In contrast to the photograph from yesterday's blog post, this one does not appear dark and dreary. Yesterday was so much of a washout, in fact, I didn't notice there was an eclipse. In this part of British Columbia the sun would've only been about 20% blocked at best. So, we didn't miss much due to the rainy day.
Things seem to have perked up today. I was able to put out a load of laundry to dry in the sun and breeze. Earlier on a trip uptown, we first stepped foot into our new bank. We were switched over to RBC when HSBC sold off its Canadian holdings effective this month. It was a fairly painless process even though it sounded absurdly complicated. We stopped in in order to use ATMs to change our card PINs to our former choices. Jay also bought some some grains and whatnot at our health food store. We bought a few things at the Walmart too as we were so close to the mall.
