Kingston - Wolfe Island Ontario Canada Roundtrip Ferry Ride
Wolfe Island is an island at the entrance to the Saint Lawrence River in Lake Ontario near Kingston, Ontario. Wolfe Island is part of Frontenac County, Ontario and the Township of Frontenac Islands. It is the largest of the Thousand Islands. The largest community on the island is Marysville. The island was part of the traditional hunting lands of the Tyendinaga Mohawk people and the original name of the island is Ganounkouesnot ('Long Island Standing up'). It was called Grand Ile by the French, but was later named after British General James Wolfe by British settlers.[1]
The island is about 29 kilometres (18 miles) long, with its width varying from around 9 kilometres (6 miles) to a few hundred metres at some points; its area is about 124 square kilometres (48 square miles). The resident population is about 1400 people, but this can double or triple in summer. Wolfe Island has its own post office (K0H 2Y0) and telephone exchange (+1-613-385-).
Wolfe Island can be accessed by ferry from both Canada and the United States. The ferry from Kingston (Wolfe Islander III) is operated by the Ministry of Transportation and is free of charge. This ferry operates from two locations: the Summer Dock located in Marysville and the Winter Dock located at Dawson Point. This route includes a bubbler system that stretches to the Barrack Street Dock in Kingston, Ontario.[2] This ferry service is currently being examined in an ongoing transportation study.[2] The seasonal Horne's Ferry (May to October) toll ferry[3] to Cape Vincent, New York, first licensed in 1802, is still operated by the descendants of the first licence-holder and is one of the rare Canada-US international border crossings to be privately operated (the others are the Windsor-Détroit's Ambassador Bridge and Sombra–Marine City (Bluewater) Ferry).

St. Clair River, Freighter
A significant portion of the border between the United States and the neighboring nation of Canada is occupied by the St. Lawrence Seaway, a collection of lakes and rivers including the St. Lawrence River, the Detroit River and the St. Clair river. It is a massively busy shipping lane where cargo freighters are a common viewing attraction!

Sombra Museum investigation
Located in Sombra, Ontario the Sombra Museum was once a home built in the 1800's. Tonight CHAPS hopes to uncover some of the history and speak to any spirits within.
toronto to lake huron
Some impressions from my bike and canoe trip from Toronto to Caseville (Michigan).
It is not possible to bike the border over the blue water bridge at Sarnia. The bridge operator gives cyclists a lift over the bridge on demand, but recommends to take the 35km detour via Sombra-Marine City and take the ferry there. In Port Austin i changed the Transportation method and canoed a couple days along the shore of the Huron Lake.
Ferry across St Clair River to Ontario
Life on the St. Clair River
Don't let the summer breeze fool you, It's 80 degrees here on the St. Clair River. Enjoying the view from the front deck of my parents home in East China, MI. Two freighter sailing through signal they are passing eah other. Directly across the river is Ontario Canada when you cross from Marine City on the Ferry you'll be in Sombra.
The Useless Border Patrol
I thought I would pick on the Border Patrol after reading about a local story. I'm sick of seeing these federal agents suck off the tax payers tit. I always see them driving around like assholes, or sleeping on the job, or just hearing how unpleasant they can be. Maybe its just the bad apples I hear about, but that doesn't change the fact that I don't want to be spied on by their cameras, while illegals pour in though from Mexico.
