Pensylvania or bust


There are monsters up in the mountains and they are killing the animals there, the RCMP are trying to control the monsters but it looks like the monsters are winning.

Jan wont let me have one of these, loads of trunk (boot) space but not so easy to park at Walmart
A Truck stop in Washington


This is going to have to be a quick post coz things have been happening pretty quick around here:

3045 and i made good time getting back from Portland (very good actually) and were racing towards Edmonton then the computer beeped and i got a message to spin round and head for Lethbridge and rescue a load from Brooks.

Well i spun round (in the middle of the road) and when i got back to the Lethbridge yard there was Montedarlo (Phil). He had broken down and limped into town with a load from Brooks and it was going to Pensylvania, it had to be there for Wednesday.

I dropped my trailer, we had a little chat, very nice to meet you at last Phil, then we moved his trailer axles and i went home for the night.

Woke up this morning and its going to be another hot load, not sure if i got enough hours to get it there but time will tell.

Life on the edge eh?

  3. are you going to stay on 90 thru wisconsin? I hate going to Pennsylvania from Iowa because it's not far enough to have a good weeks with just a turn around but seems to take just long enough to keep from doing a short run when I get back. Guess i'll just have to move further away.
