Beautiful Canadian fall.

Nothing better then trucking in the fall. The calm before the storm? You bet! Winter is on its way, so now I brace for the chill to come...

Take a rest from trucking!

Day trip into Quebec to get some work done, with the help of a friend.

I still love my Subaru, even if it is old and has high mileage (287.800 kms), but it does have to be babied sometimes...


Mmm... Nothing like a Subaru boxer engine, nice and flat. Easy to work on.

It needed a new ignition coil.

On the ferry, crossing the Ottawa river into Ontario.

Approaching sunset on the river.

Trucking on!

Montreal transport yard. Front seat view to the airport runway. I could stay there for hours...









Three cops in a row, awaiting in ambush. Hwy 401 Montral-Toronto.

I've been everywhere...

A Renault 18 in North America... A very rare sight!

Sheridan, Wyoming. Took the wrong exit looking for the Wal-Mart.

Double rainbow, west of Denver CO, on I 70.

Awesome.

It came out of the sky...
(Near the Oklahoma-Kansas border, on I-35)

Where I've been lateley.

From Toronto to Edmonton, and then from Edmonton to Vancouver.

Sliding my tridems to the back, for a more comfortable ride. The fifth wheel also got slid to the back. At the scale house in Cochrane, Ontario

West of Edmonton, on the Yellowhead Highway. First time at Jasper National Park.


North of Kamloops, on HWY 5. Nice view in a lay by.

On the Coquihalla south of Kamloops, H&R trouble. Steep grade must be to blame.

Trucking in the USA

I didn't take many pictures, but i did film a whole lot. So keep your eyes open for my new videos coming up soon in YouTube (www.youtube.com/rogertrucker).

Driving through Denver. Enjoying the view!


Mexican transportation in New Mexico, USA



Now look at this crazy trucker: stops in the middle of a major railway crossing, and the train comes... blasting inches from his trailer! Like the train's gonna stop!

It wouldn't have been the first time in Exel Meats, in Friona, Texas...

Many places... On the road to Moses Lake, Washington.

Enjoying the ride, as I finally installed the satellite radio.


Driving through the Frank Slide, along the Crow Nest Highway. Not in the mood to stop, but Javi did (www.doingmyway.blogspot.com).



The biggest truck in the world, in Sparwood, BC. But it's not working, so it's not REALLY a truck... It's more like a statue, a decoration!

US HWY 95, in Idaho, just across the Canadian border.

Near Moses Lake, in a truck stop.
