We have somehow already come to the middle of August, and over the past couple of weeks have been experiencing the full heat and humidity of a Canadian summer. Temperatures are often hovering around the low-30s Celsius (+-90 Fahrenheit) with humidity making it feel more like 40 (105). But it won’t be long now before the heat breaks, the days grow shorter, and we head into the fall season.
Last month we were able to get away from the city for a short vacation in rural Quebec, an experience we very much enjoyed. Though my roots are in Quebec, with both my parents having been born there, I rarely visit La Belle Province. It was great to explore some of its northern reaches and even to be able to visit an aunt and uncle I have not seen for several years. Ryn (Nick’s fiancée) was joined us for the vacation and while she ran into some issues at the border, they eventually relented and let her across (though with the stipulation that she remain out of public places for 14 days).
