this wasn't meant to be insulting... after all, it's just a bad exchange rate
that bites our neighbors from the north in the ***. actually, I love Canada
and might even consider moving to the left coast if I could make a living.
Vancouver, Vancouver Island, and BC in general are gorgeous. does get cold
though... I might have to adjust to that. maybe live there in the summer and
here in the winter.
have spoken to a couple of folks in the area about doing vanagon trades... they
come here and use ours, we go there and use theirs for a week or two. might be
workable if we get to know and trust each other.
