Blaine Baby!

Well, the boat is eating me outta house and home! I need to have her hauled outta the water, replace all the thru-hull fittings, marine head (toilet to everyone else), holding tank, outboard motor and bottom paint.........whew, that's enough! Needless to say, I've been looking for work. My need to get some cash flow lead me up to the Canadian border to a little town called Blaine ; http://images.google.com/images?q=blaine,wa&gbv=2&hl=en&start=20&sa=N&ndsp=20

and MAN, I think I'm in Love with the place! It only has 5000 people living there, is on the border and is located in the upper San Juan Islands http://www.travelsanjuan.com/#
, I applied for a job with a company called 'Nature's Path' (you will find their granola bars, cereal, etc in your local grocery store) and the lady working there was none other than the Mayor of Blaine........... how's that for a contact?

The bad part is I forgot my camera...... so, check it out yourselves and feel the envy!
I'll take some pic's shortly and show you some more of the nice places up here.
