My first trip to Seattle was in April of 2016, when they were having record daily high temps of 90F. After summers in Toronto it felt more to me like maybe 75F. he locals were melting and complaining, while I was wearing long pants and long sleeved shirts, in perfect comfort.

For me it is less about temp and more about humidity. Here once it it starts getting humid in the summer I have a lot of trouble breathing and that makes the heat feel worse. If it is 90 and humid, which it usually is here if it's 90, forget it. Also I think something about the way we construct housing is different. In California, I never remember a home feeling stuff, especially at night. Part of that might be the dry air, and the cool air in the evening (I was pretty far south). But here once it starts heating up, bedrooms and other second floor rooms feel so suffocating to me. I love New England but I will say I could do with different construction methods or something because they are always stuffy and musty smelling in the summer months

That's what I was getting at. In summer the humidity, in Toronto, is terrible. You can add up to 8C in temp to the "humidex", from the actual temp. In Seattle I didn't feel the humidity at all.

I didn't realize it got so humid there

Random unrelated thing. For anyone doing genealogy for Germany in the 1600-1900s, Matricula Online has really expanded the number of churches they have records from.

The question they don't answer is if CC BY NC-ND 2.0 preculdes cropping of the images...

Look, if all inns are "inns between worlds," it's not special or interesting any more. I am confident you can make a stationary inn interesting.

Here In Québec we have like 1 and a half season: the rain and mosquitoes season between the first snow on October 1st and the last snow fall at then end of May.

That's a weird assessment of the weather in Québec. We have four seasons. Snow doesn't start until December. The last snowfall is in March or the beginning of April.

Sounds like you live in northern Quebec in Rouyn-Noranda or on the Côte-Nord.
