Default Re: HUGE CITY DEBT FREE--run by 88 year old mayor

The latest project which we drive by every day are the two condominium towers dubbed, "The Marilyn Monroe" towers. Also Mississauga is next going to build a village center to give that portion of Mississauga a small town feel.

The demographics here is a virtual United Nations of all races and cultures. If you like ethnic foods we have everything in Mississauga, plus at least 3 fabulous buffet restaurants. We also have a Denny's :-)

We are two to two and one-half hours from our beloved lakes in "Cottage Country". For some reason a "portal" in a small town on the granite shield was pointed out to me this month and it seems it might be wise for me to consider pulling together a small "Ascension Community". A community of "Ascenders"? LOL!!!

The southern ends of Mississauga hold remnants of the Carolinia Forest where I can still see my beloved azaleas and rhodendrons and Hollies.

Next door to Mississauga is the town of Oakville which is replete with million dollar plus homes and beautifully landscaped with old oak trees.

One is never more than 20 minutes from Lake Ontario and there are some beautiful waterfronts on LakeShore in Mississauga.

I just discovered by the Old Lighthouse one of the best fish and chips restaurants I have yet tried.

I'm hoping we have lots of beautiful snowflakes this year -- each snowfall is a work of art. Yes, towards the end of winter the grey snow sitting in piles by the roads does start to dull one's senses.
