Gordon and I started full timing in August of 2004. We spend five months in Ontario to keep our Ontario health benefits and one month elsewhere in Canada, this year we will spend about three weeks in Quebec visiting Quebec City and Montreal which isn't very far from our home base of Ottawa, Ontario. We are allowed six months in the US so we typically spend November through April in the southern part of the US. The first year we spent time in NC, FL, LA, TX and NM. Last winter we crossed Canada and went down the west coast of the US spending the winter in southern CA, AZ and NM then back through Ohio where my husband's children live to visit the grandchildren and on to Ontario. This year we're heading down the east coast stopping at NYC, NJ, Washington DC, Colonial Williamsburg and Savannah before heading to FL for the winter. If it is too cold in FL, we'll probably head west again.

Since this posting our plans changed. We left Ontario October 30th and went to Columbus, OH to see our new grandson then headed west through TN, AR and are now in Texas where we will be for most of the winter, probably on the Gulf Coast, then over to Florida for March before beginning our homeward trek in April.

Our motto is if you don't like your neighbour or the weather, you can move!
