 Morning everybody. We're just outside. Lloyd, Mr. We're on the Saskatchewan side. We stopped at the scale. I don't usually like sleeping at scales, but my body said to me yesterday, hey Josh, there's an open parking spot over there. You better take it. You better take it right now. And it gave me that kind of like, you know, I'm tired, you better stop. You know? So here we are. I'd actually parked on the other side where I showed you last night when we stopped. But of course, you know, a half hour after I laid my head down, I was just drifting off to sleep. There's probably less than that. It was probably because I was so tired. Like 10 minutes after I put my head down. Another guy pulls into the empty spot beside me, right? I'm like, okay, I got a neighbor. Hopefully he'll be quiet. Oh, he wasn't quiet. No, no. Opens his doors, got his music blaring, has his engine fan going on and off and on and off, had his high beams on too, but luckily they weren't shining in my cab, but he did park there with his high beam zone. That's besides the point. And he's talking on his phone, right? Really, really loudly. And I'm like, okay, this guy's really obnoxious. He's really annoying. He's making a lot of noise. And I have my windows down at this time of year, right? It's the perfect time of year. I have the screens in my window so that mosquitoes can't come in, but I can still have the windows open, have fresh air and just enjoy the peaceful sounds. That's why I stopped the way out here. So it's quiet. And this guy was walking around his truck, just talking loudly on his phone. And his truck was loud and his music was on, his door was open. I don't know what he was doing, but after a half hour, I'd had enough. And so I creeped it from the other side of the building over there, where that white truck is, way out there. And I creeped it around over here and I had no neighbors. This guy just got here like just a little while ago. He wasn't here all night. No neighbors. Oh look, somebody's got a big band right there. I better grab that. It's not mine. Anyways, perfect night. Absolutely perfect night on this side of the lot. I feel so good today. I haven't felt this good in a little while. I needed that sleep. I needed it. My body was so tired from that truck show. I didn't get enough rest the night after that. Today is gonna be a really good day. I mean, every day is a good day, but today is gonna be a really good day. I feel great. You know, we got this little reservoir or this pond or whatever out here. So I slept and I had like the sounds of nature. I woke up to birds chirping. I felt like I was just camping. It was amazing. It was amazing. So now I'm hearing the sound of these tires rolling past here and it's making me want to go trucking. So let's get old blue ready. Let's get out there. This is where it should be. There's a little bit of a mess in here. That's okay. Yesterday was a long day. We'll fix it today. We'll have a bit of a shorter day today and have some time to clean things up. Let's get out there. Hole blows, warmed up, ready. Dash camera is on and running. Okay, we're gonna check our trailer. It's attached. It's gonna come with us. Good. I don't want to leave that behind. That'd be awkward getting to the customer. Alright, so I am facing east bound. I want to go westbound. I had to move over to this side, like I said before, because I had a noisy neighbor show up after I was already parked. You know how I feel about that? There's a better spot. I'll just move. And if there's not, I'll probably ask them to go and be quiet. Come on, coming into where trucks are parked for night. That's like walking into a hotel with like a boombox on your shoulder. Like come on, man. Come on. Whatever. It worked out, right? I don't like parking on the other side of the direction I'm traveling on when I'm parking at a scale house like this. Because now I've got to drive right past the scale house. I don't think they're there, but they might be. They're definitely not open because I've seen trucks go driving past. So they really look cool. Look natural. Why is that guy parked right in the middle of the driveway? That's interesting. Yeah, they're closed. Those guys are sticking way under the driveway. Am I supposed to go around that way? Am I supposed to go around that way? I'm gonna go around that way. Well, I guess that's where the parking spots are. That's how they made it. I never realized that. That's okay. I can go around this way. Well, hey, that was the noisy guy, wasn't it? That was the noisy guy. Oh, sure. Now he's quiet. Now he's quiet. Okay. I'll well. I'll well. So he did shut his truck off and go to bed eventually. Could probably stay there, but my patience ran thin. That's okay. I was tired. I wanted to sleep. That's all right. I fixed the situation. No harm, no foul. I'm feeling really good today. Wow. This is the best part of the day. Getting back out there. Come on, old blue. It's gonna be a good day, right? Those black Hawks that I bought are getting broken in just nicely. They were kind of wishy washy when I first got them. Apparently, that's very common though. I've been talking to other drivers when you put on new drive tires, brand new ones, all eight of them all at once. The back end sort of, you know, floats around a little bit, kind of freaks the guy out. But they get broken in pretty quickly. I put on 2000 miles on these drives so far. And they've they've now stabilized and broken in. So I was good. I was getting a little bit worried that I made a mistake. But I met a guy at the truck show actually that ran these same tires as me through last winter and he said I'm gonna love these tires in wintertime. I know some people say that they harden up in wintertime. He says it's not true. They're great in the wintertime. You're gonna love them. That made me feel good. I'll let you