Hi,

I am a new member of this community, so if I am posting this in the wrong place, please direct me to the right place! I have seen communities in other fandoms, popstoryfinders for example, which exist to help find that story that you can't quite put your finger on. I don't know if due South has a similar community.
The story I am looking for is one that I read recently, and I know that I started with the crack_van recs, but I then branched off to read everything on the site of several of the authors. This is an enormous number of stories, so wading back through it is taking considerable time. At any rate, here is what I remember.

It was a Fraser/RayK story, which takes place post-CotW, in Northern Canada, where Ray makes arrangements to buy a local establishment, thus helping his immigration to Canada. I want to say that it's a hardware store that Ray buys, but I couldn't swear to it. I have read so many good, long stories recently. Obviously, this isn't much to go on, but if anyone knows which story I am talking about, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,

kifty

I don't know if there's an lj community, but there's a yahoo group that's been very helpful -- http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/DSstoryfinders

Lost story

It's not buying a hardware store, but the description put me in mind of the Stony Creek series by Shedoc. In it, Ray takes over the mechanic/handyman business in the title hamlet.

Thanks! I'll check that out... And if it's not the same story, then now I have new fic to read. New fic = a good thing. :-)
