Motorhome Diaries crew facing fresh border thuggery

At least for the moment, Jason Talley still has Twitter access.
I’m unlikely to be able to follow this closely, so follow Jason on Twitter (@JDTalley) and Pete (@peteeyre) if you haven’t already. Also, tracking the #MHD tag on Twitter is a way to get the news, especially if the boys go silent.
From Jason’s tweets, reverse-chronological:
- We will now be escorted into a new holding area. This time it’s the U.S. government. 16 minutes ago
- Reinforcements have been called. Homeland Security vehicle is now blocking MARV. 19 minutes ago
- U.S. Border Guard told @peteeyre to stop recording or his camera would be confiscated. 21 minutes ago
- Now we are getting hassled by U.S. Border Guards in Detroit. #MHD 23 minutes ago
- Canadian border guards are tossing our motorhome again. I just cleaned it. about 2 hours ago
- We’re in the no man’s land between Detroit and Windsor, Canada… on accident. Wrong turns suck. about 2 hours ago
Gak.

And released around 12:15 UTC… maybe 6:15pm Michigan time?
@JDTalley: #MHD 3 released from the custody of U.S. & Canadian crossing guards. @ryanmaddox89 is my hero.

I’ve said this before, but I’m *dying* to know what happened now.

The MHD has the blog entry up! Along with this picture.
Hey David,
Yeah, I’ve skimmed through it several times. I’m a bit slow at reading French though, but the other day I took your property questionnaire during a discussion with Franc.
