There’s a paper mill not far from here (Pee-YOO!) so we see the occasional chip dispenser. They’re building a lot of houses down at the end of my road (Yay.) so they’re cutting a lot of big oak and maple trees. Getting behind one of those bad boys always gives me that “Final Destination” feeling. So special.

We see them once in a while here, though most of our mills are up north. The funniest part was my constantly cursing husband….

We have huge trucks that haul slag around here all day every day. The windshield repair places love it….

In Canada, or at least in Alberta, such a truck has to be covered. Usually they just blow the chips into a trailer and hook two trailers behind a cab.
We have two mills in town, one for pellets and one for chipboard.

Technically this one did have a cover, but it was too small and not properly secured.

No kidding. Where’s a cop when you need one?

We have a quarry down the road from us (irony – it’s located on Quarry Road) and there are trucks going in and out of there all the time. The local authorities frown upon them not being totally tied down, and are thankfully aggressive in pulling those drivers over where loads are not secure. We give the windshield repair folks enough business just from cars whizzing by our state and interstate roads, we don’t need the quarry to also add to that carnage.

We have lots of farms here. The only thing I have to worry about being hit with in our town is manure.
