ever been to Toronto (3 months), but some of those other places look incredible; seeing those photos makes me want to pack up and go back now!
ReplyDeleteWow! I've never lived anywhere else but here.
