Archangel was the name of a teleplay that I wrote in school and promptly forgot after graduation. After I dug it up last fall I figured that even though the story wasn't great, the name was, so I decided too use it
And the rest, as they say, is history.

I live in the worst city in the lower mainland!
isn't it going to be a pain in the butt moving all your things twice and changing provinces twice in a matter of a few months. I'm just imagining income tax time and trying to fill it out for 3 different provinces in one year yikes!

Alberta isn't permanent so SK income tax is sufficent. I'll either be staying in a motel or campground. If the move to Vancouver is permenent, I'll buy new furniture as I need it.

camping and working that kind of job sounds pretty rough you must be hard on yourself
So when do you move out to Alberta?

The worst thing about finding a campground is too find one with a shower

And you'll really want one if your working physically hard all day!
I'd opt for a motel in your case your going to want a good bed for aching muscles as well! it's a little more wasteful of your hard earned money but it's important to take care of yourself too.
so you wont be doing this job for long then a couple of months?
I guess that means you'll be disappearing from here for that time as well, hard to be on the net if your camping!

Hard on myself really doesn't matter. I can quite easily sleep on the ground sans mattress ove extended periods of time. But too be on the safe side I'll probably be taking the van.
For me it would make more sense to pay 15-20 dollars per night than fifty.

I got caught up with daily living and living in the city makes it a little less safe. In Answer to your earlier question I live in Surrey it's a very rough little place not especially safe. If I lived in the country again I would there is something magical about doing that!
