 Good morning everybody. We're here in London Ontario. This is where we got attacked by the gang of skunks last night. If you missed yesterday's video don't forget, go back and watch. I haven't been able to find them this morning yet to show you so I'm pretty sure they only come out at night so I think later on you and I we're gonna go hunting the skunks. We got to bring some law and order to this truck stop. Can't have gangs just marauding around harassing drivers late at night. Diesel. They could have gotten you. They could have gotten you. I just wanted to play with you man. Get with you fluffy. I know. I'm glad I caught you though before you got to him because he was I wasn't exactly looking and diesel was sort of moving towards him already then all of a sudden he bolted. I was able to stop him. Thank goodness for a leash right? It's another good reason for the leash. I know it's okay. It's okay man. Temptations. We all struggle with temptations. Get with you fluffy man. He's so cute. He wanted you go and play with him. Yeah so the story. I told the story yesterday at the end of yesterday's video. I'll let you go back and watch that but there is a group of skunks at least six or seven of them that came out last night and were aggressively harassing drivers who were going to the shower or for me when I was walking diesel. They're not scared of us. They walk towards you with their tails up demanding something but I don't speak skunks so I don't know what they want or I don't know what they wanted and I don't know where they went. They're still around here I guarantee it. They're off sleeping. They'll be back tonight. They'd be nervous. I'm not scared of skunks like I told you yesterday. I just really don't want to get sprayed and I've never seen them behave that way before but I also did mention it's 2020 so nothing really surprises me anymore. It was interesting to say the least. So we're here in London Ontario at the Flying J. I don't deliver until tomorrow morning so we're hanging out here for the day. Me and my beaned cup just finished editing the video for you. That's the one you watched yesterday. It turned out to be pretty long. I had that big spiel about the skunks at the end there like I was just saying and the vlog turned out to be over 30 minutes. I hope you guys are okay with that. Some of you I know don't like it to be that long and some of you want it to be longer so I can't please everybody so yesterday you got a long one. I'm not sure if today will be as long because we're not really doing anything. We're just sitting around here waiting for tomorrow and possibly hunting down skunks later. I also already know what some of the comments will be about and I haven't even released that video yet but I kind of know what to expect because I deserve it. I spent a good portion in the middle of yesterday's video talking about being healthy keeping your heart beating and beating the statistics of life expectancy in truckers. The life expectancy of truckers is about 65 which is terrible and I was saying that's a big thing to do with that is the fact that a lot of us don't get out of our trucks including myself. We eat bad food and we don't move and we don't get our hearts beating. We're not going to go into it again today because I lectured you enough yesterday and you're sick of it. I get it but I also realized at the end of the day I had the munchies. I was craving some sugar and some chips and so I went and got myself salt and vinegar chips and a couple of snacks and I don't do that every day just to say and the irony wasn't lost on me that that happened the same day I was telling you about being healthy. I did tell you that I'm not perfect okay. Every once in a while I like to treat myself a little bit and every once in a while comes around a little too often I know but I'm trying to be a good example at least by saying that I know we got to be healthier even though we're not. Even though I'm I struggle with my cravings for junk food I know I've got to do better and I try. I'm trying and I've gotten better over the years I think but always room for improvement and I want to encourage all of you to beat the odds let's raise that life expectancy up further than 65 let's go like maybe 85 maybe that'd be nice that means we all get to get out of our trucks at least once a day get our bodies moving you don't got to go for a run you don't got to go for a jog or do jumping jacks just get the body moving for at least a half hour or an hour if you can just walking nothing big just steady walking no stops for at least a half hour I challenge you okay I know we can't all do this in the winter time so before it gets cold everybody a half hour every day just get yourself moving doing something I'm gonna do it too and I'm gonna try to cut down on the junk food so I bought these locks for the back of my trailer it's just in the middle of opening them here now the reason being is when I cross the border I have that bolt seal on my trailer right I have to have that on there but I have eight deliveries on this load so at my first stop I cut the seal right and then I hold on to it just in case anybody wants to see the seal that was on the trailer no one has ever wanted to yet but I keep it till I'm finished the load anyways but for my next seven deliveries it takes a couple of days that means I'm parking overnight with a trailer that's unlocked for a couple of nights I've never had anything stolen off my trailer before never had anything thrown into my trailer but it does happen to others it's happened to others I've been fortunate enough that it doesn't so what I do when I don't have that bolt