HELLO from Canada Eh!
:hi:

The weather is great up here! HOT even!

We have been driving around the lakes up here, taking lots of pics to post later. BEAUTIFUL!

Been to Tim Horton's (of course) and stopped at the coolest burger place up the 401(?) that i've ever seen on the way back from the airport.

Headed out for more sightseeing this morning then back to lounge by the pool this afternoon. My liver left me sometime last night in disgust but it will be back (it ALWAYS comes back). :D

Mrs Matcom keeps talking about 'bagging a Mountie' (whatever that means) but i'm not a hunter so she will just have to do that herself.

Well that's aboot it for now. Just wanted to say :hi:

:hug:

1. Um... You don't know what happened yet, do you?
About the Loungers getting together at your house and all... Partying... Um, just kidding, you guys have a nice time and don't worry, we'll get it cleaned up all nice before you get back, just like in Risky Business...

But Series!11! Hope you're having a great time! :-)

3. Woo-hoo!
Be sure to bring an at least partially functioning liver home with you! ;)

Have fun! And if you run into my parents up there, be sure to tell them I'm _still_ waiting for my mid-summer CARE package. x(

4. Yes, Matcom, it indeed gets hot in the summer here.

Are you in the Prairies? We do hot like no other part of Canada. Just survived a really intense heat wave, actually.

5. You probably had burgers at Weber's
on Highway 11 north of Orillia. The one with the railcars and the pedestrian overpass across the highway.

7. Are you sure Mrs Matcom wants to bag a Mountie?
She may have said "bang a Mountie". She is obviously a closet percussionist.

6. Don't forget the duty free shop.
A liter of vodka for twenty canadian dollars. . . is like fifty American cents. :)
