We'll do it again next year for sure!<br /><br />@Carla - I admit to a wee bit of craziness lol - but it was a blast!<br /><br />@Johanna - I know you and Dave would absolutely LOVE it! Check out www.ontarioparks.com. We're definitely doing it again next year! Hugs!<br /><br />@Susanna - oh it was SOOOO much fun!<br /><br />@Lisa - thanks, more pictures will be coming of Day 2 & 3<br /><br />@Laura - but you DO have a sense of adventure:) I TRY to enjoy all kinds of weather, emphasis on TRY!<br /><br />@jpkittie - being unplugged was great - we couldn't even get a cell phone signal - really helped us connect with each other.<br /><br />@The Witch - yes the weather changed by 25 degrees from the first day to the third - CRAZY! We adapted really well, I thought!<br /><br />@Kendra - yes I will explain more about vision boards in a future post and show pictures too; thanks for the Island hug - we are really missing HOME but the time is flying by! Hugs!<br /><br />@Marguerite - no yurts on PEI I don't think, but I know there is on Cape Breton; perhaps Michael and I will have one on our property someday - we've been talking about it!<br /><br />@NLA - thanks!and yes I will be sharing my vision board soon:)Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02803104035204416080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5893269455295692105.post-84986701332109300912012-01-07T12:27:27.400-05:002012-01-07T12:27:27.400-05:00Well, Merry XXX-mas to you guys! ;) Sounds like a ...Well, Merry XXX-mas to you guys! ;) Sounds like a lot of fun and definitely not something everyone would do.

The weather you guys experienced really was all over the board, but now you know you can also stay warm when it drops down to -18.<br />It was really interesting to see how these yurts where going to look compared to other pictures I have seem of them.<br />I'm so glad you and Michael had a great time.The Witchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02021866057255311124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5893269455295692105.post-8394015421033615582012-01-07T07:24:15.197-05:002012-01-07T07:24:15.197-05:00HOW FUN!!!!
