We were on 16 Ave by 9:30 to the Aldergrove Border Crossing in beautiful sunshine. It took about 25 minutes to cross but the guy drilled us about where were we going, how long, where did we live when we were in Canada, who was staying in the condo while we were gone, how many days had we been in the States this year etc. He told us if they suspected we were overstaying or selling our hobbycrafts in the U.S they have the right to send us back and we had to prove differently. Never asked about food or drink. Of course we could answer all the right things and drove right on Axton Rd. to Frendale to fuel up at $3.38 gal. We got our first windshield decoration, a huge red blob, looked like a low flying turkey left over from Thanksgiving that had been eating cranberries flew over. Beautiful driving day, Seattle was busy but fine, saw the Space Needle, stopped at Hawkes Praire for lunch but felt it took too long. Bypassed Portland on the 205 and got to Camperland in Wilsonville at 5 p.m. Popped over to Les Schwabs Tire to have them checked - all fine and are staying overnight under his canopy service pullthrough.
