>Steve,

At the moment I can think of the McLaughlin Woodworking Museum

just east of Kingston on Highway 2 ( the old highway).

I've been there 2-3X and enjoy the vast assoertment of antique planes and tools they have.

If you look it up, it is probably under the City of Kingston information as it is on the outskirts of the city.

>Well I probably have the best collection of tools between Toronto and NH, but I'm not open to the public.

MacLachlan was not open when I biked through there in the summer of Sept '05, you have to hit the odd day of the week it is actually open.

If you are nuts about Japanese tools, Hirade is in the south of NH, NW of Boston.

Any Shaker villages in the realm of Dunbar?

Have fun with the course!

What border docs are you taking?

There's that place in Warren, Maine ...

>The Shelburne Museum in Shelburne, VT (right near Burlinton) has a large collection of tools. The American Precision Museum in Windsor VT is dedicated to early water powered industries. I'm not sure about their being open in Mid-November, however.

Passport, birth certificate, letter from my 3rd grade teacher attesting to my sterling character..you know, just the usual :-)

What does your third grade teacher know about it?

>I got across and back no problem a few week's ago with a driver's license (my wife had her DL too). BY mistake I had brought along my daughter's French passport so while I faked searching for her papers at the US border they just told us to move along. Coming back to Canada was no big deal either.

>Thanks Frank, I have to go to Buffalo to buy out Harbour freight, if they ever dig out, but I was wondering what to expect.

>Same experience here..

I've gone across twice from Canada to the US since August and no problems with simply a drivrs license and birth certificate. If I'm not wrong, you do need to have proof of birth, so birth certificate is your best bet.

There are new restrictions coming however, and you will need a passport or "identity" card sometime in late 2007 if flying using a commercial air carrier..

My passport expired many years ago, I need to go through the hoops once again to get a new one. They aren't renewable :(

Yah and she probably lied.
