Travelling to Toronto (for Ad Astra)

[dagibbs]

Since it seems nobody in Ottawa wants to travel to Toronto with me for Ad Astra this coming weekend, and since the weather looks to be good (as long as Thursday's rain sticks to Thursday, rather than slipping over to Friday), it looks like I'll be riding the motorcycle down. It may be a bit chilly, though.

Brr. I assume you have a plan to get the banker's box worth of books home?

foms and con_girl are renting a car and driving down from Ottawa. They'll be arriving earlier/staying longer than me, so not travelling with me, but are willing to transport some books for me. Well, they say it's ok as long as the rear of the car doesn't noticeably sink under the load of books. I think the list I've selected is within that criteria. That's the plan, at least.

Um...you don't have a banker's box of books for me, in addition to the books carynb has for me, do you?

Sadly, no. I was just helping carynb pack, and I saw your books. And then I pictured you trying to balance them somehow on a motorcycle. The vision did not include much speed. *g*

Bungee cords!

I've put two 50lb bags of kitty litter on the back of my motorcycle. How much worse can a banker's box of books be?

Oh, and I've got electric heat to help deal with the Brr.
