   Hello Mike!

   Yes.. apparently anyone returning to the States [even a US     
   citizen] is subject to CBP inspections.   
      
   Offloading phone images to the laptop won't help - your CBP     
   would be inspecting laptops too.   
      
   You could enter Canada without issue, but coming back you would     
   need to offload your images to the cloud or something [like,     
   mail them back to yourself?] ... unless, standalone SD/media     
   cards are exempt from searches at your boarder? / which I     
   doubt.   
      
      
    MP> Unfortunately, one of them takes a card type that is now obsolete!  :O   
      
   I suppose if your pics are innoccuous things, then you have     
   nothing to be concerned about. However, the searches through     
   media devices does seem like overreach.
