Memorable Trips

memorable trips: I started out in April on the No. 1 Spring Garden, revisiting my old stomping ground near Oxford Street and Quinpool Road. Nine memorable trips later, I was stoked for a sunny August ride on Route 10 to Westphal, an area I ve never seen before. Ten for 10, I thought and a new adventure. Perfect, according to The Chronicle Herald. Instead, after visits to a walk-in clinic and the QEII emergency department, emerging with two prescriptions and a diagnosis of a pinched nerve, recovery time uncertain, here I sit at home, ice pack around my neck, an armchair traveller venturing into the realm of bus trips past and This is the 10th column in my On the Bus series, and its about a journey I never expected to take. But the morning I d planned to take the No. 10, I was stopped in my tracks by a piercing pain near my left shoulder blade that pulsed its way down my left arm. Then it got worse. After a few days off work brought no improvement, I sought outside help, telling myself with ebbing hope that there would still be time to take my anniversary bus trip. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
