Point Roberts is a small American town situated on the other side of the 49th parallel on the end of a peninsula. It is completely cut off from the mainland United States which makes it something of an oddity. I, and many other Canadians who live close, buy our gas there because it is about 40 cents per litre cheaper. It is only 12 miles from where I live and about 2 miles from my golf club so filling up when I play golf is the easiest for me. This image was taken on a recent gas run.
@jgpittenger Thanks Jane. Following your advice I cropped some of the wall out. I think most of it has to remain, it looks odd otherwise, at least to my eye.
@dkellogg Actually, you do. To enter Point Roberts you go through US Customs and return through Canadian Customs. Both require a passport. We have 9/11 to thank for that. Prior to then all that was needed was a drivers licence or approved photo ID.
