Grew up across the lake from Toronto in Western NY. Canada was a big part of growing up. The boarder didn't mean a thing. Crossed over all the time and new the custom agents on both sides of the bridge by their first names. Never ever missed HOCKEY NIGHT IN CANADA. Go LEAFS.
Mr.Jones was a custodian in our school but lived in Niagara on the Lake CA. He took the ferry across the river every day, then back at night. Oh he also played the bass drum in the CA. pipe band.
Man I haven't thought about that in a long time.....GREAT thread..:-))
