I didn't even realize that this was the same date as the wire walk. I hope the border wont be to busy. Maybe Ill cross at Fort Erie.

His walk is the 15th, which is the Friday, we are at Ribfest on the 16th, Saturday, and the Father's day car show on Sunday the 17th. I am unsure if these crazy rates extend into the weekend, or if they affect anything hotel without the view of the falls.

Derek, wen we decide to go home, how does that work? Do we have to fight a crowd?

I am not coming up to Grimsby to meet, only to drive back past my front door. So, I'm thinking I will wait for the convoy at Glendale ave. and the QEW, it would be great if someone texts me (716-622-2626) to let me know when you are leaving Grimsby, then as you come down the QEW call me on the radio (CB or Walkie I have both), so I am ready to join into the moving convoy.
