 Good morning. It's actually good afternoon. We had to get going a little later than we wanted to Because I'm running out of hours on my 70 hour clock I only have eight hours available to drive today to get to Canada and I'm 942 kilometers away from the border But I can recap hours after midnight tonight central time So it's three o'clock now central time four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve nine hours till midnight Sometimes throughout this day I got to take a half hour break and I could just turn it into an hour break if I wanted to or two other coffee breaks or bathroom Breaks all in all it should be arriving at the Canadian border just after midnight and as soon as midnight hits I Get to recap hours. No, I won't be at the Canadian border. I'll be out of hours around midnight Sorry, I'll be about two hours from the Canadian border yet. Then I get to start recapping hours from eight days ago That'll be added on to my day at the end of the day today So I'll be able to get to the Canadian border then go into Canadian hours of service And then I'll have plenty of hours to deliver and go pick up my reload and get home We're cutting it close But we mathed really good And we've done our pre-trip now. We're all set. We're all ready to go dogs have been walked They've had their breakfast. I've got my breakfast right here. It's a Bolt House Farms Peach Parfait breakfast smoothie I'm gonna be all hipster on you today Okay, so I know it's didn't here yesterday, so we got a back out of our spot I already walked back there made sure no one was parked behind me because you never know people don't think Oh, this semi truck is parked here. He's gonna have to back out. Let's park right behind him. Good idea It happens Four ways on people know here Why they got all these pylons over here. It's weird beautiful country out here One of the many great things about Montana Scenery is just incredible and they got traffic lights here now I can still remember when they didn't have any lights here. It's sometimes hard to get onto this road Give her bud. Oh wait wait car coming. Okay. He's turning. Come on give her bud. Go as you enter a new state Or as you enter a new province For the commercial vehicles very often and very rarely that you come into a new state or province Without a scale this one here means to me that we must be getting close To Idaho because that's the next state We got to go through that the northern little what would you call the northern panhandle or the northern little section of Idaho? it's only a Short little distance to get across it and then we're in Washington state will be in Spokane, Washington or Spokane Spokane Spokane Some people say it's Spokane We'll be in Washington state for the rest of the day and then crossing into Canada a little after a minute straight to our customer Parking right there. I'll even get all the tarps and straps off tonight yet And then go to sleep so that they can just start whenever they get there tomorrow, and I got nothing to do You know you shall see So it's been really cold back at home glad to be out here where it's warmer, but Eventually, you know after this I got to go back home Idaho it's right you to hope mountain was a little bit slippery in sections that hit nice patch and spun out and actually Hit the barrier so he was all smashed up and then I I was wondering cuz I thought the road was just wet, right? So I slowed right down And I realized oh, there's actually some patches that are What do you what do they call it black ice? the sneaky ice The ice that you can't see So I don't want to hit any of that on the way down the mountain. I Mean, it's okay hitting it on the way up. It's not as bad But the way down that could be a little bit of a different story Apparently this guy in front of me here. He's thinking the same thing That he's a little Hardcore he's going like 20 miles an hour that's a little Guess better safe than sorry This is pretty much the border very close to the border with Idaho and Washington state North Idaho College here So there's actually quite a quite a bit of people up in this northern section of Of the state and never quite understood why they have this Thin stretch of land all the way up to the Canadian border. Maybe maybe that was so that they could have access to Canada. I Don't know. There is a commercial crossing between Idaho and British Columbia. I've gone through there a couple of times to about moving to the States quite often It's quite a lengthy process and it's not easy because it's not supposed to be it's supposed to be difficult Otherwise, you know all seven billion people on the planet would just pile in all at once, right? So a little difficult, but If we ever had the opportunity, I mean, I think I would kind of push to move in like Western Montana Idaho Area, maybe even Utah Those are some of my favorite areas of the US I like how wide open it is American it is if that makes sense Weather isn't too bad either We are officially in Canada. Oh that fog was short-lived. I was gonna say and it got super foggy just as we got over the border That was only for a short little while. Apparently it's only foggy around the border So we just came in on Pacific Highway. I could have crossed right at Abbotsford Where we need to deliver but they closed down their commercial crossing at 10 p.m. According to the interwebs and the internet never lies, you know that all the truth is on the internet So anyway, I didn't want to risk it Haven't crossed through there before and I've crossed for here all the time and this is 24 hours here and I knew that for sure So we came around here, so I still got 60 kilometers to go to go around But it's nighttime, so there shouldn't be any traffic We are now in the province of British Columbia. It's not very British anymore, but Only by name
