 gorgeous morning diesel. It's beautiful and gorgeous at the same time making it gorgeous. We're still here at the Flying J where we slept. I'm just waking up now doing paperwork, getting ready to cross the border in about three hours, getting ready to make sure all my logs are legal. I'm legal to cross into the United States of America. Diesel has gone for his walk. Hey look here man, diesel. Good boy. People want to see your beautiful face man. So other than that we're gonna fuel once we get into the United States because it'll be a lot cheaper there. We're crossing at Detroit, Michigan which reminds me I need to get cash out for the bridge. Let's write the bridge. I've got to pay to get it. How much is it to get over the bridge? Isn't it like twenty some dollars? Thanks. Anyways guys so I'm gonna make sure I am ready for that. Log sheets are just getting ready here. Let's get this show on the road. I gotta be going here at 72 feet. What? Why? Hey guys so we're getting close to the bridge. The bridge. Are you excited for the bridge? Bridge to USA. Exciting. How many of you've traveled over this bridge before? It's the most popular, most busiest crossing between the two countries. Here's a duty-free truck entrance here on the left if you guys are ever looking for it. This guy is not using the turn lane. Why is there a cone in this lane? My goodness people are confused. There's supposed to be two lanes here. You see two arrows, two lanes. I'll just say you guys know there's only one lane there. Then it just comes right through here anyway. Well that's why I don't like crossing here. Nothing makes sense. Nothing. I mean I'm sure it makes sense to regulars but they got to make it so confusing. Are you guys ready for the bridge? I think we're about to go over the bridge now. We'll pay for it on the other side. How much this bridge costs for a truck with five axles. I believe they charge you per axle. Pretty sure. Construction. That's what all the colons are for. Man, this thing's always under construction. I've been driving for a while and I don't think I've ever seen it not under construction. I don't cross here very often though so definitely looks and feels like it does need the construction. Why is everybody going the other way? Construction stuff smells like tar. Woo! That's a stank. That's what it's called. Ambassador Bridge. This is the most busiest, like I was saying, the busiest crossing between our countries. Over a billion dollars travels through here every day. I think someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Goes over this bridge. Sounds pretty cool if you say I want billion dollars every day. Just don't trust me on that one. Somebody go Google it. I can't Google it right now. I'm trying to get over this bridge. Hey we're in the US right now. Hey! Welcome to the United States everybody. Welcome. It's good to be here. Good to be here. Glad I could visit. Thanks for the warm welcome. Whoa! That's not a very warm welcome. I mean cutting off my lane. What am I supposed to do? There was this old line there. Here's his cars used left lane only but they want the trucks to go down here. 150 meters. Exit unwrapped to Ford Street West. Always construction at this crossing. It's always confusing. Now I believe we pay for the bridge first and then we exit unwrapped to Ford Street West. I'm gonna be in this lane again. Or is this the border crossing already? I'm pretty sure they want you to pay for the bridge first. Make sure they get our money. You know what I mean? Once they have our money then they'll let us in. Ding ding. We're at the border. Ding ding. Thank you Mandy. I hadn't realized. No stopping in yellow area. Okay what is this? Like one of them X-ray machines that you drive through? Okay. Okay. Why is this pickup truck here beside me? What's going on? Oh I want to be in this lane here. What is that pickup doing here? He almost drove right into me. This is the wrong side for pickups man. You're supposed to go with the cars. When the sign says trucks they're referring to big trucks not little pickup trucks. Alright so that was the border crossing. That's where they looked at my ID, my paperwork, asked me 20 questions, and then let me into their country. So now I'm officially accepted into the United States of America as a visitor here for the purpose of work. That right there is a good old flag of United States. You got the prisoners of war missing in action. And at the bottom there you got the flag of Ohio. I don't know why it's split at the end like that. It's not blowing very well right now either is it? Not very windy here today. Yes we are in the great state of Ohio. Nice little rest area here. A couple more trucks over there. Time to take our break. It is break time diesel. How do you feel about break time right now? I think I could take you out there. Do you need to go outside? What did you just say? I said you need to go inside? That's why I thought what you said man. I would like that very much but it's very much. Got my eye on that patch of grass over there. I'd really like to say hello to