 Well, this place sure packed up. It's so nice to end your day early Wow, I'm rarely ever an early bird and getting going early is stopping early, but I sort of like it Tons of parking for me at the end of my day and I get out of here before everybody else gets out of here Get out on the highway. I love mornings. I just hate waking up. Actually, you know what? as I say it's It's gotten better I used to hate waking up early in the morning But I kind of like it now. It's like the air is fresher Get a watch the sunrise Get out on the road enjoy my morning and by the time the day gets going. I'm already half done my work day I can sort of enjoy my evening at the end. It's not so late That works out. So today's a big day diesel You back there. What's going on today? Was that are we going home? Hey, you excited? Why do you hate the camera so much this thing must make some kind of like high-pitched noise that I can't hear that he can hear or something Because you were so excited a minute ago and every time I put the camera on you everyone thinks you're so sad man. I Just hate the camera And I like my pillow Bouncing off the walls as soon as I start vlogging he goes and lays down I don't think he likes to be on YouTube. He likes you guys He just I don't think he likes the camera. I don't like to be in the spotlight And we shy guy man shy guy Okay, well then I won't put you on YouTube Let's get going. Let's get out on the road and let's go home eight hours of driving. I don't nine hours eight hours to the border Put the seatbelt on so I don't fall out Turn the volume up So it warns me when I have scales coming And then I got my breakfast right here Got my coffee right here I'm hoping that that coffee is more than flavored water. No lights off in the back so we're gonna do a little tug test just to you know a piece of mind make sure the trailer won't fall off and There is attached and start rolling forward and brakes release That is the final part of my pre-trip as I roll away. There we go. I'm excited. I'm excited Even though Brits gonna be at work today when I get home, maybe I'll stop in and say hi to her at work On the way home, but probably go home and mow the lawn. Oh, don't act like you're not excited We're gonna go mow the lawn Okay, so to interstate 94 this way case we go straight, but we're gonna stop first Let the good tourists through let the family on the way to school through Wait, no schools closed now still isn't it? I would know that if I had kids One day I'll be in the loop So now that the fertility clinic speaking of kids The fertility clinics are reopening in Manitoba as far as I know So we should be able to get back on track with Hopefully getting a kid of our own soon Fingers crossed. We'll see Excuse me, but give me about the green light green means go. Let's go We're on back there. Oh my peanut butter fell off the shelf Well, how about that diesel? Might have to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich later now Where do we go? West I-94 this way Green means go Alright, I shall go let's get on the freeway man full power We're not very heavy. It's a pretty light load. So I can't even really feel that I have freight in the trailer Which is nice. I don't have to struggle up the hills. I should have cleaned my windshield shoot one thing I forgot Coming in coming in hot Thank you. Good sir made some room for me dive directly into construction alright What a way to start the day So like I said eight hours to the border another hour and a half up to our yard from there and Then just got to load some stuff into the pickup not too much because I'm only going home for a night I go home for tonight and then tomorrow evening. I got a head towards Okatauks, Alberta, which is south of Calgary, Alberta Got to deliver that first thing Monday morning and this truck's got to be back Tuesday This thing's got to get safety like I was telling you yesterday Gotta go into the shop to get safety and then it looks like I'm gonna be home for a week after that Which isn't wasn't exactly the plan. I wanted to be home for like four or five days I'll probably four four days for our fertility appointments and stuff make sure that we get it get there, but Since this truck needs a safety needs to be home a few days earlier than I need to be home While I'm gonna end up being home. Oh, I know it's not really the plan right now, but I know that's probably what's gonna happen So we're gonna get some chores done. We're gonna get some stuff done and build a dog run drywall our living area and Mow the lawn and the big ball of fire in the sky has come to join us We're over halfway back already. What it's Quarter after 11 right now. We have another four hours of driving to get to the border fueled up in Roberts, Wisconsin on the West side of the state there Made my way over here and look at us go Should be home at a decent hour tonight And I know I always talk about the daylight hours, but it's so amazing Being down in Alabama. Just two days ago. The Sun would set what I did nine eight eight o'clock eight o'clock It was dark up here. The Sun doesn't set until like 10 30. It's not even that far away I don't know one of the things I find interesting I've got to park this truck at the yard when we get there because we're continuing on with this trailer to Calgary tomorrow To the Calgary area there. Oh, catox is what it's called small town south of Calgary But I only have to leave tomorrow evening like around supper time or whatever I just got to get like maybe to Brandon Manitoba