    Talking Tourist Season

    As we approach the start of the "season" here in one of the busiest spots in the upper midwest, I saw an appropriate bumper sticker today as I was running some errands.


    "If they call it "Tourist Season"

    Why can't we SHOOT them?
    Just kidding. If we could just get them to send their money and stay home though.................

    I couldn't handle living in the Dells. I was there once in the summer and will never go back. It was way to crazy. Plus it's in Wisconsin.

    Tourist Season

    One nice thing about the Seattle area is that our tourist season doesn't start until August and only lasts a month. For some reason the tourists don't seem to like rain. We do get the people going on cruise ships to Alaska but they only stay a day or less and with no wheels they are pretty much limited to the Pike's Place Market area downtown.

    Hey, easy now. I was just thumbing through my RCI timeshare trade book and thinking that Wisconsin Dells would be a nice place to visit this summer.

    Reminds me of a bumper sticker I saw in Florida that had a alligator and the words "Send more tourists...the last ones were delicious"

    Now this is really ironic. We have the exact same bumper stickers down here because our population increases about 25% during the winter months from all the retired snowbirds that winter down here.

    They went home last month and we noticed an immediate improvement. Less traffic, less waiting at restaurants, etc.

    People retire to St. Petersburg - their parents live in Bradenton.
