We might let you in but your guys might not let you back. Make sure you have a valid passport or 2 pieces of gov't issued phot ID (i think) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gone8to1248 158 Report post Posted February 10, 2008 Thanks guys! I knew this was coming, so last year I got a passport and it does make it easier crossing both ways.... But if I'm not a Canadian or a foriegn citizen, just what am I? Second thought don't answer that! Bernie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gone8to1248 158 Report post Posted February 11, 2008 I've been watching the current and forecast weather reports for the route up there and I'm allowing myself 2 days for driving in any case. I'll take off on wednsday and drive up to either Eua Claire or Superior, Wisconsin the first day and then on thursday drive the rest of the way on into Thunder Bay. That will give me a day to rest up and get ready for the Sport Show on Friday evenning and some drinks afterwards at the meet and greet! Bernie I think shorts and tee shirts are out of the question this trip along with sun bathing! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
