yeah a salad is a big name for sort of sad little iceberg leaves.
Lorne: Back in Pylea they used to call me "sweet potato." Connor: Really. Lorne: Yeah, well, the exact translation was "fragrant tuber" but…

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh yum. But how is salami cheaper than pickle??

Is having a summer place some east coast thing? I swear, no one I knew around here had a summer place, but it seems like a lot of people in the online world have access to them, and I'm confused.

In Illinois people have cabins in Minnesota or Wisconsin.

Because books.
In New Jersey, a lot of people (well, wealthy people) had houses down the shore. And some families had places in the Poconos.
They were the exception, rather than the rule, though, at least among my friends.

In southern Ontario they have them in less-southern Ontario.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In Quebec, people had places up north. I'm not quite sure I'm the sort of person who'd have a second home anywhere other than Jamaica without having CRAPLOADS of money.
Huh. Now that I've typed that ... I wonder how much modest not-on-the-beach property costs in Ja?

The thing with the cabins, though, and I'm guessing many of the places in Maine and even on the shore, is that they're not locations where many people would want to live year round. Many of them (for the Wisconsin/Ontario/etc. ones, anyway) don't have services year round like snow removal. So cost-wise, it's a lot more plausible for people without bags of money than it would be in more temperate climes.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Yup, my parents bought land in the Poconos when I was a kid with an eye to doing just that. Never followed through, though.
Rhode Island does the shore thing, too. And Mass. has the Cape.
