You know how when you’re making the run from the town you live in to the town you want to get to and there’s this great big empty space in between, and you need, like, a snack and some gas to get you through? Like this?

Alluvial Post-Glacial Flood Plain

This is the Canadian Colonial solution: streets, infrastructure, golf courses,  gas stations and convenience stores, usually on the wrong side of 6 lanes of traffic, with the High Occupancy Vehicle Lane on the, hunh, right, and concrete barriers in between.

There is a more convenient way…

Gas

Snacks

Lodging

OK, not lodging, but it seems to warm the heart anyway.

Sometimes what you need is enough.
