Yeah, a lot of people would like to see the ferry start up again. I think the Kingston to Wolfe Island ferry is the more important one, as Wolfe Island has a lot of people living there. Not as many people crossed USA to Wolfe Island, or the other way, but enough that it kept a small ferry profitable.

I pulled up to the NY side of the ferry. They were raising the ramp, asked me if I wanted to cross and I said yes. They said it was $5 and lowered the ramp for me, and a pickup pulled up behind me. There were two cars and the pickup besides me on that crossing. It happened so fast that I did not have a chance to take any photos on land at that point.



The truck and cars beat me off the ferry so I had to wait about five minutes to see a Canadian border agent.

The Wolfe Island ferry had a long line of cars waiting for it. And it was going to take a while, so I dug out my food and made lunch while waiting. Then the next ferry to Kingston.



You have a nice looking tandem.

I am glad I had a chance to stop you from learning the hard way that the ferry was no longer running. If your posting did not say Kingston, I would not have thought to warn you.