it man. You sure? You don't want to stay in the truck? You want to go outside? Well how many times I gotta tell you man. He's just dazing out there. I don't want to see the grass. Diesel. You and your obsession with grass. Let's take the poor fella outside. Let's take him outside. Come on man. Yes there's been other dogs here I promise you. So here's the little park that they got set up for everybody here at the rest area. It's actually very nice. Sort of want to let diesel run around a little bit but I want to go further into the back corner there where we can just be by ourselves. That tree back there they're seriously like six to ten squirrels running up and down it. Diesel hasn't noticed yet. We're gonna go see if we can see them. They're very sneaky. They hide on the other side of the tree right? They're here somewhere. They're hiding on the other side of the truck. Sneaky sneaky. Do you guys see them? They're here somewhere. They probably hear me talking. Oh they're little sneaky little guys. Hey look at it. You're not even moving. I see you. I see you. Where's the other ten? Look at him. He just sort of blends right in eh? Crazy little guy. Told you there were squirrels in there. You didn't believe me. Squirrels right there. We moved. Where'd he go? Diesel. I just realized I've been sitting here for like 15 minutes staring up at that tree. If anyone's watching me over there they're probably like what is that guy doing? I live with a dog. Sometimes I guess he just rubs off on me a little bit and you go squirrel and you go sit at the bottom of the tree and stare at them. Alright diesel that's what we do. That's what we do. We're in shades. See that? Back here buddy. You like your shades man? Look pretty snazzy didn't they? I'm gonna have to get you shades now are you gonna leave them on like that guy did? Huh? Are you just gonna knock them off right away? You better wear them. That's pretty cool. Alright we're ready to leave here. We need to continue on our way. We got about five and a half six hours of driving left to do today yet. Let's go. The customer dropped the trailer here. We're actually picking up a load at the exact same place. That doesn't happen very often. So I'm just pretty much switching trailers I guess that does happen. Switching trailers but this isn't really a trailer switch. I'm dropping off product that I picked up for them in Canada and I'm picking up product that they make here with that same product that I brought down here for them and I'm bringing it back up to Canada. So it's actually two different kinds of loads. It's really strange that way. That makes sense. Anyways it's a irregular thing for me but anyway so I dropped my trailer here. The people told me where they wanted it. They're not going to unload it probably until Monday anyways. So they assigned my paper thing saying that they received the trailer and they said that the trailer I'm picking up isn't ready yet. So they told me where I could park right here and so I'm right here at the customer. I'm going to take my 10 hours here or however long it takes them to finish the trailer. I'm almost out of hours anyways and even if I did go to a truck stop from here like I left myself enough time to be able to get back to a truck stop but they're all going to be full and packed anyways right and the guys here knew that they're like you're not going to get a parking spot anywhere is at this time of night why don't you just stay here. Thank you very much I will absolutely. You guys ever go on to Google Earth or Google Maps and get totally lost and distracted for like an hour when all you went on there to do is just like one quick little thing. I just went on a virtual Street View tour of Perth Australia. Beautiful city you guys got down there. The way you guys drive on the wrong side of the road is just crazy. I would love that if I ever come down to Australia or anywhere that drives on the left hand side. I'm renting a car. If they let me you're going to steal one if they don't let me. I'm just kidding don't steal cars. It's bad that was a joke. People take everything I say too serious. Well I will talk to you tomorrow morning. We will be right here in this exact same spot unless if my brakes don't work. That would be so weird if you like because I'm sort of parked on a hill here. I'm pretty much level sort of at the top but if my brakes are rolling down the hill I'd wake up at the bottom of the hill open the curtains. Something's different here so I can't put my finger on it but something's different. Good thing with trucks that's impossible because in order to release the brakes you need air pressure and my brakes aren't getting air unless if I sleepwalk and turn what if I were to sleepwalk and release the brakes. Now we're talking crazy. I need to go to bed. We'll see you tomorrow. 4am central time. Don't forget if you're new in the description. There's a big long list of links and all kinds of information you guys can check out. You can go back to past vlogs of mine over the past couple of years. I'll see you tomorrow. 4am central time.
