Trans-Canada shut down for two weeks in PEI

A Timber Wolf lies dead on the Trans Canada Highway near the turn-off between Kenora and Fort Frances Junction(17-West). The wolf was struck early that morning by a Transport Truck. I was shocked to see the death of such a beautiful animal laying on the highway. I pulled over to pay my respects and laid down tobacoo beside the wolf. The image had bothered me all the way home, it's sad to see the end result when man and nature collide.

This is a road construction warning from Pomona, California. I passed by it one afternoon and snapped a photo. The next day it said, "Road Construction Ahead".

This is a photo taken in Pomona California. The next day I passed by and the creative writing project had been corrected.

This was the first time we actually got to drive over this bridge and it really has shortened and improved this section of the highway through the Kicking Horse Canyon.

Took this photo off an overpass thought it would give the long-exposed photo some perspective.

Good story...

However, with the recent formation of Tropical Storm Kyle today this area will be in the bullseye yet again by late Sunday. I bet they'll be closing it again, as it looks like the storm should be even stronger than when Hanna hit. We'll see what happens.

After many miles driving North on the Trans-Canadian, we welcomed the chance to take the scenic wooded trail down to the Alexandra Bridge. The view of the Frasier River and the Spence Bridge downstream, most worthwhile!

My photo was taken on a 2 lane windy road along the east coast of Taiwan. No, the workers did not wear coolie hats, just regular construction helmets.

I felt this picture was more about the clouds than the highway when I took it, but whatever :P

Pete Fuoco was a timekeeper and first aid man with a construction crew that was building the western loop of the Big Bend Highway. Pete was impressed with the human like characteristics of a large Cedar stump at Mile 80 on the highway. Working in the evenings and spare time he carved out a human face starting with a chainsaw and finishing with a variety of chisels, etc.

The section forman was so impressed with it that he helped organize a "Guillotine Crew" who sawed the head off its stump and moved it to Canoe where it stood overlooking the highway for many years.

The head was moved from Canoe to Revelstoke after the Roger's Pass section of the Trans Canada Highway was completed.

To preserve the 1000 year old interior, the head was encased in fibreglass and then painted.

His name is Lounx, and he's a real construction worker who gets his jollies by going to furry conventions and dressing up as a lynx. In this photo, he was attending Morphicon in Worthington, OH (northern suburb of Columbus) last May.

Stuck on Highway #69 part of Trans-Canada for many hours in August of 2007 near Nobel, Ontario. There was a fatal accident up ahead and the highway was closed until it was cleared and investigated. Such a hot day, but a good way to meet people in line!

Ponce, Puerto Rico - This road has been closed for more than 6 months, I'm not sure if it's already opened since I haven't been in the city in a couple of months. It leads to a funeral home and some doctors offices. This road was closed so that an underground pipe could be fixed, but due to poor planing and bad construction this road has been closed for about six months. This isn't the only road like this in Puerto Rico, a lot of the roads and streets are always under construction for an extended period of time. What might take two weeks to fix usually takes months. Most of this is contributed to the current political administration on the island.
