corona lockdown day 126

This morning has the feel of an impending storm but it did hold off until lunchtime. I hung the laundry out and it did dry in the morning. After I hung out the laundry I was in the garden and I spotted the baby bunny (who has been growing a lot in the last few weeks so I should almost not refer to him that was) and he was beside the AC. I watched him for a bit as he was nibbling around that. But after a while he felt safe enough to come out and eat the weeds and the rose bush leaves. I stood still while the bunny did all that. Eventually he came within one foot of me and gave me some sniffs before he hopped away. He was a bit curious I think.

Then I biked out to the registry office and I actually made it in! Getting the survey had some other challenges. The lady told me it was self serve and I needed to go to a computer at the back and get an R number or an M number but when I did the computer search, it gave me neither. My lot is old, apparently. So I had to get back in the inside line and explain my lack of the correct numbers. Then she directed me to the filing cabinets at the very back. Where apparently the old ones are. But I found it. Then I had to go back to her to purchase it. But she needed to then send me to another wicket. The cost was only $5 but they only take cash. Of course I have only been using cards in the pandemic but I found some change at the bottom of my backpack that amounted to $5 and made it out with a historical document. It was from 1941. Probably not much use for the garage issue but a fun historical document.

Then I checked the weather radar to see how far off the storm was and as it was progressing slowly I biked the KP trail to Sydenham road. There weren't many people on the trail but the 2 people I encountered (father and son about 10 years old) as I was biking toward them I saw something fall on the ground behind them (though I couldn't see what it was) so I slowed down and asked them if they had dropped something. Without even turning to see what it was the father immediately denied it. Which I thought was funny as he hadn't even looked. But then he did look and saw it was his hat and was very grateful. I ran into Shari leaving her house on Sydenham so we chatted and prayed a bit. Then I biked back the trail.

We are almost out of juice so I'll need to go shopping tomorrow.
