but it has been unavoidable. We have been spending a lot of time in Ottawa interviewing for jobs, meeting old friends, and most time-consumingly, buying a house. We finally succeeded - after two other abortive attempts - and we’re moving to the mighty Capital City at the end of June. More details to come.
For those who are interested, this is the new place:

swank! where? How old? Got a yard for Scooby and Jordy?
Is it just me, or did there used to be a balcony where that door-like window is? As transplanted quebecers you now have to put one up…show some solidarity with the folks back home…
thanks AJ.
I don’t think it was a balcony but I can’t be sure at this point.
The house is in New Edinburgh, which is a very central old neighbourhood located between the Rideau River and Rockliffe. The place is about 4 blocks from the PM’s residence. I’ll post it if I see him walk over to Rideau Hall to drop an election writ.
There is a great yard for the dogs - the lot is 155′ deep, so even with a garage that gives on the back lane, there’s at least 90′x 22′ for dog running. And an off-leash dog park about a block away along the river.
We’re super happy.
Hey, congrats! Nice place ya got there. Hey, doesn’t it kinda look like the place you’re leaving?
Congratulations! It looks super, even if it’s WAY too far away! Really, though, we’re very happy for you.
O Yippee! When do you guys get to move in? It looks lovely and it sure is a wonderful neighbourhood. Go forth and be happy. Krista
