Busy, Busy, Busy
Well things are picking up again (whew!). I have taken a load of pipe bends to Fort McMurray and then loaded some scrap metal for the ride home. After that I took another load of cell phone towers and equipment to Fort St. John and Fort Nelson. I then loaded some scrap steel bales for the ride home. Once again I messed up and ended up being heavy on my drives and had to wait for scales to close so I could get home to deliver. Wish I’d quit that as one day that mistake is going to cost me dearly. Always trying to get that extra few pounds for more pay. The weather has been just awesome for the past two weeks now. A little moisture in Fort McMurray where I had to load the scrap metal. It was a bit muddy there and I had to get pulled out with a cat. Also ran into a forest fire just outside 70 mile. It looks like it was a bad one as a lot of ground was burned and they were still putting out spot fires as I went by. Apparently the road was closed for a while before I got there. I took some pictures (see below). After unloading the scrap steel bales in the morning, I will be going back to the yard and hooking onto a preloaded trailer full of pipe bends for Christina Lake. Bye for now.
