 Get this one on here next. This load tarped up. An overlap here with this one should be good. I want to make sure that it overlaps that as well on the front. Because this front tarp is only going to go up to the end of this. So I'm going to have to try and keep this tarp on top of that yet. So I think I'm going to actually pull it a little further this way for now just to make sure that we won't slip off of that. Going up here and readjust it once we have it over the load and get it where we want it then. Okay one more. Okay grab this thing here and up we go. Up up and away. Tarping all day. Snow hasn't started yet but it's supposed to start anytime now so I'm trying to get out of here. It's already feeling like snow outside. It's getting pretty cold. So is it going over the top? Which is barely eh? Okay I want to go and adjust that real quick. Want to make sure that the the other end of the tarp stays on top of that upper level because it'll be hard to get it back up there if it doesn't. This has to stay up here like that. There we go. It wants to slide that way that's the problem. There we go. I'm going to hold this here. There I think we're good. Is it looking on this side? Looking good. It's unhooked. Unhooked. It's very nice having a tarping building like this. I'm sure it was very expensive for them to set up for us and I really appreciate it. There we go. Then I just gotta bungee it all down and go home before the snowstorm hits. So glad that I rushed to get here at the time I did because I think they stopped loading trucks now. Just the start of it up here it's supposed to get a lot worse overnight so I'm taking this trailer home. Leave with it uh Sunday. So what I'm doing is I got my windows both open and I got the defrost off. I got the heat going just to the floor. What that's going to do is it's going to keep me warm. The heat's going to come over my feet keep my feet warm and come up by here but my windshield is going to stay cool. When you keep your windshield cold the snow just bounces off and then it doesn't melt and then ice up your winter blades or I mean your wiper blades. They are winter blades though. That's the strategy I use during storms anyways. It gets a little chilly in here so you gotta drive with a sweater on but you keep the cab or at least the dashboard and the windshield here cold as cold as possible and only have heat going to the floor. That way you don't gotta worry about it. See it's still sticking a little bit to my windshield there just because I had it all heated up before when I was tarping. Oh this is a sketchy corner especially in winter time. Can't see anybody coming that way. Can't see anybody coming that way. I don't see anyone. You just sort of gotta send it and put your four ways on once you get on here and just pray everyone's paying attention when they come whipping around that corner and not going too fast. A lot of weight on me now. I ain't got lots of traction. About 15 minutes emergency services are just getting here now. The guy with his radio on but he's not of any use. There's a fire truck. They're going past. I thought the accident was down the hill here because this wire wheel stopped here. We're stopped at the top of the hill here and top of the hill over there. Those guys are going something's happening. Hope we get moving soon. Hope everyone's all right. We're at the corner. We're at the Manitoba Ontario border. We're just into Manitoba. Fighters here. We got the police down there now. Hopefully these firefighters will come and let us know what's going on and when they think we might be moving. I don't know where the accident is. It's got to be at the bottom of the there's a little hill here. We just passed the scale coming into Manitoba. It's right there behind me. But the cops are going past here too. So where is the accident? The book got run off the road like just a few miles back as well. The road was obviously he came like straight at me. I just made it past him and he like he almost hit the ditch on my side of the road. It was clear where the ditches were. I don't know what he would did he fall asleep? How do you fall asleep in weather like this? Hopefully he didn't cause an accident behind me somewhere. But now I'm stuck here until this all gets cleared up. Really quite the bummer because I was so close to home. I just wanted to go home to avoid this exact thing. But the police are here now. So maybe the police will start directing traffic through there hopefully. So what do you do when you're stuck on the highway in a snowstorm? You make yourself a peanut butter and honey sandwich. Makes me feel better. That's good. So one of the guys came up here and told us what's going on. No accident. Thank thank goodness. I guess the emergency guys were called. Well they came in just in case the police are here to direct traffic because we got miles of backup behind us already. This is the one highway across Canada. It's the only way you can get east to west so there's a huge backup. No accident. There's a couple of drivers. Probably a rookie. Slowed down on the uphill. Came to a stop. Stuck right there spun out. So a teaching lesson would be I know it's kind of it sounds kind of weird but when it's snowing in the roads of slippery you don't want to go slow up the hill. You want to go fast up the hill. You want momentum. Don't slow down on the uphill. This is this will happen and then you got a big kerfluffle with a lot of people affected because now the whole road is blocked but they're gonna get them out of the way right away. We should be going soon but my advice to you. I've been driving since 2006 so I think I'm almost at the point where I can give advice and you can take me serious. Almost. Get some good momentum going up the hill. You don't have to go like a bazooka out of the you don't gotta you don't gotta go like an ass car up the hill. You want a good bunch of momentum especially if you don't have a lot of weight on your truck. If you don't have a load. They got people moving through here now. Good. Fast up the hill but slow down the hill. You want to go down really slow. You want to be able to stop if something happens in front of you but up the hill you need to get momentum. So also you can take this as a piece of advice or if you're driving a car and you got a truck behind you and you see him speeding up behind you before a hill that's because he wants to get that momentum. If you can and if it's safe to do so don't slow down on the uphill okay. Let's get some momentum going up the hill at the top make sure you slow down and then go which sometimes I get it that just doesn't work because people at the top of the hill are slowing down to go down the hill right. People coming up the hill are going fast to get up