The Journey Back to the Cold


It is Sat. the 8th, a sad day, very, very sad....  We have to head back home to Canada and the cold, snowy weather....  We are leaving 80+ temperatures for -20 temps.  I think we are crazy but it is Christmas coming up and it will be nice to home for that.  So we have cleaned up the boat and packed up the cats and are heading North but first we are going to see a new dingy for the boat.  So with that in mind we headed for St Petersburg, a little out of our way but so worth it in the end.  Don found the right on for the boat and it was a showroom model so he got it at a great price. 

It is us two nites and three full days drive to get home, and from the west coast of Florida added quite a few more hours than normal.  We had great weather for driving and did not encounter any problems along the way or at the border.  We arrived home late on the 10th to snow and very cold weather.  After we unloaded the car and the cats Don made a huge fire in the fireplace and I poured the wine.  It is nice to be home again.  Being away so long make one appreciate your home even more....

Well our blog entries will be very sporadic to almost none existent till we are back on the boat but I will try to keep everyone informed.....
