I wish some family would come visit me, we have only had 1 Canadian visitor so far. A lady we rented from while in Canada and became good friends, but she is retired. All the rest are working and " have no time & no money? " That's about life in Canada any more for the vast majority.
I'm suprised it's brown in your area! We are in a scorched earth mode in Ocu. LOL
Maybe I'll do a summer/winter contrast post today?
Cheers
