You Trixies Are Elitist!

Dear Trixie ...

I came upon your web page a few days ago. While I come from an "extremely" upper class family in California, I now live in Paradise Valley, Arizona (the Malibu or Beverly Hills of Arizona). Paradise Valley is the home of more million dollar homes than in the entire state of Indiana, I would imagine. Anyway, why is it that you Trixies think you're better then everyone else? What makes you so elite? I mean, I don't act like that ... what gives you the right?

Dear Roxy,

I believe that you've overreacted too quickly. You see, the BRTS doesn't stand for extremely 'rich' or Beverly Hills-style exotic luxury. While those things are all very nice, we here in Broad Ripple settle for a more subtle, refined luxury in the places we live, the people we associate with, and the materials we take for granted.

The "Good Life" in Broad Ripple is everything we make of it, and if you look at the Society's blog in detail or interview a few of our members, you'll see that we really enjoy what we have. It might not be the very best, but that's what Sea Island, Georgia is for, right? Everyone knows you can't have a ten acre 12,000 square foot estate in Broad Ripple, and who would want one anyway? Our quaint bungalows, Cape Cods and Tudors confined to proper;y proportional urban lots are quite adequate for us; this is city living after all!

I suggest that you stand back and look at things in a different light. Trixies don't think they are 'better' than everyone else -- in fact, most Trixies are not aware of everyone else. Trixies are simply interested in living the best lives they can here in our wonderful neighborhood in the nation's finest little urban village.

Best Regards,
Ashley
