No, that's ok. We got to find out that ag87 is a Caltrans consultant. The next question is he a consultant in any other state, especially Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico or Utah? Plus, we got to all learn more about the 5. Mostly no. I've done a small amount of rail work in Arizona and New Mexico. Did you work on the BNSF rail job in Fort Sumpter a few years ago? We bid that one, but no soap. |

No. When I switched companies I inherited a CM contract for the RailRunner in ABQ. My involvement was mostly approving timesheets for a couple of inspectors. In AZ, I did some work on BNSF's intermodal facility in Phoenix. |

I-5 and the halcyon days of yore...When I went to OSU, I made the drive between Santa Cruz, CA and Corvallis (and the reverse) three times a year. I developed a true love for I-5, especially the stretch between Redding and the exit to Corvallis. NorCal and Southern Oregon are enough to make a man religious and those drives are some of the most nostalgic of my life.
Going north, I would start from my parent's house in Santa Cruz and it was about a 15 minute drive before I would hit a gas station in a town called Scotts Valley and fill up for the first leg of the trip. Going south, it was a similar drive (distance wise) leaving Corvallis and I'd fill up at the gas station where 34 met I-5. I always made those drives in silence; no music, just the wind. Going north, I would leave the gas station and get on this crazy stretch of road called Highway 17. Going south, I would get on I-5.
As soon as my tires hit either of those two highways, I would turn "Highway to Hell" up to 11 and smile...
