Too rural for me. I’d have to go with a small city.

Housing in Montreal is surprisingly affordable. I’d probably just stick with Ontario. Just not Toronto because expensive.

And this....

Cold, dark and just enough snow to make things slippery. But better than your neck of the woods.  At least as long as i don't slip and hurt something. At least it's almost the weekend.

I finished watching The Irishman which was good - it’s Scorsese so very well done - but I wasn’t enthralled by the story.  I’m happy I chose to watch it from home over two evenings rather than going to the movies. Read more

While they’re good when it’s been snowy, I find them awkward when it’s mostly clear with only intermittent patches of very thin ice on the sidewalk. Which is how it was as we didn’t get much snow, just a thin film of freezing rain that iced up,… Read more

No, these are different than the Soho one. The latest Propublica article is about Trump Tower. The prior one was a about 40 Wall Street and the Trump International Hotel and Tower uptown (...there are so many I had to check -https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-inc-podcast-never-before-seen-trump-tax-documents-show… Read more
