Something nice about Canada.

More snow, but yet interesting.

As usual, I had my share of snow while at home in Ottawa. It snowed slow, but 24 hours non stop, so it got really covered. After plowing the street and the parking lots (the condo corporation takes care of that), I caught a fleet of dumper trucks with drawbar trailers lining up, and the CATERPILLAR bulldozer was shoveling up the mountains of snow into the waiting trucks. I took these pictures just as I was leaving for a trip, off to get my truck.

Tridem for a change

The winter is raging, and for a change I was given a load on a tri-axle trailer. Buisness as usual, except for the extra weight.

Scaling in Belleville, Ontario.

Longlac, Ontario. Coffee stop.

Canadian winter roads.

The weekend Javi arrived in Canada ( www.doingmyway.blogspot.com ), as expected we got hit by a snow storm. Because of an accident on the main route, I got detoured, lost my way (there were no signs), and got stuck. In an unplowed road.






After being rescued by the snow plow...

WINTER TRUCKING IN CANADA

I am thinking of stopping my blog. I don't have any feedback, so you can imagine how I feel... I have an account on facebook (Roger Escuain, the only one) and one on Youtube (rogertrucker). You could follow my travels from any one (I recommend both).
But here are some original photos of my last trip, so you can comment on them.

Across the praries, in Manitoba. A lot of cars spun out in the ditch.



I helped this Russian driver clear the road after he hit this cow-moose on the Trans-Canada HWY, north of Sue-ste Marie, Ontario.


Cheers, and keep on trucking!!

About trucks and expensive cars.

Last week I had the chance of being trained to haul cars. So here are some pictures of the cars I hauled in three days. Well, all of the cars. And I drove them all. You know, taking extra long to get the car into the truck, eh!

The Peterbilt 387, just like the one I usually drive.
