    I prefer unpaved roads.
    Would be perfectly Content only hauling logs, and fuel to loggers. More bush road that way, than paved road. The past 7 years, i have been mostly responsible for who hauls what. I book myself some of everything, feel its only fair that I also haul everything. But I book myself more logs, and fuel, then other stuff. It hasn't gone unnoticed by my Papa, who asked a couple of years ago if they were my favorites to haul. To which I answered yes. He responded with his being happy about it, because a couple others hated hauling logs and fuel. I was 90% hauling logs the last while before I got hurt. Since my Dad took over covering for me after my fall, and he hates hauling logs, he made my little sister go haul them, and he also hates hauling heavy equipment, so he put another driver on the lowboy, and my dad took the belly dump, which is his favorite. My dad will do anything to not haul logs out, or fuel into the bush lol
    He started working on a logging show ate age 15, and 47 years later tries to distance himself from it as much as possible.
    Today I booked him 2 loads of fuel to a mine, he doesn't hate that, and the belly dump job ended for this year.

    Change Logging to Logistics.

    When a transportation co has the name to "Trans" in it- cracks me up.
