Trek to town

 Joe went shopping the day before, I had an errand the 16th. Afterwards, I was to pick up Joe's Rx.

The trek to the drugstore... it wasn't easy. I drove in on Elliot St. This is where I wanted to go, the building on the far left is the drug store. (Even though it is labelled Canada Post!) Highway 7 runs through Perth, is terribly busy, I tend to avoid it. 

I thought I was at the parking lot when I turned right, but realized the truck was trying to get to the delivery ramp at the ↓black arrow.  I'd headed up Gore St. W. and didn't have much choice after turning left on Elliot! 

This is what I found, a large semi blocking the road. 

What could I do but go around. I presumed he was delivering to the drug store. I cannot imagine doing this. These big delivery trucks have to drive in off Elliot, drive up to the highway and back up to the delivery ramp. Funny thing, I met it at the other entrance. 

 

Monday was busier. Someone put out his shoulder. I hustled into town. I took in  a suitcase full of children's books. Classics, like Dr. Seuss, and some wonderful nature picture books on frogs, toads, trees and such. Two bags of potassium chloride and some frozen M & M's meals from Home Hardware!

I rewarded myself with a panini and caesar salad from the cafe for lunch. Somebody was sitting in his chair with headphones on. He didn't notice me, and I ate my lunch at the table. 

Back home to more snow. Either rain, thaw or snow!

 

 It's so much nicer when the sun is out. 

 

Tues., Jan. 20. Bundle up!
