Autumn is kicking in, labour day weekend (this weekend) is commonly known to signify the end of summer, and quite appropriately the weather has turned and it's now 16C instead of 32C. Apparently "the fall" in Ontario is short (6 weeks or so) and is quite spectacular, before descending into the sub zero temperatures that characterize winter. I've already experienced some winter conditions last Christmas (-16C) but it can go colder and I didn't experience a massive snow storm. On the shopping list in the next 2 months will be some winter clothes, snow tires and rust proofing for the car. Talking of cars, 1 month later the Altima has travelled 3000km and it's going strong. It still puts a smile on my face when it costs $60 to fill up instead of £70-80 which is what it would cost in England. There are some things I miss about England (my family, friends, the music scene, the sea) and some things I do not. The cost of living is one of those things!
Katelynn is starting her new job next week as a music teacher in Kitchener, she's going to be great. My job is getting busy too, which in a strange way makes me happy, I would rather be busy than struggling to find things to do.
I've got another music job coming up, this time playing at a worship event in London, Ontario. It will be my first 'gig' since I left Bosh, I'm looking forward to it.
