Re: Fly-in Tim Horton's

I am a big Tim Hortons fan, but afraid the trip to have that coffee might make a $100 hamburger look cheap. Our local Tim Hortons looks to be a gold mine, constant flow of people in there day and night, don't know why they have not moved more franchises into the States.

That's a real beauty! For you Americans, Tim Hortans is a Canadian culture. I got a fishing camp half way there from Winnipeg - maybe have to strap on the aux. fuel tanks and make the trip for a large DD :D

Re: Fly-in Tim Horton's

When they were filming the "White Fang" movie here there were so many Kalifornians that just couldn't live without their Mickey D fix that they chartered a plane from Juneau and flew up a shitload of burgers & fries. After that the school kids did it again a few times for a fund raiser. Funny the things we just can't live without sometimes.

Ya, and that explains why many North Americans have fat arses and clogged arteries.
