I (Beth) am in Ontario for the first week of summer vacation. Being here reminds me of the following:
Three Cheers for Ontario!!! :)
1. The Weather: While everyone seems to complain about the heat and humidity here, I’m loving it! I really miss how nice it is to be able to sit outside, and go for a walk, even late into the evening while still wearing summer clothes and enjoying summer weather. Even when it’s cloudy and rainy, it’s still warm—and I LOVE it!!
2. The Lakes (and Cottages!): We have been so lucky over the years to have friends and family with cottages and boats, and to have friends who enjoy camping and canoe trips. There is nothing better than sitting out on the dock by the water, enjoying the sound of the waves lapping the shore, or even an occasional loon calling across the lake. Ahhh...I definitely miss those cottage weekends, and especially the canoeing trips. Glacier-fed lakes just aren’t the same!

Three Jeers for Ontario :(
1. The Traffic: Like the weather, when you live here, it doesn’t take long to get used to the busy highways. But after being away and coming back, the 400 series highways still seem pretty scary!
2. The Taxes: an extra 7% shouldn’t be that big of a deal, but it definitely makes me think twice about spending money here (maybe that’s a good thing?)...
3. No Mountains: ‘nuff said...
