Only in Canada...

Remember how I said the roads were literally sheer ice?

I was not even close to kidding. When I pulled into the street we live on today, the kids up the street were playing road hockey and had to move out of my was as I drove by. They were wearing skates. They were honest-to-god skating up and down the street

Awesome! I've heard that Integras have really high resale value... Probably not so much when they're 15 years old, BUT - it's a vote of confidence. It should get you home, anyway :)

I want to skate in the streets! The other thing you'll probably only ever see in Canada - canoeing down flooded streets. I ♥ us!

We're actually hoping to get close to 3000$ for for our '93. It's right in the middle of the price range for that year, though we'll probably have to fight SGI (Saskatchewan Government Insurance) for every penny, and if they offer us less we're taking the 500$ sound system out.

That's why I was so scared of this '95 for only 1000$. I'm still kind of expecting the engine to just spontaneously combust or something, but everything seems on the level, so I dunno. I guess the guy just didn't realize the value behind them?

Hahah, love it! You should have taken a picture! That would have made the front page of the local paper, I bet. :p

Congrats on the decent car purchase! Here's to a trouble-free purchase this time around!

I wish I could have! But it was already after dark and the lighting on our street sucks. Not to mention my camera doesn't take good pictures in low light, and the flash works for maybe 10 feet.

Ugh, I will so definitely drink to that!

Wow, even when I lived in Edmonton we never wore skates playing road hockey. Ah...now that was a fond memory! One of our childhood friends was Paul Healey who played a few NHL seasons.
