195. At the Canada/US Border Crossing
My sister, brother-in-law and myself were driving home from Canada.

The radio in the rental car wasn't working.

We stopped at the border gift shop and went inside. Being young, we were laughing and goofing around.

When we went to the register, the woman there looked at us oddly and said "It's a sad day for your country."

We had no idea what she was talking about and asked her what she meant.

I remember how incredibly stunned we were, and the silent drive the rest of the way home.
