Blame it on the Rain

Well the May Long is upon us. 

There are 3 things that will always happen on the may long weekend well at least they have been my experience over the last few years.

1.  It will be cold, we have not yet hit our balmy summer weather in Winnipeg, and we don’t usually until after the long weekend.  It’s ok during the days, but at night…cold

2.  It will rain.  Whether it is a few showers here or there, or a downpour that last for hours it will rain.

3.  Despite these 2 undeniable facts, hundreds of crazy Winnipeggers will head out of the city to go camping.  I am one of these crazy people, although I do not “rough it” I will be counted among the crazy. 

I’m looking forward to it, last year was my first year going and I had a blast…and it was so relaxing.  This year they are actually calling for good weather (knock on wood).  No matter what happens though, no matter what the weather.  I know I will have a good time because I will be away from everyday life, relaxing and chilling with some of the people I love.

So here’s to may long, thank you Queen Victoria…without you I’d have to go to work on Monday.
