Congratulations on your retirement!!! I hope I can retire soon as well! Altough I should probably finish my undergraduate degree first... ;P I heard there are a lot of cool places in the west of Canada (Alberta and B.C.) but I have never been. If I was retired, thoses would be the first places I'd visit (and Yukon, but that's just because I'm curious about what it looks like up there :P).

Anyways, considereing I've had my eye on Death Road to Canada for a little while now, I'm in for that. Thank you for the giveaway! +1 and enjoy your retirement! :D

ciemnogrodzianin: Enjoy traveling and long years in health and happiness for you and your family, 51nikopol!

Not in, but thanks for nice giveaway. I've played ABC Murders and it's really nice game with some unique gameplay solutions. It also nicely reproduce the atmosphere of Christie's writing. Liked it.

tinyE: Not in but can I ask what you did?
avatar
ciemnogrodzianin: Oh, man, tired of being alive? You'd better read this post carefully and do not ask again.
shit, I missed that. :P

tinyE: shit, I missed that. :P
That's ok. You're blind in one eye and can't see out of the other, remember? :)

51nikopol: I could tell you but I would have to shoot you! Nice video.
I was just curious to know what you;ve done for 32 years straight. I think I would have gone nuts by then. I know some of the supermarkets I worked in, we had meat cutters who had been doing that for 30-40 years. And still had all their fingers. :)

edit: Oh and not in.

51nikopol: my wife and I have a motor home and are looking to do some travelling. If you have any suggestions for places to travel, in North America, we would love to hear them.
The gardens in Ottawa the week in early autumn the leaves turn.
Then down toward the Great Lakes.
Through Allegheny and Susquhannock forests, on toward Lebanon, PA.
Double back to Gettysburg.
The Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia and North Carolina, later that autumn.
I-95 to A1A/US1 down to Miami and on to the Keys.
Back up I-75 to I-10 and out the panhandle into Lousiana. New Orleans. To Baton Rouge.
Straight through Texas into Mexico. Monterrey, if you feel like it. Follow the coast to the Yucatan.
Mayan ruins at Tulum; Playa del Carmen. Take a ferry to Cozumel and scuba dive.
Back via the Calakmul biosphere (unless you wanted to dip into Belize). Back to the US via Chiapas and Oaxaca.
Through Tuscon and Phoenix toward the Grand Canyon park and monument.
It's winter now. Vegas. Joshua Tree to LA, or Death Valley to Yosemite and SF. Take the 5 north.
Plumas, Mendocino, Six Rivers, whatever catches your fancy. Up to Seattle.
Olympic, Wenatchee. Homeward bound? Or more?
East again. Through Spokane and Coeur d'Alene, or further south, a tour if Idaho. Either way, on to Yellowstone.
Bighorn. 90 to South Dakota and reservation land. To Sioux Falls and on to Minneapolis.
Find your way home from there.

Not in.

You forgot Copper Harbor. :P
Where in CA are you starting from?

The film One Week (starring Canadian icon Josh Jackson) features him riding across CA on a motorcycle. Camping in the Canadian Rockies is amazing, though if you're traveling in an RV there are a few roads you don't want to go up. Canoeing in Algonquin Park, Ontario, or the Boundary Waters (MN).

Vancouver up to Whistler and Vancouver Island, BC. Butchart Gardens, tea time in Victoria, camping by the beach at Tofino.

In the east, Mtrl and QC are both neat cities, and the Reserve Cap-Tourmente and the hills northeast of QC or out to Gaspe.

Guess it depends on what you like and how far you want to go. Even just in Canada there's a lot to see/do.

Oh, and get some Timbits.
p.s. I'd like to be IN for retirement. Hope I win!
I have just realized your avatar is a mammoth and now I can't remember what I thought it was previous 100 times I've seen it. xD

Happy retirement, THE SERIOUS GAMING STARTS NOW! :D

Not in for the prizes, good luck to those that are.
Not in, but happy retirement!

Now that took some time to put together! We appreciate it.

Canadian + Travel is reminding me to finish reading Neil Peart's travel books. Already read 2/3 chapters, never got around to finished it.

In for Death Road to Canada.

51nikopol: After having worked for a little over 32 years I retired as of Friday the 9th of March. As is tradition in GOG when a life event takes place we do a giveaway. I have been very blessed with a great family, a great group of co-workers and friends. I have also enjoyed this community very much and have benefited from others generosity. To pay it forward I am doing a small giveaway.

The games are Death Road to Canada, because that is where I live and I thought it was a funny name for a game and Agatha Christie: The ABC Murders because I point and click.

I will run this contest probably until the end of this week. Just let me know what game, or both, that you are interested in. I will do that random draw thing and announce the winners. Just to avoid any scammers, to enter you must have joined before November of 2017 and not be on the list of scammers.

It is not a requirement to enter but my wife and I have a motor home and are looking to do some travelling. If you have any suggestions for places to travel, in North America, we would love to hear them.

Now excuse me I think there are kids on my lawn that I have to yell at.
Congratulations on your retirement!

As for the giveaway, I'm in for both Agatha Christie: The ABC Murders and Death Road to Canada

but the important thing is that you now have time to play all them videogames you've been hoarding like the rest of us :D I hope I retire one day too
A happy retirement to you.

In for:
Death Road to Canada

Thanks.

I can't be helpful with travel destinations in North America however.
