Back from the North for a Pit stop!

Hello all!

I have just returned from a quick get-together up north with my family, just south of Algonquin Provincial Park. There is 5-10cm of snow and 4 inches of inches of ice where I was! To my suprise, when we went to check on our families summer cabin (it is non-winterized with no power) about 50km south, the ice was a full inch thicker! Either way, it won’t be too long till its walkable! I am departing again for a yurting trip with a friend on the 28th! Oh, the christmas break is a wonderful time of year!

Merry Christmas!
