Got back from Montreal today.

Left about 3:50, little later than I hoped, but DareDevil wasn't going to look at the 944 so not to bad.

Bit of a hassle at customs.

"Are you a US citizen?"
"Yes."
"Where were you born."
"What does it look like I come from Bangledesh or something?"

Wouldn't mind but the fecking Quebecois in front of me sailed through.

About 6:00 I faded fast and had to take a nap. After waking up I tend to do a lot of off key singing.

Perfect timing on my Friend Sue coming to pick me up. Dropped off the car, went to Outback for a little Dinner. After dinner was when I realized I'd left my cellphone in the car.

Drove back to the airport, found cell phone.

Drove home. Got out of car.

Where are the house keys.

Searched all my bags. Pretty sure it was still in the Focus Rental car. Drive back to the airport, search car, can't find it.

Back seat flips up, something I had noticed earlier. Flip it up, there they are. Thank Jeff.

It's now 11:30 when I get home, to find a note that my water supply is testing positive for Coliform.

Bout 20 minutes.

Nope Manchester. And I can go the whole way to the airport on backroads, no stop signs or nothing.

Still a royal pain.

There's a place in Ontario that sells UV systems for a couple hundred bucks. They work.

Thanks, I'd be happy to do something like that. But it's not my call. Condo Association does it, they installed a chlorinator which should be as good.

I talked to the testing guy, he said that my unit has the least of the problem, as I'm farthest from the problem. I'm also at the highest level, as is my well. THe haven't found any Fecal Coliform yet, so they say.

Think when I get back from DC/NY/Atlanta I'm going to install an under sink filter anyways.
