Their home was lovely and quite close to a wonderful little neighborhood coffee house. Vancouver seems very metropolitan but in a quaint sort of way, if that makes any sense. I think it's a beautiful city and have many times thought of moving there.imquilternityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08960121584050010339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-8927235240035555492012-03-03T18:08:03.206-08:002012-03-03T18:08:03.206-08:00I've enjoyed your pictures of Vancouver.

We had free plane tickets for as far as we could go on the continent so we went as far as we could go from down here in the SE.<br /><br />I am terrified of snakes and lived in fear all our days in Africa. People, including our kids, reported seeing them here and there around our house, etc. but God protected my eyes our entire time there until the last week when I stepped over a coiled snake while hanging clothes on the line. Of course we have plenty here in NC too!podsohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14880888514207597761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-83615582078802484232012-03-03T18:01:01.646-08:002012-03-03T18:01:01.646-08:00A beautiful city.

Then, when I began blogging and began to read more about Vancouver, I really became intrigued.<br /><br />You've told me more of the history of the city than I had known. Like any city, I'm sure that there are books and books to know. There is always this dichotomy in any community, large or small and including, dare I say it, the church. <br /><br />As for the homeless and mentally ill...saddest thing I've ever seen and it is way past time for someone to say that what is being done is not working. Too many people who won't take their medications wind up on the streets because their families can't help them. Then there's drug addiction. And the entire financial crisis...though Canada is doing much better than the US in this regard... Ackkk...it's a mess. Good thing we know the One Who is in charge.Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.com
