 Good morning. Good morning, everybody. How you doing? Getting ready for another day right here. I've got a delivery in Vinton, Virginia. First thing tomorrow, we'll go to Auburn, Massachusetts. And then I go over to Beverly, Massachusetts. And then I end off in Bideford, Maine. From there, we'll see what our reload is. It's Labor Day weekend when I'm filming this. I hope you had a good one. Not many people are out on the road, so it looks like a lot of you were at home with your families, and that's good to see. I'm taking my long weekend in two weeks because my wedding anniversary is on that weekend. We got married on September 16th, 2017. So it's going to be our sixth anniversary this year. So instead of taking Labor Day weekend off, I'm going to take that weekend off and a couple extra days there. We're going to go do some special stuff. The last couple of days, I haven't been vlogging too much. The videos were a little shorter. I just put them together and I realized that they didn't have a lot of substance to them. I apologize for that. When you vlog every day, some days are just not as exciting as other days. We've got this covered wagon Conestoga trailer behind us. We call them roll tights. It's a tri-axle. The rear axle is a lift one. So it's not actually on the ground. And it's just like a flatbed trailer, except it's got what you might call rolling tarps. So instead of tarping your freight with this load, you need to roll the cover over it, but you load it from the side. I found these truck stops here late last night. I got it pretty late. But we got it done. We're slowly getting our way down there. Tonight, we'll be down in Benton. I still don't know where we're going to be sleeping tonight. Let's figure that out as we go. I'm going to get myself a coffee. A little blooms are already all warmed up, ready to go. The law says I can start rolling in about 20 minutes, so I better start doing my pre-trip so we can get out there. Have you guys been paying attention? Have you been waiting for another one of these giveaways? We've picked one winner so far. We're going to pick a few more yet by the end of this month, but you've got to watch every video. Today's your lucky day. If you want something from Haas, maybe a hat like this, maybe a mug. I'm not too sure what they're going to send you. If you'd like one, the way you get one, instead of emailing me, don't email me this time because last time you just about broke my phone. That's totally okay. If you want one, go down below to the comments section. Tell me about a Haas product that you bought recently or in the past, and tell me how well it worked for you. Go down below to the comments section right now. Let me know. I'm going to pick one comment, and I'm going to pin the winning comment. If your comment gets pinned, I'll reach out to you and respond to you there, and I'll get a mailing address or we can send something to you. So go down below. Let me know what Haas product you bought or which Haas product you bought when you bought it, and how you liked it. Did it work? Turning Sharker Josh vlogs into some kind of infomercial channel where they're going to try to sell you something every day. That always bugs me. I understand why YouTubers do that because a lot of YouTubers, they do this for a living, right? I wish I could just do YouTube videos for a living, but then I wouldn't be able to drive my truck. And I love driving trucks, so I don't want to be selling you stuff every day, but I will give shout-outs to products that work that I know and that I like. And the people at Haas reached out to me a while ago already and I've gotten to know them. They're really good people. Just like people at Bullsnot. And I'll share with you products that I use that I think you might like too. They're related to my channel, right? I don't want to make a video about trucking and then suddenly turn around and, you know, try to start selling you the beach towels or something. I have people emailing me every day if I want to be sponsored by them. And I said, no, no, no. My channel is not sponsored by anybody but me. I mean, I'm not one of those channels that is trying to sell something all the time. If I am going to try to promote something to you, I want it to be something that's relevant to what I do because you guys are watching me because you're interested in what I do. So if there's a product that comes along like Haas or Bullsnot, a little product placement here, right, for both of them, right? Sure, I'll talk about them. If they reach out to me, we develop a little bit of a relationship, maybe a partnership. It's not a sponsorship. We work together a little bit, right? If I think they have some products that could help you, sure, I'll help them. And you know what, Haas has been nice enough that they want to send you out a couple of hats, a couple of mugs. I think I got a mug in here as well. I can show you it later. Where is it? I can't reach it right now. But they asked me to do a couple of giveaways on my channel here. And I said, sure, we'll think of some creative ways. We'll do four or five in this month. So maybe one per week, but you're going to have to watch every day. You see that way I get you coming back every day if you want a hat. Interstate 