I crossed into Canada at Grand Portage, MN,       which is probably not a popular crossing for US citizens with Kentucky       plates. :) They were nice, but they did detain me for some light       questioning. They seemed very interested in how long I planned to stay,       did I have a job to return to, and was I visiting anyone in Canada.              Coming back into the US a little over a week later, I crossed back in at       Port Huron, MI. The border crossing there was more formal, with the       mirrors that were pointed up under the car, etc., but the guy at the shack       barely looked at my passport before letting me pass. Part of that could have       been because the vehicle behind me followed me right into the "box" that       only my vehicle was supposed to be in... they seemed a lot more interested       in what he/she was up to than what I was up to. :)              Mike               * SLMR 2.1a * Are you pulling my leg! ...nahh, that's just the dog!       --- SBBSecho 3.12-Linux        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 18/200 19/25 33 36 38 50 80/1 90/1 105/81 106/101       SEEN-BY: 106/201 633 987 116/18 120/302 340 123/131 140 124/5014 5016       SEEN-BY: 129/305 130/803 153/7715 154/10 203/0 218/700 221/0 222/2       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 428 452 664 700 981 1016       SEEN-BY: 229/1017 230/150 152 240/1120 2100 5138 5411 5824 5832 5853       SEEN-BY: 249/206 307 317 400 250/1 261/38 100 1466 266/512 267/155       SEEN-BY: 275/100 280/464 5003 282/1038 1056 288/100 291/100 111 292/854       SEEN-BY: 310/31 317/3 320/119 219 322/757 340/400 341/66 342/200 387/25       SEEN-BY: 387/26 396/45 423/120 633/280 640/1321 712/848 770/1 801/161       SEEN-BY: 801/189 2320/0 105 195 200 304 2452/250 2454/119 3634/12       SEEN-BY: 5020/1042       PATH: 2320/105 261/38 396/45 280/464 240/5832 229/426           |
