Hi Diane
Hi Drea, story time.....come on, do tell.....

Okay... Dad worked at a gas station in Windsor either just before or just after he and Mom got married, so it would've been 1970..

These Americans drive up to get gas, and tell Dad they're going to Montreal for a picnic (*snerk* Please note that Windsor is 4 hours from TO, and Montreal is a good 6-7 hours more) and then go home. They ask him if they can do it and Dad says yes, and then tells them to "Be careful, because the Indians are on the warpath." Apparently they turned right around and headed back to the border!

 

[VintagePunk]

I don't know what's more ridiculous: that they believed your dad or wanted to go on a picnic 4 hours away in Montreal.

 

[VintagePunk]

Bye Dazz!

crazy-eyed young Bono!!!


Hiya GG, Diane!!

 

[greeneyedgirl]

Thats too funny! You gotta screw with the tourists heads, though, really. At least when you live in an area that gets FLOODED by tourists ... it's really a survival mechanism

Hi DG, GG!!!

I snuck away from here for a few minutes, but I'm back!

Do you mess with the Ferris State students' heads too?

I remeber in high school telling freshman that there was a pool underneath the floor in the gym. And they had to go to the Dungeon downstairs to get the key so they could turn the left sky hook on and use it to open the pool.

Here's my tourist-without-a-clue story:

I was in a wedding in Indiana, near Lafayette, around 1989. I wanted very much to visit a restaurant that Yankee player Don Mattingly owned in his hometown of Evansville, IN, and was planning on heading over there--until the bride's father told me it was about 4-5 hours away. I'd assumed that since it was in Indiana, it would be a short car ride away! I never did make it there, and the restaurant has been closed for years now.

 

[Sad_Girl]

Do you mess with the Ferris State students' heads too?

Well, I don't.... but some locals have been known to refer to them as 'Pinheads'

The university is kind of it's own little town inside of town, they're pretty safe

 

[greeneyedgirl]

Thats funny Drea.....
tourists are so wierd sometimes....

 

[VintagePunk]

*Mrs. Robinson*

 

[greeneyedgirl]

must head off to bed now.

[Drea]

These two need to be put in the caption thread and dealt with accordingly

 

[VintagePunk]

Night GG!!

 

[Diane L]

Goodnight, GG!

 

[CeeCee]

The closest dumb tourist storeis I could come up with is when people would come though on their way to DC hinking they were half an hour to 45 minutes from DC, when it takes me 2 and a half to 3 hours to get to DC. Or thinking they're 20 minutes from Virginia Beach, which is 3 hour away.

 

[daygloeyes2]

Night GG!

 

[VintagePunk]

I wanted ice cream SO badly...then I thought of running into B in chicago...so I got yogurt and a banana instead.

I'm having a strawberry yogurt now.

I so want an ice cream. I'm PMSing, so I reaallly crave it. Thank God the prozac keeps it somewhat under control.
