Trip

I am a little behind in my posts. This one took place in November 2009.

In November I again had the opportunity to travel the Blackwater Road between Quesnel and Prince George. This trip again amazes me as to the different standards there are in the level of maintenance and construction of roads through out our province.

The roads I have experienced in the Prince George/Quesnel area are all well constructed, wide and with a surface that can be maintained. And, my favourite, cattle guards are done properly. The approach is graded level with the road.

There was snow on the road, not unfamiliar at this time of year. What surprised me more then anything was, and get this, "every logging truck I approached slowed down and moved over. This left much less of a snow cloud (dust) and improved my safety on the road.

A lesson that could be learned down here.

Drive safely
