Was heading to a drs. appointment so could not stop. Was that someone from here with a carrier on a trailer at Hwy 15 and 401? (kingston) Cheers Brian

I passed through there this morning, having driven through my old haunts in Barriefield earlier in the week.

Alas, I had no carrier with me! I wonder how much I missed it by?

Default Carrier

That was me and my son bringing the Carrier home from Nova Scotia to Ontario. Quite the adventure. Balmy weather to minus 4 without the windchill, then freezing rain, snowed in and so on !

I will be posting some photos soon and hopefully you folks can help me identify some parts and tell me what is obviously missing.

The interesting part of the trip coming home was from old timers coming up to us while fueling up. I have possibly another couple lined up for extraction in August!

Jim
