From Alex Emond in eastern Alberta: "Here's a patina'd truck, bound for Quebec Not exactly a trailer queen, but. I talked to the guy who bought it, near Medicine Hat. He wasn't planning on buying a truck, but it happened, and he rented a trailer and it's going home with him. He and his wife were on holiday and went to the auction at a farm near his wife's relatives place. I suspect that there will continue to be auctions after such a poor year, and more old trucks will surface and find new owners. So it goes."
Trucks, cars, highways, landscape, good writing. "You cannot travel on the path, before you have become the Path itself."
