I went one year thinking maybe it's better than it actually sounds (some strung up lights on a cold night in December). It ended up being exactly how it sounded.

Yeah, too early.

Other dates that went well (this time of year)... Cross-country skiing, tobogganing, skating (olympic oval might have public skate time Thursdays), I think some of the haunted houses should be open by now (screamfest etc).
Screamfest (www.screamfest.ca) is on now but only Friday/Saturday/Sunday. The week of Halloween it's open Monday Tuesday Wednesday as well. Would be a good idea on that week, probably a lot more people.

The skating thing would be a solid idea (it occurred to me, believe me) if I didn't have a blown ACL.

It'll take 2 hours to get to and perhaps 1.5 hours to get back to your car. A slight bush whack through a heavily overgrown trail will be necessary. It will be unpleasant and freezing. Chicks dig that, right?
This sounds pretty awesome on a weekend, though again, later on down the road. Not as much of a date as a weekend trip thing to KC. Actually it sounds like a pretty awesome idea regardless of who you're going with.

Are you the women in the relationship?

So the real question then is; why do you go every year?

I don't know if this is a serious question or you're poking fun, but no.
