twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2014.02.18

I took The Boy to a public meeting held by the city to look into whether they're going to build the cycle lanes we've been working for. Ken asked a couple of questions, but he couldn't take much more than half an hour. We met the Councillor for our ward, and I met the Executive Director of Cycle Toronto. The information presented by the city was good, and I learned that the city has sensors in the street to detect bicycles. Who knew!

I'm pleased with Ken's interest in the whole thing. It's only what one could expect from a six year old, but it's there.
