70th Anniversary of D-Day - Drive a CMP to Canada

Which border post is that? Pittsburg NH to Chartierville QC? Which my father pronounces Short-shay Ville.

Hi Terry

Yes it was the Pittsburg NH to Chartierville QC crossing, which actually the only boarder crossing in New Hampshire, the others you cross briefly into Vermont before crossing into Quebec Province.

If we had more time and more people with passports I would have really linked to have taken a loop up through Chatierville that is a very pretty chunk of country surprising how much the terrain changes once you come down that long hill from the boarder.

Still sorting out the photos and waiting for the others in the group to send me their photos and then I'll be posting a bunch.

A 500-600 mile round trip convoy is not long by Australian or even European standards but it was the longest our local club has taken in the 34 years I've been involved. Yes we have had a couple of vehicles travel together to National events but this is the first that we run 10 or more on such a long haul.

Cheers Phil
