The class covered blood and breathing and airways and broken bones and cuts and choking and CPR and slings and compression bandages and more.
It has refreshed my first-aid training from years ago. I knew it all, but the CPR - the technique had seeped away from my brain.
When it was all over, I got a coffee from a Tim Horton's shop around the corner from the hospital.
I headed back in the general direction of home, and then turned north when I remembered that I had brought my new camera along with me.
The views looked nice and so I turned on my camera and drove a bit until I found a nice looking area.
A little snow was falling and it was a few degrees below freezing.
Bundled up in my shearling cap, warm gloves and my super warm alpine coat, I ended up in a corn field. The smell of pig manure blew over me and I looked around the horizon trying to find a pig farm.
After a few minutes, it became apparent that the farmer had sprayed pig manure on the field as a fertilizer.
I figured that out once I had walked about 30 feet into the field.
Cheers,
Mungo