know how it goes. But we're not gonna talk about winter. We just got into summer. Let's enjoy summer first and forget that there's even a winter coming. How about that? Erase that from our minds. I'm sorry I even said it. It's a swear word around here. The W word. First things first though before we even get through Lloyd. I'm on the Alberta side now. I'll stop in at the Esso Husky. Grab some liquid life. Coffee. Oh, someone's getting us banking. It's not me. Cook your run and get our coffee. Let's go get this freight off my trailer. I have other freight that I'm supposed to put on there tomorrow. I need an empty trailer for that though. I don't think they're gonna want to put it on top. These have a service bay in there too. I'm gonna close it up the brick. I'd say it's closed. Coffee trick with you guys. I see so many people pouring coffee and then when I explained to them how I do it every single time they've been like, I never thought of that. So, I'm gonna share it with you. Every time I go in there and I gotta wait for someone to pour their coffee. It's alright, right? They always pour the coffee first and then they put their cream in later and then they have to sit there and stir it, right? Uh huh. I'm gonna save you that step right now. Put the cream in first. Go in there. Put the cream in. If you buy enough coffee, you know how much cream you're gonna need. Put that in there first and then pour the coffee in and then as you pour the coffee in it mixes it up. First off, you don't have to waste a little stir stick. Second of all, you save all that time of stirring. I'm sure the average person spends at least at least like five seconds stirring every day and that's an important five seconds that you could spend doing more important things. Put the cream in first. If you know how much sugar you're gonna need to, I don't put any sugar in coffee. That's gross. But if you do it, that's okay. I'm not judging you. I'm not judging you. I don't understand your ways but you want to put sugar in your coffee, that's cool. Put it in first. If you know how much you're gonna need, put it in first, put the cream in, pour the coffee in. It's stirred. Done. Put the lid on. Walk out. Pay for it and then walk out. Depending if it's your free coffee or not. Every ten coffees is free, right? In some places. Every ten. It should be like every, you know, every third or maybe every fifth, I think that would be good. Every tenth coffee, man. Gotta wait so long just for a free one. But it does make it more special once your free coffee, you just feel like doing a dance. Especially if you didn't remember that it was your free one. You went in there, you're like, all right, you're pulling out your wallet and they're like, no, that's your free one. I feel like a million bucks. All right. Off we go. Off we go. No time to waste. Let's avoid these potholes here. I don't want to die today. I'm just coming. Dreats before we get some traffic lights because I gotta go that way. Cross over traffic. There goes the cops again, man. They're all over Lloyd Minister today. There they go. Oh, there's one over there too. One there. Oh, there's three in one block here. Well, I hope everybody's being good. Maybe they're looking for someone. And you see, that's why I don't warn people that there are cops ahead. You know, bad things happen more often than you think. People commit crimes. People kidnap children. They kidnap women. Human smuggling is a bigger issue than a lot of people realize I think. And you know, they may be speeding into town and I'm not gonna warn them that the cops are up ahead. Well, you never know. That might be the only chance that, you know, that guy gets or that might be the only way he gets caught. I mean, the majority of people, 99% of people out here are good people, right? But it's that one person you never know. You never know. In this delivery, there was one Anderson Health Point. There was another Anderson Toefield. That's why I called them and I asked them exactly where they were. And this is where they told me to go. This road recently. They did a skew flying J. This is where we're gonna spend the night. It took quite a while to unload the trailer. So in the meantime, I was able to polish the wheels and the tanks and the steps a little bit. Shine her up and also get those side visors installed. I haven't showed you those yet. How about let's go take a look. I warned them at the truck show the other day. You may have seen pictures online of them already. This is actually next on my list. Let's see one on the other side there too. So I saw them in the raffle and I figure if I'm gonna win anything, I want to win those. So I put a bunch of tickets into that one and ended up winning it. I never win things. So that was nice. It was a lot of fun. Fuel prices here are super cheap because we're in Alberta. $1.29 per liter as opposed to Manitoba that I believe is still at $1.69 or $1.59 somewhere around there. Alberta is always considerably cheaper. They have less taxes here. But anyway, this is where we're gonna shut her down a bit of a short day today. Not much happened at all. I'm lucky I got a spot here. There's only like 10 spots available. Well, there's one, two, three, including me four, five, six, seven, seven spots here. So I got here what was 3.30 in the afternoon already in the middle of the day. There's one spot left. It's ours. Yeah, that's all I have to show you for today. Tomorrow we go pick up a load. I'm not too sure what it's gonna be but it's just around the corner from here. I believe it's gonna be some kind of equipment. I know it's kind of vague but that's all I know. It could be farm equipment. It could be construction equipment. It could just be supplies for equipment. This will find out tomorrow. It's just down the street from here. So I'll see you then guys. Have a good one.
