This American orphan is so isolated that I need to go through two border crossings to get there.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;My trip was to see for myself two beautiful one acre lots that Hardy &amp;amp; Associates are selling. This might be the perfect spot for a small boutique hotel or guesthouse. &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="bodytext1"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;I drove from Bellingham, WA to the Peace Arc border crossing located in Blaine showing my passport to Canadian officials. Now in Canada, I continued on for another 25 minutes through the Canadian town of Tsawwassen to the US/Canadian check point leading into Point Roberts.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Having showed my passport a second time I gain entry in to this unique outpost of America. Tucked away and isolated from the rest of the States, PR takes on its own quiet sense of calm.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Surrounded by the beautiful water of Puget Sound/Georgia Straits life seems to slow. &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;This is it, a perfect opportunity to develop a truly unique hotel.&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="http://www.bhardy.com/"&gt;www.bhardy.com&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.bhardy.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=497508" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