74 eastbound. We're just about at the Indiana border. This highway's going to take us straight to Indianapolis. It looks like it's going to take us right through the city. Hopefully we don't hit any big traffic today. I don't have a lot of time to waste. We're going to be go, go, go, go in again. This whole week is sort of going to be a bit of a rush because we have the four drops and I want to get them off as fast as possible because I'd like the opportunity to reload this week yet. I don't know where my reload is going to be. But if I rush and if I hurry responsibly, I should be able to get unloaded Thursday, I think. Because we're going to be in Benton, Virginia tomorrow, which is Tuesday morning. And then Woburn, Massachusetts is another 600 and some miles, 650 miles. So that's a full day driving, 1,050 kilometers. So Tuesday drive all of Tuesday, deliver their Wednesday morning-ish, late morning. And our next one in Beverly, Massachusetts is I think an hour and a half, two hours away as long as there's no big traffic jams. So if we get that off before noon, we go and get Beverly off in the afternoon, then we head up to Bideford, Maine, and we get that done Thursday morning. If everything works properly and all the ducks line up in a row, we can do that. And then we have all of Thursday and Friday to get reloaded. Now remember, because I came down from Canada delivering this freight from Canada to the U.S., the freight I take back into Canada has to be going directly back or the freight I pick up. So I'm not too sure where it'll be or what it'll be, but it'll have to be a load that goes directly back to Canada. I can't pick up in the U.S. and drop off in the U.S. That's very illegal. So we'll be going back north. Maybe there won't be any loads. Maybe they'll send me empty up to the Toronto area and I'll pick up a load there and take that back to Winnipeg. I don't know. We'll find out as we go. That's one of the little fun parts of trucking, at least for me. You never quite know what's next. Sometimes that can be a little stressful. Depends if you need to get home for something important. And in a way, it's kind of nice having a little bit of mystery, you know? Something different all the time. I couldn't do a dedicated route where it's the same route over and over and over and over. I just... I guess so bored of doing that. Remember I did city work for over a year there? It was really great. A great position. And it got me home. That was during COVID. And we didn't know what was going on. We thought the world was sending and everyone was dying. Turns out it wasn't as bad as we thought at the beginning. So I was local for a while. I'm doing the same routes over and over and over again. For me, personally, it gets repetitive, boring, monotonous. I like switching it up. Doing something different all the time. Maybe doing the same thing for a little while but then doing something different like this. We went out to Prince Edward Island on our last trip. Now we're going out to Virginia and Maine. Just switching it up a bit. Off the highway and check the GPS. Right through the city of Indianapolis. And apparently I-65 is a freeway that goes right through the heart of Indianapolis. I wanted to make sure it wasn't sending me like... Sending me through downtown like it did in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island last time. There is a bypass that goes around the city, but if the I-65 is an interstate, it should be a freeway all the way through. And it's Labor Day weekend. There shouldn't be that much traffic on the highway, right? There shouldn't be. It's a holiday. Everyone should be at home. Traffic is in our favor. And nonexistent. I want to go 70 East. I don't know why I followed 70 West. And that'll take me around the south side of Indianapolis back. What highway is this? You gotta pick one there, Karen. This way? Yes, I can. In 600 meters, keep to the right on. I-465 East, I-74 East, I-465 West, I-74 West and then keep to the left in 190 meters. Okay, so I want to turn right from this lane? No, I want to be in that lane. There's nobody beside me. 5 East, I-74 East. Our savior highway. This will save us from our own mistakes. And bring us back to I-70 East where I belong. With the I-70 East people. I-465, shake me back to my people. I'm pretty sure you used to have to keep left. And keep right to go west. Now you have to keep right to go east to left to go west. Where I'm from, there's one main road. Biderweb of interstates just entangled with each other. Gotta make sure you don't miss your turn. You'll end up in Mexico or something. I'm on vacation in Mexico right now. Just saying. I'd love to go sit on a beach there. Continue on this road for 160 kilometers. Celsius outside. 32 degrees Celsius is equal to 89.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Doesn't seem as hot when you say it in Fahrenheit. I don't know why, because it's a bigger number, right? Trucks use left lane. Well then, I'm a truck. Left lane through the construction zone. Gotcha. That construction's already done. It knows what it is, but it is here. Find it here. New York City, though. We'll do that tomorrow. Thanks for hanging out with me, everybody. I'll see you then. Stay safe and be safe.
