I should've had the salmon...

So, just an update regarding our day off yesterday. We drove up to Ottawa, stopped at Subway and split a turkey breast sub for lunch just as we got to the outskirts of the city...and it poured with rain while we were there.

Day off...road trip!

We both managed to get the day off today! So we're headed to Ottawa (two hour drive each way) for a small family get together for my mother's 75th birthday.

Different countries, different attitudes

We've been following a new blog...a couple who are on a two year trip through Central and South America in their Class C motorhome.

Just call us Grandma and Grandpa!

Yes, we are going to be grandparents next spring!

Sure miss our hikes!

It's the same old, same old going on this past week in one word...work!  We can feel the end in sight though, and the time really is flying by.  Neither one of us really minds our work, its different than working a "real" job because you know that it is only for 6-7 months and then we have five months off to travel, of course we are striving for being on the road fulltime again and I know that will happen sooner than we think, at least we sure hope so.  As I said we really don't mind doing the jobs that we do have so that makes things easier.

Our route south

We know it's still over two months until we head out, but last night we were discussing our route south.

Not much going on...

Well nothing too much has been happening in the last week and a half or so. Still busy with work though!

Mosquito control

This has been a bad year for mosquitoes at our particular campground. And if there's one thing that drives me nuts, it's mosquitoes! So I would normally be inside where it's comfortable, instead of outside with the bugs. However I think we have found a decent solution to the problem.

Day off today!

Well for me, anyhow. Ruth still has to work. The first Monday in August is a civic holiday in most parts of Canada with Quebec being the glaring exception.
