No frills travel
Today was the return leg of our trek, so after a goodbye to my family and “Hola Blanca” we were out of the city (past the MURF-to-be site with its two metre soil cap and test wells). Before turning east, we stopped to buy pop and granola bars in a “NO Frills” grocery outlet in Whitby. Shopping carts for rent, pay for your bags at a nickel a throw, the currency checked to see that it wasn’t counterfeit; this was not my idea of the friendly neighbourhood grocer.
