Lethbridge Or Bust






Left Saskatoon and sent a sattelite message (second one in 2 days actually) just to remind people that i was due into Edmonton and needed a load down to Lethbridge so i could have my 4 days off.

Yes you read correctly i just took 4 days off, i think i deserve it coz ive only had 2 days off since christmas and i got tons of stuff to do at home.

Any way Peter (Hi Peter, i know you read this blog) came up trumps again and even as i crossed the border into Alberta there was a load waiting for me. i drove into the Edmonton yard, swapped trailers (20 minutes including pretrip checks) and i was rolling again.

Thanks Peter, great job again buddy !!!

I didnt spare the horses heading south, 3045 was on top form, cruise set at max, nose pointing south, we didnt even stop for more fuel. just over 5 hours later we were sat at the brand new Husky in Lethbridge, 3045 slurped a couple of hundred bucks' worth of "go juice" and we stuck a few litres in the trailer too then dropped the trailer in the H&R yard and signed off.

Jan turned up and that was it till Friday...........................................

The pics are of driving into Edmonton, notice all the oil refineries and look at the state of that road.
