    Ah yes, Happy Canada Day! A day when Canadians decide to leave their country en masse and come to the US for shopping, vacation, etc.

    A year ago today, I was foolish enough to attempt 4 border crossings in a day (Port Huron to Buffalo and back again). Going into Canada was easy both ways. Coming into the US was horrendous both ways. I spent more than 6 hours total waiting to cross the borders that day, only about 15 minutes of that was US into Canada crossings.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...

    It will likely be worse this year, given the CND dollar is higher than usd at the momment.

    Have a great day Canadians!

    Just like for some reason we all flock up there for Labor Day. LOL.

    Isn't it funny how most of our major holidays coincide pretty much with Canada's?
