Hmmmm! Getting out of Canada, back into the U.S.A. TODAY, SUNDAY, BEFORE
NOON. should be a slam dunk, right? But noooo. Judy checked her watch when
we reached the Sumas maze. One hour and 15 minutes later in the hot sun. No
idle zone. So no A.C. Yellow jackets everywhere, so no open windows either.
When we arrived at the booth, handed them our pasports, answered the
questions they asked truthfully, about 2 minutes at the booth and we were
on our way. Sure felt good to be under way and get some air circulation. I
guess you never know how long it is going to be. One idiot in a diesel
pusher towing a Fiat pulled into a closed lane. They had to back up a whole
bunch of cars to allow the coach room to back out of there.
Pi $$€d off a whole bunch of folks who were waiting in line. Just the way
it goes, I guess.
