Slick, I believe he was right on the escarpment. He was only a couple miles form the US border as well.

That sounds about right. I used to do a lot of dirt biking on the escarpment back in the day.

There is a old bentonite quarry with some challenging slopes out there.

It was a pleasant change of scenery for a flatlander such as myself.

I had forgotten the name of the town where Ecusta based its operation from.

It came back to me yesterday, Tisdale.

Had some pretty good beer and burger specials at the local hotel!

No worries Sheldon, the backhoe business should soar for some years yet, if and when it slows you can retire.
