America the Beautiful

Thursday, June 17, 2010

Eleanor: I was driving when we came to the border of Canada and the U.S. As I handed over our passports, the Custom's agent asked where we were coming from. Without thinking, I said, "Canada", and then started to laugh and said, "Of course we're coming from Canada", and quickly tried to think of the town we stayed in last night. I finally said that we were on the road from Florida and had been in Canada the previous two nights. That must have satisfied him as he sent us on our way.
We are staying at the same motel in northern N.H. that we stayed in a few years ago when driving in from Canada. We had a late lunch at the restaurant we ate in then, only now it is under new ownership and has a new name.
One more day and we'll be home in Maine. We're ready to stop living out of a suitcase and eating pretty much the same breakfast for 30-plus days. It'll be nice to pick out our favorite foods in the supermarket and settle into our summer routine in our beautiful part of the country.
