We left Asheville by car on Tuesday 7 January and arrived at our cottage in Le Bic, Quebec Province, two days later. The total driving time was about 25 hours through the mostly snow-covered landscapes of North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New York, and Quebec Province.
Our friendly neighbors made our arrival easy - Gaston cleared the driveway of snow and Denys turned up the convection heaters in the house prior to our arrival.
Our first day in Le Bic was sunny and clear but chilly, with a high of about 12 F. But then, a heat-wave of sorts appeared, warming to 35 F on Saturday. Sunday was back to more normal temperatures, reaching a high of 12 F and a low of 5 F.
Below are photos from our first couple of days in Quebec.
