Victoria Tank tour
 
I could only go on a Sunday. But would be into it.

One_Divided 03-06-2003 07:33 AM

I will post a schedule and have maps made up when I have a confirm on what tanks we are seeing.. We should probably start the tour around 12..

Axial Corillite 03-07-2003 02:37 AM

Would there be any interest in a taking a tour of UVics aquatics facility?
I don’t know if there would be time that day but if there were I would be
more than happy to take everyone on a tour. We should have our new
$1.2m fresh water filter system on line by then.(very impressive).

BC_Grl 03-07-2003 02:46 AM

Plans changed! We are going to make the tour. We'll just go over to Vancouver afterwards :) Yeah!!

Nullig 03-07-2003 04:19 AM

I'd be interested in seeing the UVic facility.

Axial Corillite 03-15-2003 05:06 AM

Well I’m an idiot!! :oops: I completely forgot that we’ve rented a condo
On Washington for that weekend. I totally apologize, but I’m not
Going to be here to show anyone around. SORRY. Weekend after would be good. :wink:

BC_Grl 03-15-2003 05:36 AM

My sister called and said she did need me in Vancouver for Friday after all, so I have to change my plans (yet again) :roll:
Sorry about this everyone, but I will not be here for the tour. I will be in Vancouver.

SuperFudge 03-16-2003 04:19 PM

Well another one bites the dust. :oops:

I cannot go either...Mega-Overtime awaits. :cry:

One day, i will have a life.

christyf5 03-16-2003 05:07 PM

Aww Marc, that sucks. I was looking forward to seeing you. Maybe next time


Christy :)

sumpfinfishe 03-20-2003 12:24 PM

Hey Adam, just wondering if everything is still a go!

If so, could you provide some details, like ferry times, first stop, last stop etc... so we can arrange things on this side of the water too

cheers, Rich

One_Divided 03-20-2003 06:44 PM

Hey guys.. Sorry, I will have all the plans up within the next couple of days.. thanks...

christyf5 03-25-2003 03:17 PM

Adam,

We're waiting........... :eek:

sumpfinfishe 03-25-2003 03:34 PM

Adam- Saturday is getting pretty close now,
we all need to make plans here :exclaim:
What's going on man :question:

One_Divided 03-25-2003 06:45 PM

I am also waiting on people. For now, let's plan for everyone coming across on the 11am ferry from vancouver. Everyone should plan on taking the 5 or the 7 back.

I have also arranged a stop at Hillside Aquatics. The ower agreed to give us a %15 discount. She also said there is a shipment coming in this friday.


The First stop of the meeting will be at Brad Morgan's at 1:15 pm. I will post directions shortly.. Or Brad can post them if he sees this.

sumpfinfishe 03-26-2003 11:56 PM

I have to seats if anyone is interested in going-sorry shotgun's taken!

Reefmaster 03-27-2003 01:25 AM

could i bribe someone with a suitable vehicle to brink two buckets of salt from J&L - they would be prepaid but would need to be picked up.
let me know if this might work.
thanks

Aquattro 03-27-2003 03:34 AM

Here are directions to my house.

EmilyB 03-27-2003 06:04 AM

Can't wait !! :biggrin: A wee bit disappointed you don't have a IHOPS....but I'll get over it ... :lol:

Old Guy 03-27-2003 12:46 PM

There is an IHOP at Lougheed Mall. Very close to J&L Deb if you really need a fix. :lol:

EmilyB 03-27-2003 07:53 PM

Might be a little far from Victoria.......hmmmmmm :razz:

Christy did get me hooked by taking me to a couple IHOPS when I was in Vancouver though......for the life of me I can't figure out why they don't have one in Calgary. :confused:

sumpfinfishe 03-27-2003 10:44 PM

I guess you will just have to setlle with a few back med's then, eh Deb :mrgreen:

EmilyB 03-27-2003 11:21 PM

:idea:

:biggrin:

christyf5 03-27-2003 11:31 PM

Oh Em, I got a whole new place picked out :wink:

You just wait........ :biggrin:

Christy :)

One_Divided 03-28-2003 08:21 PM

So it looks like we're down to only 4 stops unfortunately. The order will be Brad's. Hillside Aquatics, Shanes and then my place. Here are some step by step directions. I am able to drive people from brad's to the other locations. So we may not even need these.

1:15 at Brad's. Leave around 2

From Brad's turn right off of Lake Hill on to Borden.
Go straight passed Mackenzie on Borden till you get to a stop sign on the end. Turn right
Turn Left on to Quadra at the light.
Follow Quadra till you hit Hillside ave.
Turn left on Hillside.
The address is 1393 Hillside.

Leave Hillside Aqutics by 2:45

Right on to Hillside.
Follow hillside till it turns in to Landsdowne
Turn left on to Cadboro Bay rd.
Follow Cadboro Bay and look carefully to the right till you see a side street called Killarney.
Turn right on Killarney.
House number is 2640 Killarney.

Leave Shane's by 3:30

Go Back to Cadboro Bay and turn left
Turn Right on Landsdowne
Turn Left on Foul Bay
Follow Foul Bay and take the first left after Oak Bay ave on to Granite st.
Follow Granite 2 blocks to Victoria ave.
My house is 1270 Victoria ave. (corner of Victoria and Brighton).
Come around the side gate (on brighton) and to the basement door.

We will leave my place and try to get everyone from the mianland on the 5pm.


Hope this works for everyone..


-Adam

Reefmaster 03-28-2003 08:51 PM

adam
if you leave my place by 3:30 you won't get a look at your tank and get to the ferry in time to catch the 5. just food for thought.

One_Divided 03-28-2003 08:54 PM

heheh that's why I say BY 3:30.. I am hoping we can pull this all together a bit and leave you place by 3..

I will post a new time schedule, but for now we can try to follow this..

Troy F 03-28-2003 10:45 PM

Where's lunch in this schedule? I'm hungry just reading the schedule.

SuperFudge 03-28-2003 11:26 PM

Ya....im kinda hungry myself.

One_Divided 03-29-2003 07:17 AM

hmmm.. might be hard to fit in unless people want to take the 7 back... Ferry food?
