We went with some of our cousins and their kids to a Christmas tree farm to chop down the perfect tree. When we arrived, the owner came out to direct us and asked us where we were from, when we answered BC, she smiled and waved us off on our adventure. As we came back from sliding on the frozen creek, making snow angels and finding the perfect tree, there was hot chocolate, apple cider and a bonfire for roasting marshmallows.
As I went in to get the drinks, the owner asked me why we came back to Ontario. I thought she phrased it strangely, but answered that we were here for Christmas. She gave this big sigh of relief and said that she thought we'd moved back here from BC and she couldn't understand why we would do that. Like it was the stupidest thing she'd ever heard...
A bit strange, no? But it got me thinking, especially since we just got news that one of our cousins and his family ARE moving back to this area from BC. The answer is quite simple. Family. Not such a shabby reason at all.

You betcha it's great here!
Still awake and watching Saturday Night Live...
Coffee and naps, not a good combo.
Sounds like you're warming up to great Ontario. We'd even let you cheer on the Canucks and MAYBE even cheer with you if you move back, too!
I know! I was up till 12:30 too. We'd move back for sure if you became Canuck fans!
