No matter how eloquent, words can never convey my sense of loss over Alison’s death.  It is true of every parent who has lost a child.  There is comfort in knowing that we are not alone.  Still, this is a personal experience, and not one I would wish upon even my worst enemy.  Alison is [...]

Despite her limitations, Alison was a warm and loving human being in every sense of the word.  She truly loved absolutely unconditionally, and never hated anyone.  She did fear the many nurses who had to draw her blood or give  her shots…but she would just as quickly give them a smile and a hug. Ali was [...]

Eloquence escapes me when I talk or write about my late daughter Alison Elizabeth Boyd, or “Ali” as we called her.  I wish I could convey to you what a joy she was…how captivating her smile…how contagious her laughter.  Believe me, you have missed something special if you missed meeting and knowing Alison Boyd Ali [...]

I realize it is weeks after the fact, but I did promise an analysis of what went wrong with the Jason Pede misadventure through the mountains of Colorado in February. To refresh your memories, Jason Pede took a so called “shortcut” through the mountains of central Colorado in early February.  He was trying to cut [...]

My friend Jason Pede saved himself over the weekend of Feb 7th, after being stranded in the snowy mountains of Colorado for four days.  He took a “shortcut” that his cellphone GPS recommended and was confirmed by a local resident.  It almost cost him his life! Jason was transporting a rescue dog from southern California [...]

So!!  You’ve decided to become an oversize load escort.  You’ve gone out and bought all sorts of lights and flags and signs and all the other stuff you need to escort.  I’ve got news for you!  Believe it or not, just getting your escort vehicle set up and your equipment set up is the easy [...]

AT THE REQUEST OF ATTORNEYS REPRESENTING RANDY SORENSON,  I HAVE REMOVED CERTAIN SENTENCES AND PHRASES WHICH WERE STATED AS FACT.  I WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT I AM EXPRESSING MY OWN OPINION ON THESE MATTERS, BASED UPON MY OBSERVATIONS OF A SERIES OF EVENTS.  I CANNOT SAY WITHOUT QUESTION THAT THESE ARE FACTS, BUT [...]

I am home this week, following nearly six weeks of being involved in moving a 21foot oversize load from Rodeo, NM, to Houston, TX. This load was far more problematic than any with which I have been involved, and apparently the problems began LONG before I got involved.  They began moving this load back in [...]

We dropped our load this afternoon at the Climax Mine on top of Fremont Pass, north of Leadville, CO.  Now I am in Pueblo, CO, heading home. Our load was 27 feet wide.  That means that on a typical two lane road, the load hung over each shoulder.  We ran with four escorts-two up front [...]

We have spent the weekend in Colorado Springs, Co.  Our load is 27′ wide and therefore too wide to be allowed on the highways over the weekend. Tomorrow, we have to drive about 50 miles back to where we left it, and then we take it up into the high mountains southwest of Denver.  That [...]
