We had a good day today.

Kids can run around the yard with the dogs.

We watched some movies had a great meal.

Tomorrow we will can vegetables.

I want the kids to know how.

Memories .

They will be safe.

I thank their GGrandparents for having their bio Grandmother in Canada.
The GGrandfather was a Canadian.

All is set.

Air tickets.

The kids are excited.

They have a lot of family in Canada.

Your time together is so important and they can run and play with the pups.

Memories are good.

They will be safer in Canada than here right now.

Hugs to you and yours.

I have good memories with my Grandparents canning.

It was fun for me.

It is a good skill.

Growing and picking vegetables I really enjoyed it

We are all staying home now.

We will stay negative.

We have plenty of everything.

Mostly to Toronto, Calgary, and Montreal. I love going up there. The only bad part is coming home, when you have to 'pre-clear' customs at the airport. That can take 30 minutes or three hours.

Canadians are the nicest people. I think they are the closest to Americans you can find, so assimilating there should be the easiest.

My sense is their politics aren't as rabid as they are here. I find that as a good thing, but know that may be not a good thing for some.

Go to Quebec City. It's a beautiful place. You'll feel as though you're in Europe!

We do plan to visit.

My passport is up to date.

Nobody tells you about Grandchildren.

Damn the relationship is so very special.

Vancouver is pretty damn awesome!

Go visit as much as you can. I never went there until my 40s. And I regret not going before.

I bet your family will love living there…except maybe the winter. LOL. It does get chilly. LOL.

One thing they’ve taught me that’s very practical…16 degrees Celsius = 61 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s come in handy a thousand times!

Planning on it.

Booster shots are coming.

The kids do have a Texas accent but they will adjust well

We will go and visit.
