Spokane, WA
IF U DON'T LIKE IT THEN LEAVE -
2/17/2011This is in response to the people who don't like Spokane and in particular the person that posted the comment about being in Spokane only for school and then leaving.
Everybody has opinions and I respect that. My opinion on Spokane is that it is a great place to live. The city is smaller than places like Seattle and Vegas and L.A. which is why this place is so good to live. Rush hour, what rush hour??? I lived in Vegas where sitting on I-15 for 2 hours and only moving 2 feet was the normal. The roads are bumpy and rutty thanks to the studded snow tires that are allowed so that all of the 2 wheel drive people can get around in the winter time.
There is lots of stuff to do up here especially if people turn off their T.V's and get off the couch to go explore what is out there. Camping, sure and it's only a few minutes away. Beautiful gardens, yup it's at Manito park. What about going to Pig Out in the park in late summer where you can try all kinds of restaruant food or what about the county fair that has all kinds of stuff to do and see. If you like malls then we have a few of those too.
Like most places on earth, Spokane has weather and can be viewed by stepping out the door or watching the news forecast. Unlike some places that I have been, Spokane actually has 4 seasons. Winter is cold and that is why it is called winter. Spring is called spring because everything springs back to live after a cold winter. Summer is nice and generally reflects what this site shows for the average. Fall is neat because you can see the change in all of the things around you.
To the person in college that can't wait to leave. Your comment was nothing but wrong about Spokane. If you don't like it then please leave because the rest of us don't want a complainer in our great city. By all means I hope you graduate early and move somewhere else and please don't let the door hit you on the way out.
To everybody else. I invite you to see what Spokane is really like for yourself and to form your own opinion which you are certainly welcome to!!!
