for our outing. We caught the Bonny Doon Mall bus. There was some confusion on Anne's part because she could see the bus about to cross Conners road. It was the #524, as it had to head north on Connors road to 95th Ave. then turn right on 95th ave beside our building and to the bus stop (behind CAVA Art galery) just to get to Strathean LRT stop.
We had a wait looking at the construction just East of where we were waiting 95th Ave. The construction was about 20 feet from us. Crews were pounding post holes into the pit. There were large pilons laying in the pit near the post hole machine, about 20 feet behind that leafless tree in the forground..
Our first part of our destination was Churchill connector that connects to the Capital line LRT ower concourse. We needed Century park side. More specifically to Southgate. We left at 4:30pm when the weather was pleasent, and at Southgate at 5pm during peak hours. We were at iHop at 5:40pm in the South Park Centre. We had the 2x5 breakfast. It was very good. Anne likes iHop because they leave the hole container of coffee on the table. I paid for both of us and left the tip. Ok its about to get interesting next: We had a bit of a wait for the #704 back to Southgate and it got real cold waiting for our train to Churchil station. We were waiting for our Valley line train. Lots of homeless. Police on bikes checking in on the homeless people loitering around. Our train home was on the approach. We boarded and arrived at Muttart and top of Connors road on the home streatch, I got up to ready us so we can get to the button that lets us out. We have 2 miniutes roughly. So here's Jimmy, my left hand on a vertical railing and I'm streatching to reach the opposite vertical railing. The driver must have torqued up as I couldn't get to the railing. All I know was here's 240 lbs of Jimmy losing balance on a high performance train neck hitting a lower handle in pinball fasion landing on the floor. Anne screaming. Nothing broken. Two young guys rushed to help me up. Very nice of them. I thanked them. Train came to our stop. I slowly stepped out. One foot after another. nothing broken. neck and lower right side above my hip, totall soar. We hobbled back to our place. our outing was fine until that but it was my own fault. My lower back is still soar. Anyway, that's all for now.
