Have to go up to Canada this week, has global warming solved this winter thing yet..

Have to trek back to the old country this week, and wondering if Global Warming has solved this whole winter thing or can I still wear shorts.

Hahaha well, you might want to save those shorts for the gym. The Toronto area hasn't exactly been warm for a while All I'll say is - I can't wait for Spring!

Going up for the Battle of Alberta.

The historic ongoing battle with my relatives. Cue the banjo music.

Calgary isn't a participant in this particular battle.

Just the infiltration and exfiltration point.

Hopefully I can get in and out before all the in-laws can find their way out of the hills.

You may want to avoid the weekend in Montreal. Alberta is good for Rolex purchases, save 10% compared to taxes here!
