St Catharines can be considered a dull town espically to those of us who live here. Conisdering the next town over is Niagara Falls and Toronto is about an hour away, anything seems dull.
Positive attributes include a very decent mall for shopping http://www.thepencentre.com/HTMLpages/home.htm , and Port Dalhousie. http://www.portdalhousie.com/ Port has always drawn it’s visitors, with great restaurants, unique shopping and a comfortable beach (beach not water). Oh and last but not least St Catharines is home to some fabulous wineries, hence the city’s “Grape and Wine festival” Always a blast. http://www.grapeandwine.com/

A common saying around here is “grow up and get out”. This is exactly what I did and I do not regret it a bit. There is a serious lack of industry and sustainable, developping economy. Sure it may look nice (actually only Port looks nice…the rest of the city is in dire need of a MAJOR facelift) but there is no future here. Plus the local government…don’t even get me started about them.

It’s strange how one can be in the same place over and over again and never take the time to notice what beauty lies before them.
Having been in St. Catharines numerous times, I have only now begun to appreciate the beauty of the trees, the land, the buildings, the seasons. Maybe it’s because I am getting older and realizing that life is going by so quickly and I haven’t “stopped to smell the roses.”
Take a walk…see the children playing, hear the birds singing their songs of freedom, watch the people living their lives.
It’s worth it.

The Mall and the bus stop in Saint Catharines seem pretty nice. There is a nice little vegetarian cafe called “Beantrees”. Go to Port Colborne though for some more fun!
