That's what Adam and I call them anyway. The smelly double-trailer trucks travel slowly up and down Pine Canyon every day. I think they average about 20mph on a good day during their uphill journey, creating quite an annoyance for the locals, many of whom are accustomed to flying around the curves at 55+. The truck drivers are always nice enough to pull off the road when the shoulder is wide enough, but some people don't bother waiting. As soon as they have more than 20 ft of visibility, ZOOM! they pass, whether they're in a legal passing zone or not!
We've heard that the trucks haul waste sewage from the Seattle area and dump it in a field somewhere on the Plateau, but we're not sure where. For some reason, this has been an intriguing mystery to Adam and me. Where exactly do to they drop their load? Is the waste they're hauling wet; solid; dried; gelatinized? One of these days, we're going to follow one. We're hoping the driver will be willing to fill us in on the ins and out of hauling Seattle pooh. We get quite a kick out of what we imagine his reaction will be when we ask if we can watch. I seriously wonder if anyone else ever thinks of things like this.
