steadily each day!

we had a snow storm here in Ontario and we went from almost all the snow melted to getting a foot of snow through the day.
I love going from standing in snow to standing in a desert within a few hours.

Highs 58 to 70. Yep. Definitely a Canadian heat wave My friend in Alberta
#@%$#!es about how scorching hot it is when the temperature peaks above a sizzling 73F. Meanwhile I'm in Texas and the temperature is 108 with 60%
humidity for the nth consecutive day.
All kidding aside, you guys are going to have a FANTASTIC time, and I wish I could be there living it up as well
