Hello to my valued clients and customers!!

During this past year, I have had the pleasure of serving so many wonderful people and hauling their freight!!

I’ve have been asked to haul varying items, from vintage vehicles, to farm machinery (including fully restored machinery), construction equipment, sand, an antique wooden canoe and everything in between!!

Many of you have become valued repeat clients, also referring friends, family and business associates my way.

I truly cannot adequately express, how grateful I truly am!!!

Now with that being said, I will be taking a well deserved vacation with my amazing wife, absolutely kid free (teenagers 😉)…Yay for us!! 😁

I will be back in my truck around April 24th. Then hit the road once more eastbound toward Winnipeg (with that cool canoe). From there I am tentatively booked to North Carolina. Depending on how large that freight is, I may have some extra room left over! After that, back to Canada, then I plan to head to Texas for another repeat client!!

So, May is starting to look very promising!! You may message me if you have anything you’d like included, or shipped. However, I won’t be able to answer until home, as I have promised myself & my wife, a complete break from business!! 😉

So I will leave you all some cool photos of my many adventures!!

Cheers!!

On Saturday I came across a fellow pilot driver, John Kleen of Kleen’s Pilot Car Services, that broke down, along with his load up in Grassland. Unfortunately his truck parts weren’t available until today at the earliest.

I’ve been in almost the identical position as John and another driver helped me. So, I felt I could pass that forward to them. Besides, if I can help, I wouldn’t leave a fellow driver stranded without at least checking if they were alright.

The semi driver, Mika of Bowline Logistics Ltd., was accepting that he’d lose the time, but he was as cool as a cucumber. I asked him how many log hours he had left to drive to Ft McKay. I also asked if the permit allowed travel at night if needed.

Since I was not far from my destination and not unloading until Monday, I offered my Pilot services, so they could complete their job as scheduled. I dropped my trailer and left it with John, then piloted Mika to Ft. McKay. Then turn and burned back to my trailer in Grassland.

In the end, two fellow drivers, their companies and their customers were kept satisfied. The big plus for me, is that I made some very valuable connections in the industry!
