Determined not to miss out on another gorgeous Kitimat day, I packed the dog into the car and drove to Forest Avenue where we took a 40 minute stroll. We detoured into this log holding yard which had piles and piles of absolutely perfect logs. I dared to hope that maybe these weren't destined for China since I'm under the impression that those (completely raw) logs are trucked straight to Minette Bay and put on a self loading barge which then travels to the U.S. in some cases but more often to Japan and China. While driving on Highway 37 we've all come to cringe as every 5 or 10 minutes another truck races south to dump their load of our beautiful raw, raw logs.
Taking our jobs with them.
