I bought it with eight thousand nine hundred and twelve So we've put a couple hundred on there already.

All right, we already got the gate opening for us there America here. We come Minnesota American buddies are up to see if anything has changed since we've been there. I haven't been there in what? Since November that's way too long of a gap There's a lot of people that haven't been there in a lot longer since the border is closed to non-essential right now Hopefully there's a light at the end of that tunnel and hopefully we can Get that border open for regular travel very soon that plans change. I only got down to the state Maybe we'll go there tomorrow then I got a head up and pick up a load in Winnipeg that's going to Portageville prairie load God's had other plans for me today That's okay as long as I'm doing something right It paid the same no matter what I'm doing put up with the same trailer I have behind me right now the step back southwest side of Winnipeg You get to go a little ways today and how important is it should I pull over? What did you do to your truck? It's his business logo is on that's why hey, it worked. He got our attention it worked I thought that was just like a regular private job. So sometimes the colors people paint their vehicles. Why? To go over the red river here The Lord God's like me today. I want to talk to me run across the flying jake here I mean decided to bridge and grab a coffee. I don't know what's going on I got to read these messages that they sent me apparently one was very important. You guys fix this bridge Gotta pull over and tighten all the nuts and bolts What's this guy doing dude? You're sticking out into my lane What are you doing again up for you? Thank you very much patience my friend patience There is you see it. This is that new one that they built. I Really like the location. They put it in because like today. It's in the perfect spot. I'm going right past I Was gonna get a coffee on the way back up from Thief River because I'd be going right past here then but I Guess America will just have to wait We will grace you with our presence tomorrow, maybe I'm not that big of a deal. Don't get too excited Median it bugs me The French municipalities Instead of putting a yield side there like Normal intersection at the stop sign so you go across one satellite and you stop at the mighty flying jay I'm gonna fuel up my tanks as well I'm below half tank I'm stopping anyway Sleeping curtains are pulled I've slept here numerous times All right, Mr. Cattleman, I'm gonna come in right behind you here Sneak past you here this tractor here the right though Just in case he gets stuck, you know I'll pull them up and this is what pulled me off the US freight This stuff right here This stuff's got to go to Portage little prairie, which is I don't know an hour or so that way Maybe an hour and a half from where I am right now This is bolted to the pallet. So I have the pallet strapped down I've also got the straps going over the bottom of the base there So just in case if they come loose it's still gonna be in place, but they never do come loose There we go So let's not go to thief River Falls, Minnesota. Let's go to Portage little prairie Manitoba Portage little prairie is like a historical town in Manitoba actually I'm pretty sure of it. Anyways, we learned about it in school. I Don't remember all the details. It was a special place at one time So this is oak bluff here. We're headed west. We're gonna go north up the west perimeter here for a second And then we're gonna head west on trans Canada our way towards Portage little prairie is sort of halfway between Winnipeg and Brandon We used to go around there all the time when we headed west when we were headed west It's a sketch one. Hey, so we don't even have to wait for traffic I like someone else to go down a thief river or that got delayed till tomorrow. I don't know this afternoon yet I don't know. I'll be in well actually, you know, I'll be in Portage little prairie around 130 Unloaded there by two. They're gonna send me the thief river this afternoon. That would be a lot of overtime I'd be a lot because it's about three hours. I think down the thief river and then Four hours back because you can go down 59 and cross into Lancaster, Minnesota from Tolstoy, Manitoba Empty, but you can't cross there loaded So we can go down empty there, but coming back. We got to go across to interstate 29 and Head north up to Pemboda, North Dakota and cross into Emerson, Manitoba It was a little bit longer on the way back Well, if you start first thing in the morning on your hours of service, you can usually get done two loads In one day they got pushed off to a spot. I don't know. I don't know That's not my job to figure that stuff out My job is just do what I'm told go pick up what they tell me to bring it where they tell me to bring it I like it that way less stress. I've seen a lot of these type of motorcycles out this year Take a look at this guy That was a Kawasaki Same style was like the BMW bikes, but they're sort of like touring sport touring now. We call it sport touring bikes Lots of those on the highway this year With all the lockdowns and us being unable to travel outside of Canada A lot of people have been investing their money into things to do here inside the country Which so people are buying ATVs motorcycles campers. They can't keep them in the lot That's where we come in to play we haul a lot of these toys Where they're but you see me coming in you see me coming in you see my signal on are you gonna keep on coming? Thank you. He flashed me in I appreciate that my friend. Give him a thank you flashers Get back into the right lane as fast as I can there we go Yeah, we haul a lot of those toys so that the ATV side-by-sides Motorcycles stuff like that the dealerships here can't keep them in stock by the time we get it to them It's already sold I'm the same way. I got a motorcycle too. I need something to do, right? And you know very soon they're gonna be opening up travel domestically for us here in Manitoba so that we can travel further in the country and come back and And yeah, they're making it easier on us. It's good. Looks like it should be a good summer That's a curtain side Not the ones I pull I pull kind of stokas. That's a curtain side Let me just off on the right here somewhere. This is the street. Okay, absolutely. It's right there your stuff for you I see it there. Thank you Google. I'm not sure where they want me here on the side and oh maybe in there I see a yard in there. Let this guy go past me Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have to go in there. I'm gonna get in there. Okay. He's waving me in All right, I'll talk to you guys the entrance right over there. Looks like he's waiting for me That's nice. Oh boy. Oh boy. It's right here. The trailers are singing They must be happy Happy that it's officially summer or what? Hey, who's singing back here? Oh, yeah, now you're gonna stop don't play games with me So the day is over. We ran out of hours in a day Like a beautiful orchestra of whales Very nice So this was the load I picked up but in portage I dropped off that load there the other one and I picked up this load It's got to go back to the same place. I picked the other load up. It's just back and forth but we ran out of hours in the day and They're closed now So this is being delivered 8 a.m. Tomorrow morning. That's that so it's gonna sit here I'm gonna leave my truck hooked up to it. I'm just grabbing all my stuff out of here gonna Cram it all into my saddlebags on the bike again And head home I have entirely Too much stuff I think this is what takes up the most room in my in my backpack This lunch kit doesn't quite fit properly in a backpack and they're they're both like from the same company And they're both Chevy you would think that they would make the backpack a matching lunch kit could fit inside with ease You would think that right? You would be wrong. Hey Nate, why would anyone do that? So I always got to cram this thing in here Not the first pocket not the second pocket the third pocket. It's the only pocket it fits in And that's what makes it look like it's so full And then I've got like my A spare pair of jeans in here because in the morning I wear line jeans because it's a little colder And then I put these other jeans on when I get to work. So I'm not sweating all day, right? Pair of jeans in there and got all kinds of other stuff in there Fun stuff, right? That's why it looks like the backpack is so big. It's not actually that big It's just my stomach's that big. I need that much food Well, it's time to head out We got a new guy who's in 2025 His name's Nathan It's a really cool guy. I like him So my truck 3006 or 3006 He's gonna sleep right here tonight. It's a nice warm night I don't think I need to tuck her in or anything. She's good to go, right?
