Montreal, Alergies, WWz and stuff

We heading to Montreal for the weekend on a little getaway. I've never done much up across the border and couldn't set up meeting any fellow bloggers so we walked.
A lot.
We put in about 30 miles over the weekend, it's an interesting city. 1.5 million people that seem to be very friendly, get along with each other and don't care about much. The crowds were very diverse and unlike the States, no one really cared who was what. There were also a lot of really nice old churches, something I really enjoy checking out.

 I'm a sucker for really nice stained glass. While none of this compared to the Florence, Italy churches, it was still nice to see.

On the way home we flew to Texas and then back up to Colorado Springs. That large 'cloud' is the Walsenburg area fire, 80,000 acres and 40,000 feet tall or so. My allergies had some relief while out of town, but were very debilitating once I landed and milled about for a few hours in the yard. I had to break down and see a doctor for some real medication and picked up some air purifiers for the house. I was able to sleep last night for a change, so the medication seems to be working.
The air purifiers, and I picked up 3 of them, are large and a little loud but they worked great last night when the smoke from the above pictured fire settled in. The wind blew it up fast and low, visibility in town was down to 1.5 miles but inside our house it was perfect.

While in Montreal we hit the cinema for some world war z action. Grocery store scene was pretty awesome, something I think about often if shtf happened. The movie was great, to us, I'll probably see it again this weekend to pick up on all the little things I missed. The popcorn isn't as good in Canada, but it's the small things that matter.

I have some work to do this week on my get home bag and load-out. I have a new thigh holster an g-code insert to piece together, either there isn't enough time or money. Isn't that how life works.
