We got to the Main Border at 7:06, backed way up to the Duty Free on the Canadian side. We finally inched our way through at 8:16. The guard asked where we were going, if we owned a house in Canada and said, go ahead. What a bonus, no checking out the motorhome. Mind you, there's nothing in it, we shop when we get done south. So much easier. With the Canadian dollar actually above par at $1.02.46 many people are cross border shopping. It's never been this busy early in the morning, the 25 years we've gone south in the winter.
We had a pleasant driving day, sunny but low, light fog for a brief time, every time we got near water. Lots of traffic through the cities, even on a Saturday. Pretty fall colors are nice to watch as we go down the road.
We arrived in Wilsonville at 3 p.m. and are checked into the Pheasant Ridge RV Resort where Mike stays. He came to visit and we went out to Wongers, a funky bar and grill where you get peanuts for appies and just throw the shells on the floor. Quaint, I guess and certainly a popular spot..
