As the entirety of the prairies is now under an extreme cold warning. I will openly admit to scheming my way to warmer weather. Now when romanizing for the ideal retreat. Arizona would satisfy that itch. It's within driving distance and with plenty of beautiful public land it would be easy to keep my distance. However escaping to the American desert is off the table. The option to drive overland remains unavailable. I certainly miss my family and friends who are stateside. But with the border remaining closed to non-essential travel. The chance of an international crossing continues to be a daily fantasy. Looking back north towards Canada, there is one region that holds promise for above zero temperatures. Vancouver Island, British Columbia.
