Your probably right TC,sometimes I wonder about some of these people that work on both sides of the border. However they have more power than the police. Hope to see you and your wife at Lake George.

Just a short story of my entry into Canada last year. Not for the Regional.
Cindy and I and another couple crossed at Wolfs Island.
Cindy and I had to stand 30 feet away from our bikes while the border attendant went through every piece of luggage, each saddle bag and our windshield bags. Needless to say I was not happy. When he was done I asked what he was looking for, he said firearms. Why I asked, because you belong to the National Rifle Association he replied.
I take it that it was Horne's ferry that you crossed with? One of the smallest ferries that I have been on. Really funny when someone with a trailer gets on there and it is angle parked. I had thought about David's concerns at the border as well. We would be out the cost of the motel in American dollars. Ouch. But I am sure with my innocent demeanor that we won't have a problem.

David it's something that anyone coming into the US needs to be concerned about, unless you are a business concern of someone in a non-round office. Entering the US is a lot different now than it was 90 days ago.

Along with TSA's new more intimate pat searches.

Hope to see you in LG
