We’re now at the end of Week 17. At the end of Week 16, I flew out to see the Mountie to hear about his divisional assignment. Division means (loosely) which province we’re moving to. In the next few weeks, we’ll find out his detachment (city). The RCMP really likes to keep us on a need to know basis, it seems!

It turns out, we’re heading to E Division (British Columbia). When my Mountie told me, it was hard to know how to react. We knew we would have to move, but this still means we’re leaving our life in Ontario. We were happy to get B.C., but we’re still sad to leave. Depot is turning out to be more of an emotional experience than I thought.

The upside is that it’s starting to feel like the end of training will come; it feels a lot more real now. And, now I have a zillion things to do, which is keeping me busy. This will be our third cross-country move – am I good at it yet?
