Generally, in Montréal, this is garden planting weekend. BUT, we have been getting the rain leftover from the New England recent rainfalls. So, no planting for me... That leaves me with a very boring weekend ahead of me. But I will survive with books to read and a couple of warm blankets and pillows, and a pot of hot coffee. I guess there is only thing missing in that picture, isn't it. LOL
He is Canadian, so he must be talking about this weekend's holiday. In ROC (Rest of Canada), it is called the Queen's birthday holiday. Here in Québec, we now celebrate Patriots' Day (our Patriots *DeLorimier, Papineau, Chénier, etc.* were rebels way back during the time of the colony). BTW, some of them were sent to do time in the penitentiary colonies of Australia!!! So, yes, Americans get their holiday next weekend. Canadians get it this weekend. But anyone is welcome to celebrate an extra holiday with us, no problem.
Ah.............Thanks for sharing your holiday! And those passports back in '79. When I become president, well my first order of busness was to, well mug Canada, all that water, timber,& good fishing. If I do indeed acheive high office, your country will be left alone for your kindness!!!!! Now Mexico............ Another matter, I think they have oil?? Right? Be Well, JR
I will have a long weekend because May 25 is ascension day in Europe, so with an extra vacation day it makes a 4 day weekend!!!! I will visit my grandma in Holland...(she is 92 years old)
Well, one thing for sure is that I won't do it this weekend. First, it doesn't seem like it will be the end of the world soon and secundo, with all that rain, no plane can even take off the ground.
BTW, I sure can't jump out of a non operating airplane!!! And I will need a pilot to fly the plane; any volunteers?
