 Hi, my name is Simon. I'm rainy days especially. We watch Frankie, Chevy and Diesel and TJV. Sometimes we watch Josh too. Are you doing bad? Are you doing good? Tell the good people. I'm fine. Hi guys, thank you. I wasn't expecting you to come in my face. Well, good morning to you. Everybody loves you Diesel. Everybody. Every single person. Why? Because you're a good boy and you deserve it. You deserve it. Am I weirding you out? I'm sorry. Stick the camera in your face first thing in the morning. How dare I? Oh man, I got a little bit of allergies. I think because it's getting a little chillier at night up here. And I'd use my bunk heater the last couple of nights. And I haven't used it all summer, right? So I have a dog with me, the dander and dust. It builds up in the tube. And then I turn it on and it blows air out the tube. And it just like spreads the dander like candy around the truck. And my eyes and my nose go, what is this? Something like that. I don't know. I think that's how it goes. Say yes. Good morning. Good morning. We're here in Whitecourt, Alberta. And we're about to go pick up our freight in the next town over in Blue Ridge, Alberta. Apparently it's tarped lumber. Well, it's lumber, but I have to tarp it after. It's not tarped right now. That'd be nice if it was. All right, let's get out of here. Off we go. To save the world. Because somebody out there needs lumber. And I got to bring it to them. What are they going to do without me? They're going to hire someone else, trucker Josh. Hi. I hear you. I hear you there in the comments. No. Let me feel important. We're going to pick up this lumber and bring it to the people who need it. In 100 meters, turn left on. Turn right in 230 meters. At least I think it's lumber. Because I mean like, I read my message where I'm supposed to pick it up. And apparently it says in the comments or in the notes that the shipper is going to provide poly wrap. I need poly wrap for with lumber. How fancy is this lumber? I'm very curious. I don't know. 200 meters. Turn right on highway 43. Hi, I'm Andy. Oh, Karen. I am so sorry. Oh, no. Karen. Oh, man. She's going to make me pay for that. I am so in trouble. So we actually load this inside. I've got to tarp it. And I believe that's my load there. I'm not sure what it is. It is some kind of very special fancy board. And I've got to put plastic poly wrap over it before I put my tarp over it. And then that's going to Rogers, Minnesota. I'm staying here. Stay out of it the way. There it goes. Just picking it up. It won't take them long to load it. I did have to dress up for the occasion though. But yeah, I'm sure it'll take them like 10 minutes to get it all loaded. It'll probably take me a couple of hours to get it tarped. Because I've got to poly wrap it. And I don't know where their poly wrap is. You'll probably show me how to use it. I've never had to do that before, so I learned something new today. That's fun. Oh, look at that. Two guys loading me now. Oh, what do you look at that? Look at these two guys just going to town. Just giving her. Well, I'll be loaded in like two minutes now. Good. And then they want this load in Rogers, Minnesota on Monday or Tuesday. Which doesn't make sense to me because I could be there Thursday and deliver Friday. So I'm still going to make a few phone calls. And see if I can bump that to Friday. You know what, I'm going to send an email right now, just a preliminary. Like, hey, get ready. I'm going to call you later. Kind of email. I don't want to sit on this load for that long. I don't want it to weigh me down all weekend when I could get it off me on Friday. It doesn't make sense. Unless it's like a specific location that cannot accept it until next week. In which case, that'd be a bummer. Let's see what they say. Let's talk to the load dogs. We're all loaded up, tarped up, tied down. Bumped up and ready to go. Walking loaded. It's a little loud in this building right now. So I'll show you the load a little later. I didn't want to walk around out there and just blast your eardrums. Whatever that sound is. But we are on our way. We're going straight there. They are going to unload us on Friday. So we're crossing through from North Portal Saskatchewan into Portal North Dakota. And making our way down to Rogers, Minnesota. I should be there tomorrow night and then I can unload Friday morning. They're going to try to find me a reload from there. I don't know what this thing is. Just steaming away. How do I get out of here? How do I get out of here? I gotta go this way. I'd love to see a chiropractor again. My back is just... I shouldn't be complaining. It's not that bad. It's been a lot worse. Ugh. I need to make sure this thing stays in alignment. So