What a better way to spend the days off before New Year's eve than away from the city and surrounded by snow? If you said surrounded by beaches, than I don't think that you and I are on the same page at the moment. Nonetheless, we took a drive 90 minutes north of Montreal to spend time with family. Far away from the big city filled, clean air and huge mounds of snow ideal for snow-shoeing, tobogganing and skiing. All and all a very relaxing time. Happy new year!

Snowbound Cottage |
Snow covered trees |
These are very pretty.
ReplyDeleteI see now how old I'm getting, because my first reaction was "That must be very cold."
My second reaction was "Now I have to pee."
Isn't it funny that you only go to pee every two three hours but after a one hour drive I have to run in as soon as the car stops.
DeleteIt's not the ha ha funny, but the pee in my pants funny.
Though I live in a rural setting, spots like this are really nice. In my trips to Canada and Quebec, I've never gone above Montreal, though I really want to. Images like this make me want to explore for sure.
ReplyDeleteThere are a whole mess of mountains to the north and north east of Montreal worth checking out for the skiing or just for the view.