and from there. I can do the rest on Sunday And deliver Monday morning So we're just stopping in for tonight, so I don't even have to unhooked or anything I just go and park the whole unit in the yard And take the pickup home and enjoy some on evening Maybe get on the mower tonight easily excited You can watch me mow the lawn I'm excited Brits that work all day today. I think she's just getting to work now. She'll be at work till After supper sometime so we'll have the house and Yard to ourselves for a couple of hours until we get home and we're back in Manitoba. There's the Manitoba sign over there Karen's already yelling at me and The scale is closed. That is a proper welcome home That is the proper way to welcome a trucker home closed scale Look at the truck parking over there now. Oh, wait. No, that's guys not supposed to be there. Haha. I Guess it's truck parking now What are they doing here? Oh, they're building a new scale or something or they're fixing the old one That was always just a mosh pit driving through there The pavement in that scale was so bad So bad it made in Michigan look good. That's not easy to do I guess they're redoing it they redid the highway here now with actual cement this time Which is nice because usually they just like put a Like a half-inch layer of asphalt over the top and it lasts for at least two months This should last a bit longer Another one Canada we have Our 15 minutes or so to our yard I just got to park the truck jumping the pickup throw the weasel in the pick up and Off we go to home Looks like they might have worked for me next week. I'm not too sure but I'll be in a different truck I'm pretty sure I'll just be home for the week because I'll be out of hours by the time I get back I'm going to need a reset After this calder. I've got a reloaded Edmonton on Monday That's taking me back home, and then they asked me if I was available I Don't know with that a different truck for me to do a quick run next week. I said yeah, I'm available, but I didn't think of it My hours are actually going to be gone So I'm probably not going to be we'll see what happens next week is next week. Let's just worry about today That diesel ready to go home bud ready to go home Oh, yes, you are I'm going as fast as I can man. Here we are got my water pump here I Got some bad news It says it's made in China. I hope it works Okay, we got gonna wash the bedding because we washed all my clothes down the road got this whole big bag for Brits step mom One of my mother-in-laws a whole bunch of Orville Red and backers Popping and topping buttery flavored oil. She wanted six of these What are you gonna do with all that? Are we having a movie night popcorn party? Because I'm down She told me to pick this up for her Okay, I also got some pop tarts. Those are for me. Those will leave in here And we'll be back tomorrow. So we're only taking home the necessities Clean this whole place up tomorrow as well Just the important stuff everything else And stay here. Okay, let's get everything in to pick up and let's go home It's a hot one today. It's just as hot up here as it was in Alabama Exactly just as hot Just not quite as humid the air isn't as thick but Still piping on our nights get cooler though the nights down there were just brutal I Couldn't sleep in my truck doesn't idle through the night. That's a policy thing So I had a hard time sleeping but as soon as I got up here like last night when I slept in Wisconsin Oh, the nights are a little bit cooler. They're still pretty warm, but not like Alabama one. Oh We got a motorcycle cutting everybody off here. Are you kidding me, man? Really? Oh, he's giving her. He's giving her Dude That's why motorcycle insurance is so high Or sneaking our way back to the southeast Manitoba. I love summertime so much, you know Look at all the fields. They're all green still there. They're still not turning Golden or anything next month. They'll start turning golden in August. They'll be getting harvested September October and before you know it, you'll see the farmers preparing their fields for winter And for next spring and then Christmas comes and then after that There's there's this dark period for three months from January to April. It's I don't really know what happens in that period, but All I know is bad things happen Say that There's no use for those months. I Tried tearing those months out of my calendar and they just that didn't stop them. I don't know what else I can do My favorite mug It's a secret So, yeah, I'm just at home for one day for the Saturday and then Sunday we take off towards Alberta and then we're coming back for It'll probably turn out to be close to a week because my truck, like I'll say needs to go into the shop get serviced And I also have the next weekend booked off for fertility appointments. It's also Canada Day weekend It's the 4th of July weekend. That's all in one big shebang right there. So Be home for all the celebrations and See what they'll have us do after that'll probably be gone for another three or so weeks after that But a little bit of home time video is coming after the next couple of days So I think I have three more days yet and then I'll be at home Uh, I usually don't film every day that I'm at home I've got so much to get done here that sometimes it's just easier just to get it done and then Show you the progress after I have to actually go put coffee in my cup that would make a lot more sense But thanks for watching today everybody tomorrow. Oh, we'll head off towards Calgary
