Its time to pack things up, here in South Texas, say"bye" to friends in the Park and head for Home in Ontario Canada.We drive a small Toyota Matrix (36 miles/gal), and take 4 days to drive the 2068 miles. We love it here in Tx. where the Veggies and Fruit grow, and are harvested all winter. No snow to shovel, yoga every day, and a bike-trip every Friday, plus many other activities which are not available in Ontario. We as Canadian Citizens are only allowed 6 months out of country, because our Federal Health Plan is funded by those who live in Canada. But that's a small price to pay for such a comprehensive Health benefit.
Summer in Ontario is as fulfilling and as soul-satisfying as winter in Texas!
We often hear our friends saying," We have the Best of Both Worlds!"

LOL I know exactly how you feel LOL I live in Canada so I know how cold it is here lol. I just had a question about you living in the states actually. How long do you have to come back for every 6 months? My aunt and uncle are moving in July to south Carolina but my aunt is Canadian so she is wondering how long you have to come back to Canada for, she was told 3 days a year which seems a little short to me.
