Houses, strip malls and warehouses are being built at a furious pace here and in Alberta. There are signs the demand may be leveling out  but that is probably a good thing. A lot of it here on the wet coast is immigrants from Asia with a lot of money.

In Vancouver the first time I had wondered if the plane had not taken a wrong turn. ;D

Corley,

Our Township supervisor is up in arms about it.  She is planning on testifying at the public hearing at the capital against it.  She said that this has come up before during the Rep.governors but is really afraid the Dem governor will push it through.  Get this our Supervisor is a Dem but really is disliking our current Gov. ???I guess there is hope for everyone. :)

Yep!  As long as we live and breathe, there is hope.  I don't have any morbid predictions about the economy, where real estate is concerned.  In a "free" society, we have the right to pursue wealth, but we also have the right to fail.  A lot of folks will probably take the fall.  Some of them will bounce back, and some won't.  Such is life.  It will be hard for some folks to move from the McMansion back to the trailer park, but 3 hots and a cot is better than a park bench with a newspaper for a blanket.  It was probably hard for Bernie Ebbers to go from being a billionaire to being a penniless prisoner, too. :D :D :D

I don't have much, but I'm trying to be careful to not lose it, while trying to move forward.  If I did lose it all though, I think I could live in(under) that shack that Jim showed, and find a way to be happy.   :)

  Well, DanGit. I just hafta completely agree with ole DanG. That might be the second or 3rd time in 6 years thereabouts.  ::) ;) ;) :D :D :D :D

  If the Rice Paddies and severe Deserts are good enough for our troops to live in, that's good enough for ANYBODY, for startin over or whatever. Anything would be a step up.

Why, Thank You Harold!  I know that must have been painful for you.

I find myself agreeing with each of you often but the both of you at the same? Time this is scary! :D
