We're fixin' to start to get ready to begin to be anxious to get back to TV!
We're finding it extremely warm this year in Ontario, Canada. Usually we get a couple of heat waves, this year it's been hot all summer. (To us hot is high 80s). I was told that the Farmers Almanac says this is the beginning of a 25 year heat wave/drought. I hope that's not true.

We have a Mediterranean cruise planned for two weeks in September. When we return, we'll start getting organized to head south to The Bubble. The Fall is my favourite time of the year. We get to celebrate two Thanksgivings, the Canadian one in October and the US one in November. We get so excited when we're packing the car and getting ready for our 26 hour trek south. We appreciate TV so much because to us, it is a new and wonderful experience every Fall.

I can hardly wait to see my Village friends and neighbours again. I miss them so much. I'm getting excited just writing this post. We feel so blessed that we are able to spend winters in TV. And TOTV is a wonderful way to stay in touch with what is happening when we're away.