seal on there I want to put these these locks on the trailer just as in just that when I wake up in the morning I know people cut through them right but at least when I go and do my pre-trip in the morning I go to the back I can tell if someone has gotten into the trailer right because if my lock is cut I know uh-oh something happened to my trailer and then I can call the police or whatever needs to be done at that time and check to see if anything stolen or somebody you know stashed some drugs or something in my trailer if people are in there trying to get places they aren't usually supposed to go could be anything right so at least with the lock on there I go and do my pre-trip I go and check the lock if the lock is still locked and in place I know no one's opened my trailer nothing's happened to my freight if it's cut well just discuss that so I've got two of them these aren't exactly the ones I like to use I like to use more of the weatherproof ones like sure this one says like where does it say rust and weather resistant that does not apply to Canadian weather okay these locks in winter time rust up and then you got a problem because then they don't unlock when you go up the salty roads everyone's starting up their trucks around me right now that's okay it's a truck stop so these will work for a while but then I like to get the real weatherproof ones that have the lock covered that way the salt and grime doesn't get into the lock itself and then it doesn't seize up on you nearly as quickly none of them last forever but I got two here so that'll that'll be good as soon as I take the seal off the trailer I'm gonna throw those on and just make sure you don't lose the keys and attach them to your key ring for your truck or something I have no idea where those skunks went they're obviously hiding until the Sun goes down it could be in here anywhere but they were at the other side of the parking lot so this would be a rival gang on this side I guess I don't know if they have that much territory I see a trail here this could be a bad idea we're gonna see where it goes hopefully no skunks pop out at us come on diesel stay close but stay close no skunks no skunks watch this is probably the skunks trail and I'm like walking straight up to their den chasing me around London all kinds of little animal trails around here I want to get through into that parking lot back there because then I can get to the street you know okay let's just get through here oh I guess the people who work in these buildings here probably use that trail to go to the convenience store they're flying J to get a coffee and stuff on their lunch break that makes sense well like I said the skunks were on the other side of the parking lot anyway last night so I'm pretty sure that's where their den is back there so if you come to London flying J be aware there's a gang of skunks that are very aggressive at the back of the parking lot by the blue beacon that's where they were chasing me yesterday I'm pretty sure they only come out at night though so this way I can get out to this industrial zone here which is very quiet I like to walk through these industrial zones because no traffic right and it's the weekend it's Sunday this neighborhood is nice and quiet I don't got to worry about cars and other people distracting this guy it's nice day for a walk the leaves are still on the trees here my mom sent me pictures or sent the family pictures of their campsite back home in Manitoba looked like pretty much all the leaves had fallen off already sad so when we go home it'll be full on fall there might not even be any leaves left on the trees by the time I get home my first appointment tomorrow is here in London at 8 a.m. and then I've got an appointment in Brantford at 10 a.m. I believe and then from there I head up to North Bay no Oshawa and then North Bay and then another town Anna something and then Ottawa and then Dorval I think that's my row random pipes just sticking out of the ground here what's this there's a snails in there isn't that interesting so yeah we can't go to bed too late tonight but I did sleep in so I'm gonna have a hard time falling asleep I'm sure that's okay that's why we go on these walks gets us tired out and like I was saying we got to do something right I don't like running and jog I'm not a runner but as long as I keep moving I feel better about myself and I feel better the next day just need a better mood 20 bucks full meal it's not bad for up here anyway diesel I know I smell like grilled chicken or grilled steak or but I even have I had country fried chicken I smell like fried steak it was country fried steak that's about I don't know it's my usual I just go in there and I just order my usual I'm on autopilot when I go in there but that is the day today tomorrow we got to make a bunch of deliveries how many deliveries do we got going on tomorrow ask the the load gods here shall we they gave me all these messages to follow okay so bear with me here fingers aren't working okay tomorrow 8 a.m. is our first delivery then tomorrow 10 a.m. is our second delivery in Brantford then our next delivery is at 12 30 in Oshawa that's a big one got two deliveries in Oshawa than I have another one in Oshawa right yeah Oshawa at 1 o'clock guess we got four deliveries so far tomorrow and then our next delivery is in North Bay and that's the next day so we got a little bit of a little bit of stuff to do tomorrow it's good it'll keep us busy that makes the day go by faster that makes it feel like I get home faster and continue playing my civilization game here I am once again the United States of America trying to take over
