Last sunset for the rusty old Buick Hearse. After all the last rides it gave, it went on its last, off to the crusher.

I had McSteel Salvage and Cleanup come in during March to do some much needed cleaning out of the wrecking yard. Excellent job and very clean. not much mess for me to pick up. A lot of cars and trucks went off to become new soup cans.

Got the official flag run up the pole on the loader. Now I’m ready to go stack some crap in piles.

This is what it looks like when somebody doesn’t slow down to 60km passing a tow truck.

The first car slowed down and the second car didn’t and plowed into the rear of the first.

I was doing a recovery and I was climbing out of the ditch from shoveling out the Ford truck and heard the smack as they hit on the far side of my tow truck and they went sliding by out of control and both landed in the ditch.

My cones were flying through the air as they went through them. Car parts were everywhere.

A huge thank you to the RCMP, Ambulance and Dixonville and Weberville fire departments that responded quickly and set up traffic control.

Remember, ALWAYS slow to 60km when passing ANY stopped emergency vehicle. On 2 lane highways both lanes slow down. It’s the law.

Went in the Berwyn Christmas parade today and I dragged one of our old tow trucks out of the bush and took it along for the ride.

It’s a 65 Dodge 500 with a Holmes wrecker on it and if anybody remembers it, back in the 70’s and 80’s it was run by Downtown Shell in Peace River

Well we made it. 30 years today since I towed the first customer car out of the ditch in a snow storm with the freshly built 1975 GMC tow truck I built.
