hey guys

just wondering.. ive never been outside of canada, and was kinda having an erge to go to the states just for the sake of it

gay idea.. most likely

costly idea.. most likely

but i dont care, i thought i might as well go and see what the fuss is about

just wondering what the closest city from calgary is, i know seattle isnt too far but its an 11hour drive, i was thinking somehwere in washington, but im not picky, maybe go for a day or two for some sight seeing, shopping, maybe wine and dine with the misses,.. i dunno

any suggestions?

let me know thanks

You should just drive down to Cali or some where , its really damn easy to do ... Montana down to Idaho then cut across the top part of Nevada and your in Cali... Took me and Ryder only 19 hours.

Vegas is a 17 hour drive. If you are going to go the U.S, don't limit yourself to some boring destination,

Chicago is also surprisingly close to Calgary, and so is California. If you take a friend, and you guys take 5 hr intervals driving, you'll get there in no time.

no one cares man. My friend just came back he was 20 and wasn't ID'd a single time. If you are going to spend the better part of a day driving, you might as well drive somewhere worthwhile.

The only time someone asked me for ID was when I was playing the slots at the airport right before we boarded to come back home :rofl:

Great falls in Close but nothing there.

I lived worked there for 4years trust me dont bother.....its about the size of red dear...well maybe a bit smaller now.

But ya its like 6 hr drive only. Go shouth on Macloud Tr and you'll find your way easy drive used to come back for meetings every month. LONG BORING 6hr drive.

Just got back from Big Mountain 2 weekends ago.. Whitefish is good if you're into skiing.. but there's really not much else to do at night.. hit the local pubs/clubs and that's about it.. still had a great time though.

lol i used google maps, but thats not really a solution because i am looking for the closest city that would be fun, i dont know the cities in the states therefore asking opinions on where to go

well i would say seattle is the closest 'fun' city

unless you want to go to missoula and eat granola and smoke dank nuggs and play hippy for holiday

but really it's a fun but small town
