 going to steal a quote from my uncle Tom on Brit's side of the family and say that the first five days after the weekend are the hardest. We're on day number one. We've got a stepdeck 117D. Hook this up. We're going to pull us all with a canora and go grab us some culverts and bring them back here. I'll bring them back to Alda Shane the town next door here. I got to find two risers though. So they want a stepdeck but they want two risers. Makes you kind of wonder why don't you just want a flatbed then? But hey I guess I'll find out. Guess I'll find out. The answer is all come in time. We're taking this trailer to Canora which is in Ontario so we're leaving the province today. Very exciting. Very excitement. There's turning on to the perimeter we're going to head east down the trans-Canada. In this morning which is very nice for the farmers I'm sure. I bet it wasn't enough Phil. We're supposed to get thunder showers and I heard a lot of thunder and I felt a few drops. Drought here in Manitoba this year. Motorcycle riders like myself I've been enjoying the summer quite well. I've been struggling so a little bit of rain would help them out quite a bit. It's supposed to be hot hot hot again and it is July. August is usually our hot month. I wonder where the geese and the ducks have been having it out all summer. Let's see who's got control today. The ducks. Go team duck. I guess the Canadian chicken cobras are gonna have to find another pond. Looks like the ducks are holding control of that pond. Good for them. Good for them and cobras can get pretty violent. Three, four hour drive, four hour drive east I think to Canora. I'm thinking. Like I said before we're picking up culverts and just bringing them back to Ildeshane. Dropping them off and that'll probably be the day. It's not a nice easy day for us. They just cruising. I don't think culverts will be too hard to tie down as long as they're bundled properly. Canora is about two and a half hours away. Two to two and a half hours not four hours. I don't know what I was thinking. Those not even that far. Two hours there will load up maybe take about an hour let's say hour and a half. So it takes two and a half hours there three is four hours. Two and a half hours back five six and a half seven ish hours about stop for coffee on the way back. Seven hours and we should be back unload there and another hour eight hours back at the yard. So between eight and nine hours and my day should be over. That's actually a pretty good day. It's a pretty standard good day. I usually work between oh well every day varies. It really depends on what I'm doing that day. Sometimes I work an eight hour day but most days are around eight to ten hours somewhere in there and sometimes the days stretch out a little longer past ten hours depending on what the day brings and what's needed. We're just going to pull into the petrol pass over here where deacons corner just east of Winnipeg in Manitoba quickly swing in here make sure that we're all set and ready for the highway. This is a very popular tourist stop. It's the right outside of Winnipeg so most everybody that's either going to Ontario or coming from Ontario usually stops here usually. I mean I'm talking cars. Semi trucks a lot of them go past here they stop on the west side of Winnipeg if they're going past. There's a Flying J truck stop a Husky truck stop on the west side. I always went around to the west side because they have better coffee there at the Flying J. I love that bean to cup but since I'm not going to the west side today I'm going east we're stopping here. I can find a gear that wants to agree with me. There we go. There you go you just got to keep knocking at the door until you find one right. People ask me if I clutch double clutch or float the gears. I float the gears. I'm not gonna be double clutching all day man. I'll have like my left leg will be the size of the rocks you know and my right leg will just be very disproportionate. No no no no I float the gears that use the clutch as little as possible. I choose this parking spot. This one right here. What does that say? Oh wow. Do not stack Fort Severn. I don't think you should stack that one. Got this feeling. I think that's going to Fort Severn. Pretty good feeling about that too. I'm not even straight in my spot. Oh we're not gonna be here long. Okay okay okay I can't help it. I have to straighten out. I have to straighten out. I can't leave myself crooked even for two minutes. I'm not even going inside. I have to park straight. Have to. Everything's got to be neat and organized all the time. Most times. My wife may disagree with that statement that I am not always neat and organized. I know what to tell you. Sometimes I'm neat and organized and other times. See what's at the end of the street. I can see that there's some trees or something there. I can't quite make out what exactly is there yet. Pretty close by. Around here or any of you under evacuation orders or anything. The smoke looks out over the water. Into the smoke for people's health who live here in all this. I'm such thick smoke all day. I'm glad I get to go home. It is smoky at home too but not nearly this smoky.
