Default Time to go back... UP!

Yep... after 9 weeks of Florida sunshine it's time to go back in Quebec in the snow
Rode a lot this year but did not buy much because of the "OUCH" exchange rate.
Hope some of you took advantage of the exchange rate this year... heard that it will remain high until your next elections.

I'm leaving next wednesday to get there by friday, expecting snow next week-end

Safe travels to you and stay warm! It's a sweltering 19 degrees here in PA, I can only imagine the temperature in Quebec.
