Our Super Canadian Weekend

This weekend Forest and I had a super Canadian weekend.  On Saturday we started our day by going to Canadian Tire and buying our snow tires.  It is a law here that every car has snow tires for the winter.  If you don't buy them you end up paying a fine for 150.00 everytime you get a ticket.  We decided it was in our best interest and safety to get the tires.  Taxes here are outragous and the tires cost us twice what we spent the last time we bought tires in Iowa.  After the snow tires, we went to Mount Royal (the mountain) and walked around where we saw our first mounty!  I included the picture of the mounty but you can't really see him that well.  It was pretty exciting though.  Saturday night we celebrated Canadian Thanksgiving which was really fun.  Then yesterday, I said my first eh.

  1. That Mountie photo has a very Bigfoot-esque quality to it.
