Quick no-car update

We're waiting for the #2 by Crowchild Trail to take us home.
Conclusion: transit is super convenient when you have a planned route
to your destination ( as we had for out trip to visit a friend at the
hospital today), but it's not as great on a Sunday when you're waiting
for that connection that only comes on the half hour.

Fortunately, the weather is nice and we don't have anywhere to be
(except for the post-apocalyptic wastelands is Washington DC).

Still, we're thinking the no-car lifestyle remains doable. Transit is
working, we have only had need of a car a few times, and cabs are
always an option (which we haven't been taking since we might as well
use our car if we have it--something we've only done twice).

I was pleased to find out that a co-worker of mine hasn't had a car for
a few years and she lives in our neighbourhood. Interesting...

Is that the bus I see?
