I remember one year in Portland the news was covering those hills full of freezing rain and people sliding all over the place [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek2.gif[/img] [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif[/img] [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek2.gif[/img]

And while it was a tourist trap, it appeared to be frequented by many local residents. 20 plus dollars a pound for king crab legs, is that close to your local price? It's about half that price here.

Never saw that show, but its right near Alaska, so if anything Salmon and Alaskan crab should be reasonably priced.

I dunno TDude, how many tourists are going to broil grab legs and/or salmon...well any kind of fish for that matter while on holiday? And if someone like you took a Saturday drive to Seattle, why would you buy there?

Maybe the price is high to cover the costs of rent. Although the floral arrangements were not that pricey. $10 - 15 for those lovely bunches.
