Hay,
Incase its slipped you by Chrismas has arrived!!
As U can imagine a vital part of the festive season is the need to replenish teh Uhrmerican way of life with all the little goodies they need for Xmas.
Winter has the peg full in its little hands as a few photos will show
K.22nd Dec Scaled, slid and sent loaded and leaving, Border was Pembina again so no bubbles.... yet! Teh broker was awake this time,so the frozen hog bits were on time,and we got our back load to winnipeg.Now as drivers are a bit more respected here and 85386 neede some xmas fuel,the flying J in Fargo was the next port of call.(FREE xmas diner)Well all i can say is the fuel was ok.
Into the Peg again on th 25th drop and hook 4 calgary LTL,it was a bit of a funny feeling,everbody else is eating drinking and being merry,while yours truly is keeping the north american economy from falling apart,still beggers can't be choosers, so Calagary it is.
Droped and hooked in the yard down to the kill plant in brooks and hooked a trailer for Sioux falls.Cleared in sweetgrass and plodded on into Montana.
After a live unload at sioux falls,he travel agent felt sorry for me and decided I needed a little sun to brighten my day or days,so its off to Liberty on the kansas border,770 miles empeety
The Kill plant was in full blow but guess what no Trailer 4 little old me, so dropped the reefer and slid over 2 a hillbilly type truckstop called 'the chuckwagon'
Next day got hooked up and headed of to The french dudes in montreal crossing in Windsor with an Mcap.
Weather is now abooot 12deg+ so its window down and arm out time!
Got there,dropped and hooked ltl for Calgary but gotta drop it in the yard at Winnipeg,as Isa got days of booked,as i sorta bumble along in the snow minding my own and thinking nice thoughts towards winnipeg it occurs to me that something is up!
slowed down a little and good that I did
Mr I'm asleep at the wheel here, was crawling around at 10 kmh,no lights,no 4 ways nothin.
new rolls of toilet paper were issued and after trying to converse with Mr sleepy head on the CB he tells me that in Pakistan there is no snow!!
very enlightend 85386 and her driver reached the peg.
Saw Big Don who was fueling and getting ready for his kansas thung,parked her up filled in the paperwork and cleared off.
Of to the mehico border next so don't miss the next episode.
