I have ridden my motorcycle back and forth across Canada-USA border areas for the past 10 years, coast to coast. Many of the American roads I have taken are fantastic motorcycle rides. Love them. Want to come back, ride them again. Miss them. Miss all the campsite fireside chats with fellow campers. Miss those friendly, respectful across-the-border chats with new friends. I have always been well treated and respected wherever I camped in the USA. So it is not the American people, and it’s not me.

When a president of the United States threatens to force us to our knees via economic destruction, lies to us regularly, we are not going to roll over. Far from it. We know who we are hurting. We know we are hurting businesses we have patronized for decades. Those business owners are friends of ours; they have been there for years. We miss them too.

The sooner the current occupant of government-run social housing, at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., Washington, D.C., is replaced with a responsible adult the sooner we will be back.

Love, peace and good health to us all.
