My 2nd Vacation Time in Ajax, Ont. in August 2016--Sat.Aug.20,2016 (DAY 15 of RIO 2016)

I called Dave (Burton) and asked for a ride to run some errands I had to do.  First, I went to the TD Bank and deposited two cheques into my account.  Then, I went shopping at Food Basics to get a few groceries (Homewood Suites provides its guests with a small kitchen, including a fridge and freezer).  After that, I went to Shoppers Drug Mart – the one I usually deal with – and finally filed a change of address at the post office, which covers Dave, Kyle, Brent, and me since we all lived at 10 Billingsgate at one time or another.  It was costly ($112.00), but it had to be done.  Finally, Dave took me back to my hotel which is now my home-away-from-home for the next three weeks or so.
