That's nice. Where exactly is vancoover.?

I have no idea...
on the other hand, Vancouver is the major Canadian city on the West
Coast. It's where the people of Seattle go for excitement.

I'm invited to visit up there (in the general area anyway) next
August,
which is a slow time for me.... not sure of the exact date yet. They
live on Camano Island.

Go for it...they must have a half decent boat living in that area.

Forgot to ask... seems like a nice place, but besides the state park and
homes is there anything else there?

I've never been there... closest was the ferry from Vancouver to
Vancouver
Island.
They do have a visitor site on the web.



There's a Chinatown, a lot of "shoppes," beautiful shoreline vistas,
interesting flora, mountains, ferries, according to my wife.

permanent members of my dumbfoch dumpster. As always, have a nice,
simple-minded day.


I thought Ms Plume was asking about that 'merican island between Seattle &
Vancouver........Camano Island.

Camano is mid-way between Seattle and Vancouver. An excellent spot to
be in August. You'll have to fight through the tourists in either
city but it'll be worth it. Camano would be an excellent home base.
