Stilly, the post office has been threatening to strike since May. The barbecue cover is a rugged nylon material with heavy plastic handles here and there, not to mention buckles and straps. It’s quite heavy. I figure that the gas cost about what the postage would have, and I didn’t have to wrap it up.

But no, I didn’t do anything else on that trip. The suburbs of Hamilton aren’t exactly a tourist Mecca.
