No, HG is not referring to a fine bowel movement. HG is speaking of a waste disposal facility known in the vernacular as “the dump”. They are usually grim and foreboding places. And, smelly. When in New Mexico, HG delivers the month’s household garbage to “the dump” in the Jacona neighborhood on route 502. It is the one place in The Land of Enchantment where HG is not greeted with smiles and friendly courtesy. Contrast this with the waste disposal facility (HG feels it would denigrate it by calling it “the dump”) in Dingwell Mills, Prince Edward Island. The manager/cashier is an attractive, smiling, curly headed woman. She warmly welcomes HG/BSK and Toby, The Wonder Dog. The principal attendant is another friendly greeter (and helps unload HG/BSK car if it’s very full ). Toby loves to
come here. That’s because the intelligent dog knows that before leaving the manager will present him with an excellent dog treat. Typical PEI. Typical Canada. HG/BSK and Toby will join in Canada Day, July 1. Glad to be in the northern democracy, home of the NBA champs.
