to CAO on snow tires

I had Malcolm's car, with snow tires, at my disposal, while he was skiing in Whistler. I went up Friday morning to the Carr Astronomical Observatory for an overnight visit. I went to work on the new server and network. Resumed the work I had David and Tony initiated...

So to get some supplies, and additional items for the Horvatin gang already there, I drove, via Barrie, through Collingwood. That's the time to go up the 400! Early morning.

I travelled along the eastern portion of 18th Sideroad and parked at the top of the hill. With my large Pelican toboggan, I sent my gear down the hill, ahead of me. Woo hoo! Oh oh. The Coke bottle, early on, bounced out of the rest of the gear! Jettisoned! Man overboard. Fortunately, the 2 litre bottle didn't not explode. Or get punctured.

Ben, the Australian Shepherd, greeted me as I reached the driveway.

I arrived at the house at my (revised) time, 10:00 AM (on the button)!
