Richard,

We have crossed several times on our way from MI to upstate NY and also for
the past two years camping at Buses of the Corn.

If you do not have a passport and don't really need one then a less
expensive method is to aquire an enhanced driver's license. Cost about $45 -
you have to provide some extra ID to the Secretary of State office (or DMV
where ever you do these things in your state). The license should arrive in
a couple of weeks and allows passage to and from Canada and Mexico without
the need for a passprt.

Post 9/11 reality, at least in my experience, is that we get more
questioning coming back into the US than we do entering Canada. We've had to
pull over for inspection once but it wasn't that bad.

Also, be sure to purchase any produce after you cross the border - they
still don't approve of carrying fruits or veggies accross the boarder (and
some meats too).

Enjoy your trip - sounds like it will be awesome.