we got 43,000 pounds of wood on us. I'm going to stop just up ahead here over this bridge. I'll show you the load and then I want to change because then I'm all soaked and sweat. Quite a big operation here. It's kind of hard to find their shipping department. They have two different shipping departments. They have the regular lumber shipping and then they have the fancy lumber shipping. I had to pick up the fancy lumber, hence the tarp and a few extra pennies. Hopefully this bridge should be made for me. I mean, this is what they told me to go, right? Uh... That was like a cattle guard. Or a cattle. There's a cattle around here. There's a twist. Not just a lumber yard, also steak. Probably not. Probably not. I'm going to park right up here. Get ready to go. Show you good people. What I got on my trailer. Oh, the fresh air is nice. It's not as hot out here. It's a little nice breeze. It was pretty warm inside that warehouse. So here we go. I put the straps on the outside of the tarp this time. I figured that would work better. It serves a dual purpose. Holds the freight down and also holds the tarp down. Obviously I still bungee'd it, but at least this way less flapping, right? That's the idea. So it didn't stack very high, just one level high. And this is 43,000 pounds. I think it looks kind of pretty. Minnesota bound. Let's go. Oh my, what is this? You know I had a cavalier when I was in high school and I thought I was a lot cooler than I actually was. At least my cavalier didn't look like that. Look at that wing. Are you trying to fly? Does that car fly? I actually haven't seen a cavalier like this in a long time. You don't see many of them on the road anymore. That's not a bad car. You know, they're cheap to fix. Pretty cheap on fuel. Parts were cheap. There's nothing wrong with the cavalier. Can on mine. You could hear me coming for like half a mile. I lowered it too. I wish I was joking now. Imagine what I'm going to be saying about myself when I'm like 60. Man, when I was 30... This is Lloyd Minster's Alberta right now. We're going to be going across the line here to the other side of town, which is Lloyd Minster's Saskatchewan. I have six hours and 51 minutes available to me on my day. It's my 16 hour clock. Oh, six hours and 50 minutes. And I would like to use all of that. I'd like to get close down to Estevan or Webern. I should be able to make it tomorrow then in one full day. I know what we're going to do yet. If I got a reload or if I'm just going to come home empty, I might just come home empty from there. I'll deliver Friday in the morning and then just head home empty. I'll be home Friday night. Then at least I'm home for the Sunday round of golf and for our roof to be redone Monday and for my dentist appointment on Tuesday and then probably Tuesday evening I'll take off again. Get another load or two in this month yet. We'll see. We'll figure it out. Oh Saskatchewan, we always end up in Saskatchewan. So from here we still have 1,421 kilometers to go. Continue on this road for 112 kilometers. Well 112 kilometers till our next turn. But 101,421 kilometers until our destination. I'm trying to get as much done as I can today yet, but I've only got 3 hours and 40 minutes left on my clock. And I have to stop for a full 10 hours so that I can cross into the U.S. tomorrow. We might not get all the way to the customer tomorrow night, but we'll get close. We'll still be able to deliver on Friday morning. Hopefully get home Friday night. So have any of you gone to check out this dog park in Saskatoon? It's just off to the left here. It's just on the, what is this, the south side of the river? Since we, have any of you gone to check it out? Since we went to go check it out when Frankie was in the, at the vet? Here in Saskatoon for a surgery. Remember in our vlogs there we went and discovered this just ginormous, the best dog park we've ever found in our entire lives anywhere. It's right here in Saskatoon. If you haven't gone to go check it out yet and you live in the area and you have a dog, I'd highly recommend you go check it out. Dusty yard here in Davis and Saskatchewan on the Flying Jay. I was thinking of staying here the night. I decided not to. I don't want to go a little further yet. My e-log says I don't have to stop yet, so why stop? I'm trying to get down to wayburn. I think I can just barely make it if I hurry. I'll make my day tomorrow a little bit easier and the next day as well. It'll give me the option of getting home Friday night then. They put these pumps really close together, closer than usual. Barely thread the needles through here. Hey everyone, Matt Bailey here from Rochester, New York with my dog Diesel. You are watching TJV on YouTube. Enjoy!
