Define Mountain House Meaning

Mountain House
Moutain House, California was a poor attempt at creating a town in the cow pastures in the San Joaquin Valley next to Tracy. In 2003, a developer began to build a couple of thousand homes in the middle of nowhere. In late 2006, only a few hundred homes were built and sold and new homes were not selling anymore. In 2008, the developer declared bankruptcy and abandoned Mountain House. For teens there is no high school. For any and all Mountain House residents, there are no stores, schools, medical offices, or anything. There is nowhere for a teen to hang out. Nearby towns of Stockton or Tracy are low income/high crime and not a good place to hang out. My friends and I usually go into the beautiful towns of the Bay Area to hang out. We like the Hacienda Crossings shopping center/cineplex in Dublin and although a bit more of a drive, we also go to the really nice, upscale Streets of Brentwood with a digital Rave cinexplex. To make matters worse, the few hundred homes that were bought in Moutain House were bought with Option ARM loans by people without good incomes so most houses are now in some phase of foreclosure. In a couple of years, Mountain House will probably be an abandoned ghost town.

Mountain House always smells like a cow pasture and has nothing to do and no services. It is like living in the middle of the desert. Why couldn't my parents buy in a nice San Francisco Bay Area town like Livermore or Brentwood?

Rocky Mountain House
place. Cosmopolitan Albertan city ideally located where the heart of the glacial gravel deposits meet the shoulder of the Rocky Mountain alluvial boulder accretions. Industry is quite diversified. Factories where large limestone rocks are pummeled into dust for concrete manufacturing stand arm-in-arm with factories where gravel is carefully sieved for concrete manufacturing.

David Thompson, a Welshman posing as a Scottish Hudson Bay surveyor under an assumed accent, is honoured with a museum and re-created wooden fort on the less-dusty side of town. Each summer a festive re-creation of the stripping of the area's resources by Europeans with an exaggerated sense of entitlement is staged by local actors dressed as fur traders. Lemonade is available.

Shooting Wapiti, deer, rapids, muskrats, mallards, stoneys, goldeye and pool are popular pursuits as are participating in rodeo events and living life large.

Education is a priority as is participation in civic government and watching hockey. Some of the best hockey players in the world have come from near Rocky Mountain House and it is fondly remembered by many players as the place where they first scored.
.

Let's go to Rocky Mountain House this week-end. We could watch the rodeo, buy a sack of gravel and get our windshield repaired.

So many windshield repair shops! You think there might be a bit too much gravel out that way?

Rocky Mountain House
A small town in Alberta Near Red Deer that is commonly prided on its "oil and agriculture". Beyond this is has a population of grade nines with the single lowest IQ ever. Rocky can be known for it's toothless bar folk at the bottom of its "main street" or for how amazingly greasey everyone who works at McDonald's is. Often the people from Rocky when asked where they are from will not respond and will try to change the subject with the lightning fast reflexes of a sloth.

"Hey where are you from?"- Rando
"The sky is blue wanna ride bicycles?"- Rocky Mountain House Folk
