    Sault Ste. Marie is the best retirement area in America with incredibly cheaper home prices, great hospital and growing businesses. There are 80k plus Canadians who come shopping on the U.S. side. A gold mine? Yes!!! Sault Ste. Marie, the place to be. The new road and flowers make the business area look stunning. Bring your business, bring your family.

    I was stationed at Kincheloe in the mid-70's, up to the date the base closed, September 1, 1977. My dog tags are somewhere in the power station basin where a girl I was dating threw them when I broke up with her! The Soo was nice during the summer, winters are tough!

    My folks were caretakers at Iroquois Pt lighthouse, Ed and Inez Dorie and i have spent many a day there helping dad with alot of the little things that come up. Born and raised in the Soo and have since migrated west to Washington State. Heart is still there in the Soo.

      Hi I live in Oregon, headed up that way this summer/ will visit family In Marquette area, than travel your way. I am a little confused on some travel issues/ will drive from Marquette to your great town/ would like to pick up the train in Canada from there/. Do you have any idea how to do just that head towards Toronto? Thx David

    • @RogerDiotte
      @RogerDiotte 4 года назад +2

      @@dta97392 So how'd this trip all end up? The border is closed to tourists so that'll put a big damper to your visit! Regardless there's no train service from Sault Ontario to Toronto, at least none in the way for passengers as there's only freight lines.
      If you really wanted a train to Toronto for posterity sake here's how that would work. You'd have to drive way up North on the Trans Canada Highway (Hwy 17 North). At about 3.5 hours north you'd take a right at White River Ontario off the main highway onto Hwy. 631 to Hornepayne Ontario (pop. 980) and another 1 hour travel (Total hours 4.5 Soo to Hornepayne).
      Once in Hornepayne you'd have to time it right as "The Canadian" Via Rail Passenger train travels across Canada on various days only.
      In other words, it would be and is a very very very unreal way to get to Toronto and one that NO ONE does from Sault Ste. Marie because of the almost 5 hour drive North in remote Northern Ontario when Toronto is South East of Sault Ste. Marie on Highway 17 East (Trans Canada Hwy.)

      I went to Lssu from 93-95. I turned 21 in what I think is three one three on Ashmun. Do you know off hand what bars were open during that time so when I turn 50 this coming April, I can go to the bars that were open then?

    This is where BOTH of my parents grew up in! One, on Shrunk Rd, the other, on Johnston St. As a kid, this IS the ONLY place my sister and I went to, on vacation. And, we still love this town!! We have little or no family left, except in the grave yards! But, STILL WANT TO come home! I just wish people would remember the GREAT things about the SOO!! HOW fun the Tourist STRIP was! The Haunted Railroad, the rock shop, cheap and tacky tourist crap(that we all buy on these trips). Moccasins in EVERY Pattern, REAL FUDGE, in every flavor you can imagine and People going down to the Locks with ice cream and watching the fountain change colors! But, I guess, unless Big name shops come to the Soo on the locks, it doesn't really stand a chance!

    • @RogerDiotte
      @RogerDiotte 4 года назад +1

      Nope wrong, that's why a lot of people go to towns like these because just enough shops but more natural things and that reflects on the people that live there also. You get a better sense of what drives a place when there's less of something and more of the other and that I guess comes with experience. Myself I rather tend to like having places like this to be around...Hence why I live in this area!

      Picture a snow globe after you tip it upside down and shake it. However, the great people in the area make those long, miserable winters tolerable.

    I'm about to head up that way in a week...it's pronounced "Soo Saint Marie"? I'm glad to know that because I don't want to sound like a jackass. I've already done a good job of that trying to pronounce Wisconsin's towns and cities. LOL
