Deb, I'm in the Sault, at the north end of I75. Funny enough, it's the Windsor/Detroit crossing where I had the worst time, while with my uncle, a Detroit police officer!! Go figure. For some reason, they don't like me, maybe because I was born in the US, left as a toddler, born to Canadian parents (Dad was US Navy). Anything the least bit complicated becomes a major hassle at the border, and since 2001 it's even worse.
Mamagus, thanks for the links! I am a member at Wazoodle, but I hadn't found most of the rest of your links. I'll check them out.
HMK, thanks for the info on Hamel's. Are ya' west or east of them? I started out in Chilliwack when I moved out there in the 90s. DH is from Maple Ridge/Abbotsford, and we spent most of our time there in Coquitlam.
