How true it is. Although living here on Vancouver Island I must say that we are a tad less worldly than they are on the mainland.

A lot of it fits Oregon too.....hmmmmm except its not Starbucks, its Dutch Brothers, Except in the Illionois valley where the coffee kiosk is Coyote.....Ya have to wonder.......
We never pay attention to the forcast for rain as it is roughly 7-8 month out of the year.....its the forecasts for sun that send us into a tailspin.....sigh
You didn't mention what gas is costing....
now there's a joke....
It is sad to hear that home prices are so high-I thought it was rough here.
dilu flying below the radar with the ducks-let the geese go north....
I love Vancouver (never seen V Island, Jane), but I'm a dyed-in-the-wool East-Coaster myself!
