We have friends from Alberta that for the last 20 years come to BC for their summer vacation. Every year they complain about the prices of things in BC as they sit on nice warm summers day on the beach by the lake side sipping on a wobbly pop.
Oh did I mention that they have been coming back each and every year for 20 years?
It's like when I hear people complain about the price of fuel. I will alsways say, then stay home if it bothers you.
Nothing is free in the world, and if people want to find a reason to complain about something they will.
We live with in 30 minutes of the Wash State Boarder, and the costs savings of shopping in the US are few and far between. Yup some things are more exspecive and we can find deals but you really have to look, and we still go down to Spokane for a get away Weekend that usually turns into my DW shopping trip....:S
Last words for thought :
My Couisn lives down by Vancouver Wash, usually come up once a year for a visit. They love the small crowds the beautify of the mountains, lakes, fishing in the creeks and the money they save when they come north of 49.
Every time they go home she say as she hugs me good bye as they leave the campground. Don't worry we aren't going to tell anyone about this place. We would hate more people showing up!
That's what her mom and dad used to say to my mom and dad when they came up for vacations when I was a kid many many years ago.
So to everyone that's telling people to come visit....
......Shush...... :B
Soup.
