Hola friends! I thought I’d share what I’m doing in April in case anyone wants to hang. I’m also generally free if anyone is around Metro Vancouver or Whatcom/Skagit/Snohomish counties in Washington.

April 15 - Cars & Coffee at Porsche Langley
Usually a good event, free breakfast, lots of exotics and some other interesting vehicles.

Cars & Coffee last year

April 21 - SCCBC Race 1 at Mission Raceway in Mission
If you want to come out and volunteer as a marshal for some road racing, it is a pretty fun day. I know it’s far... but cheap gas!

SCCBC Mazda6 Pace Car & CX-3 Medical Car

April 22 - St. Georges Day British Motoring Show in Fort Langley
Come see my village! This is always the official start of spring for me.

Soooooo Fawncy

April 29 - Country Car Show, Aldergrove

It’s weird to me that Langley has a Porsche dealer.

And MB too, apparently.

Back in my day, it was kind of like Vancouver’s Everett or Marysville, too far out to be reasonable. Now it too has insanely inflated housing prices and odd money prancing around.

Fort Langley has a lot of money. We have a local 918 owner, lots of exotics. Certain areas in Langley have very, very high net worth individuals, others not so much.

It has changed for sure. You’re totally right, it used to be the sticks full of hicks. Now it’s $$$

I’ll guess much of it is people linked to property/real estate development, or more sketchy offshore money that finds the lower mainland to be an irresistible magnet.

Pretty much

We also have a BMW dealer and an exotics dealer in the same mall.

And Infinity, but who cares about that.

Things I remember about Langley from back in my day - ice rink with bar attached, the mall, Superstore.

What’s next, a Bentley dealer in Chilliwack?

lol. They’d have to sell a shit ton of corn. While housing prices have gone up in Chilliwack, it isn’t too bad.

I can confirm that most people there still bear a striking resemblance to Cletus from the Simpsons.

At this rate, give it another 15 years or so.

I am sure you are familiar with the Youtube videos of a guy in the‘Wack who set up a camera to record the Florida-esque happenings in front of his house.

I am indeed. Strange place out that way.

Mission might be alright... still likely not going. But fuck driving into metro van, that’s a mess I don’t need. Coming back from the island on the long weekend, after going through there on the way in I took the horseshoe bay ferry and went north through the Duffey to avoid it. Which, incidentally, 100% recommend as best route from the coast.
