2009, Dec, 5 - `10 Feb. 20

During the winter of 2009 / 10 I had my tractor, & trailer, leased to a company called `CS Transport' which was situated in New Westminster, B. C. Canada.

I had an `07 Volvo conventional pulling a 53 Ft. Utility reefer taking loads to towns in Calif.

Most of the loads I hauled were plywood from a plant in Richmond, B. C. destined for various towns in California.

Returning to Canada I carried produce; carrots, cucumbers, etc that I picked up in towns throughout Calif. for Loblaw’s in Calgary, Alberta.

After unloading in Calgary I would backtrack, empty, to Lethbridge where I would load yogurt for the new Loblaw’s warehouse South of Langley, B. C.

The following are some of the pictures I took, through the windshield, along the route.

I-5 OREGON to DUNNIGAN

On this trip I had a load of plastic trays that were made in Mission, B. C.

I was taking them to an aquaculture farm North of San Francisco.

I turned West, North of Sacramento, onto Hwy 505.
