Canadian dollar
After several years of heading down to the USA for a couple of months in the late winter, we have more or less decided we will not do it this year due to the poor exchange rate of the Canadian dollar....

I hate hearing if I cut back on a cup of coffee every day for 20 years I'll save lots of money. I don't pinch my pennies, I watch my dollars.
I'll stay home one year so I don't have to pinch pennies the next time I go.
How many CND Snowbirds are just sitting there. No restaurants, no shopping, no golfing, just pinching pennies. Wooppee lot's of fun that.
Even if the dollar stays low next year. When I do go I won't be holding back, I'll be spending the dollars I saved this year.
As luck would have it this is the mildest Ottawa Winter in years :)
It is a very strange winter here on St. Joseph Island. It was -1C yesterday with fog. It is -18C this morning and overcast with sun predicted this afternoon and +1 with showers the next couple of days and back to very cold the first of next week. Far ways from the tough winter they here the last couple of years. Would seem like we picked a good year to stay home.