the hill. Eventually everything's going to be jammed up so really you sort of just got to play it by ear. It doesn't always work that way. You can't always go fast up the hill but you've got to keep in mind though if you're empty maybe but if you see a hill coming give some space let off let the other cars get up the hill and then you ever get up that hill and then slow down to come down you know what I mean. You don't have to listen to me but if you're wondering what you should have to eat right now I know you're hungry peanut butter and honey sandwich and don't go cheap on the honey okay very important that's good and let the honey give the honey time to soak into the bread too so you make the sandwich and you put the honey on the bottom and you get let it sit for like five minutes. Let it soak into the bread. You can thank me later. Oh oh things are moving now oh boy they've got the eastbound lane open now I'm guessing they're going to escort us through next they had the RCMP escorting them that way continue on this road for 40 kilometers Karen calm down I know I want to go home too why would you why does she randomly do that does your GPS do that too just randomly start talking for no reason I've been sitting here for like two hours she's still talking to me well we're still here I think this is our escort coming on the left here he just finished escorting eastbound to the Ontario border I think he's gonna pull in front of us now and let us go please come on come on oh now there's a tow truck coming here too what in the world I'm so confused I have no idea what's going on nothing makes sense I think that cop's gonna let us let us through I think he's gonna lead us through maybe not no idea no idea I know eastbound is open now anyway I don't know why they're not letting us go westbound just want to give a quick shout out to Evan from champion towing he's the guy who was getting this all cleared up here and apparently you watched my videos they were just finishing up and he saw me and he was just leaving I guess here he said he's going back into Ontario that's where he stayed uh based for the winter and uh he pulled over and he walked across here to say hi to me he says that everything's cleared up that we should be moving in a few minutes or so they're just finishing up a few things so I got the inside scoop from him the benefits of being on youtube now I know what's going on but uh shout out to you Evan that that was uh nice to meet you thanks for cleaning this up otherwise I would have been here all weekend I want to go home so thanks we're moving woo I'm letting traffic get a little bit ahead of me here like I said I'm gonna want a little bit of momentum to get up that hill they have been sanding and salting I got a heavy load behind me I shouldn't have a problem I shouldn't spin out I know you can't see much on the video right now you'll just have to trust me feels good to be moving going for about a mile or two this is what happens when you shut down the one road that goes from east to west in Canada just for a couple of hours I got to know some of the people in the lineup there a little bit while I was waiting vehicle in front of me there that guy's Jim same story as me saw the storm coming and was trying to beat it we almost made it now we're just trying to get through this section of bad weather hopefully I can make it all the way home yet we're all moving along at 50 kilometers an hour about 35 miles an hour I'm gonna need to pick it up a little bit hopefully it clears up a little bit so I can do that but uh for now I don't want to rush the guys in front of me you know nobody wants to be the next reason for a highway block I know I don't want to be wonderful right it follows me everywhere you know this bad weather is turning into kind of a stalker for me good job all blue you did great me well my patience was so thin I couldn't even see it anymore it was oh my all the way from the Ontario border to the 12th that's uh usually about an hour and a half drive but you know the weather was kind of bad as you as you can see but hey at least we arrived safe hey I guess better than oh man some of those guys though because you got that person in front of me going way too slow and I thought it was way too dangerous to pass so I just stayed behind them right but there was like four five or six trucks semi-trucks blowing past people pushing through about two feet of snow in the passing lane blinding everybody just because they were getting impatient blowing past people and then uh one one of the trucks got sucked into the ditch we saw his tracks go in there luckily for him he was able to get it back out and back on the road you want to be you want to play those games there's families in these vehicles around us like the car that was going so slow at the front driving me nuts but I'm sure it was like a young mother and her child or maybe it was a pregnant woman if that was my wife who's pregnant if that was my pregnant wife and there was trucks blowing past them on the snow pushing trying to push her into the dish leaving her in a whiteout because they were getting impatient man I'd have a different kind of record I would what is wrong with people you're supposed to act on the road like the people around you or your loved ones in your family how would you feel if someone would do that to your wife and kids if they were driving if you wouldn't like that you shouldn't do it either anyways enough ranting about that that got me so upset but here we go I thought of it after I got it in here maybe I should have knocked some of the snow off outside so I don't have to squeegee it out of here in the morning but it's too late now I can't go outside there's I literally I had to make tracks into my shop with my pickup truck in the snow so that I could get this and without getting stuck there's two feet of snow outside that door there it goes up to here I can't show you outside the shop but it goes up to about here that first notch there that's how deep the snow is outside that door I had a lot of trouble detaching the trailer but we got her got her detached and that old blue in the shop so now let's get our stuff out of here it's already 11 o'clock now there goes my weekend again well my Friday Friday that's okay that's trucking right trucking in the winter time the winter time is very expensive but I'm okay hey tomorrow is another day we're gonna have some fun no trucking tomorrow okay no trucking I've had enough trucking for a while we're just gonna stay at home and I don't know build a snowman something I don't care anything but trucking for the next two days have a good one everybody give a thumbs up for that snowstorm give a thumbs up for old blue look at what she puts up with look at this
