If there is one weekend in the year to stay off the highways in Alberta, it’s May long. Always so many people with their new trailers pulling them for a significant distance for the first time. Nothin’ more frightening!

Laid up the groceries and beer today so I won't have to go downtown Canmore as it is a sh*t show on any given week day let alone a snowy May long week end. Almost time to sell and buy a fish camp in Sask.

Yep, drove from fox creek to Calgary last night. It's a **** show already. I wish I could've taken a picture of some of the scary stuff.
Trailer/RV education would go a LONG ways in this province.. But then again, so would driver education.
Stay safe everyone.

Yep x3. Thought I'd better go to Safeway yesterday to beat the Friday crowd. Wrong! I've never seen it so busy. I counted 18 people in the self check out line.

Just driving from the Pass to Edmonchuk for a weekend conference.
The guided missles are out in full force.
And we got snow here. Enjoy mud and trailer views kids.

Make sure with your first trailer to place all the heavy cargo as far forward in the trailer as possible! Never over the axles or distributed evenly and securely to keep to your vehicles rated tongue weight!

Also, make sure you ask the salesman if your vehicle can handle the trailer he is trying to sell you. That is the best way to add a couple k of towing capacity.

If he would have had the motor down just another couple of inches that wouldn't have happened...At least he had the 4-Ways on.
