I like Robin's coffee. There were two Robin's here but one closed when TH
opened nearby. In Fort Frances it was an event --first they opened a Walmart
then a Tim Horton's -- big city stuff :-)

There's no donut shop on the American side here -- supermarkets have
bakeries -stuff is OK but it sits on the shelf.

I think they all have their own strengths and weaknesses. I try to avoid
them all as much as I can.

15,000 people? Pretty metroolitan:-) When I visited my sister in San Diego I
remarked that there were more cars in a Sam's Club (I think) parking lot
than there are here on both sides of the border.
