Dear Editor:
On Monday, Sept. 14, a large group of senior hikers were going to Stanley Park for a day of walking.
On parking the car at Second Beach, I tried to pay a meter for the approximately four hours we would be in the park. I inserted my card and punched what I thought were the correct buttons when I was delivered a ticket for one hour at $3.25. Frustrated, I tried again with the same results.
Fortunately one in our group got me the four hours that I needed. So I am out $17.50 for four hours and I now have a crook in my neck from trying to read an unlighted screen through my bifocals. Lord Stanley is writhing in his grave at the over-commercialization of his dream.
