What a waste of resources, they should just turn them sideways and get a couple of big bikers to roll them! :)

Good series btw!

They did float them in........from Germany by ship.

Could not "land" them in Toronto.......Gardiner Expressway blocks any route from there.

You have to remember these loads are approx. 30 feet high.......the largest weighs in at a staggering 260,000 lbs (130 tons) with the truck.

Hey!

I was a little disappointed last night. The big beer cans hadn't turned the corner at Hwy 25 and Derry rd last night before  11:00 pm

I had to go to sleep.. This Morning Our GoGo bus had to detour from up to the 401 to 407 South to Derry rd.

It was around 5:30 am and the beasts were just turning the corner onto Trafalgar.

Tonight on the way home along Derry rd on the Bus. 6 Large beer cans were parked taking up the right lane just before the overpass on Trafalgar rd.

At least the neighbours got a few pics.

Neighbours also said that there was an Owl in our tree last night around 11:00 pm. Hmmm..

Napper:)

Looking at the interior of the vats...umm....raises an interesting philosophical question...would you panic if you were drowning in beer? And if drowned in beer, do malefactors go to heaven?

Birding takes my mind off stuff and it adds good life to a tuff life. It also helps me forget about my spine pain and stress.  Laugh, eat, be merry.  Anybody with extra $ may send me some as It will permit me to travel.
