Seeing we've less than two weeks remaining, I have allowed myself to start thinking about the logistics involved in our return to New Westminster. Today, I wrote an email to our Internet / TV guys at surfinternet.ca. I want our snowbird account to be reactivated before our arrival, so when we switch on the power to the apartment, everything comes back to life. It's been a long time since I asked a Google Mini any questions!
I also allowed myself to get excited about our new vehicle. A shiny, new Hyundai KONA Electric is waiting for me at a Coquitlam dealership. I wrote an email indicating when we will be back in the province and that I'd like to complete the purchase within a few days of arriving. I asked if there were any details about the process I should know.
On both situations, I received responses. The Internet will be on when we get there. On my other query, I was informed I could make the online application for British Columbia's Scrap-It program. I will be letting the old Ranger go. As we are buying an all-electric vehicle, a provincial incentive program will provide $6,000 cash to get the old gas vehicle off the road. This is in addition to the standard $5000 EV incentive. 6K is quite a bit more than the Ford is worth, so it is with little trepidation that I'll let them crush the pickup which has been so good to us for 23 years!
