Gnome comes Home
After a long wait we finally got on the 2:00 ferry. The foolish gnome had to be held lest he fall off the boat. The trip home could have been smooth but for a few snaggles. Got a timely start from Merritt and over yet another mountain pass with awesome scenery. Just before our exit for Sumas border crossing we got caught the the backup crawl from an accident. 2k of inching along. Only a two car wait at the border. Quickest crossing into US we have ever done. Lunch and shopping at Haggens. No sign of excess traffic from freeway closure. Then we get on Guemes. Sign on South Shore said road work. It did not say road closed which was the case. So we had to go around slogging through wet tar !! Grrr!
