 We're at Starbucks again Actually, you know what it's not a secret anymore. It's not a secret I'm letting the world know I go to Starbucks See that wasn't so hard to say I go to Starbucks Cheers to a whole new world Timmy's your lineups are too long I'm sorry It's very difficult to get to Timmy's now as well. I think I explained this in other days The Timmy's in town is it's got road construction all around it, and it's not their fault. It's not their fault at all but I Go through the drives through here at Starbucks, and they they answer like hey, how was your day? Oh, yeah, what's you up to today? And they like start a conversation It's like they want to be your friend And maybe it's like that in other places, too But here's time back. They just seem really really friendly like like I said in past videos, so you know that goes a long way to Gaining my business. I'm not a morning person by any means until I get my coffee I'd rather not be around I'd rather be sleeping still But you know I get my coffee and if you make it a positive experience getting my coffee man That makes my day go by so much better. You know starts it off on a good It's gonna be a good day regardless, but now it's gonna be a great day Well, we just got here, and I went to grab the mail this morning just because we've been forgetting the last couple of days So I went and grabbed it and Well, well lucky here lucky here. It's time for trucker Josh to go in for his driver fitness physical exam We have to do this every five years I believe I Got to complete a physical exam to make sure I'm still healthy enough to drive a semi truck I'm not too worried about that. I'm just Hmm. I hate I hate being told I got to go see the doctor So what they do is they check my cardio health Metabolic a check for metabolic disease Musculoskeletal disease nervous system disease psychiatric disease or renal disease respiratory disease Diseases of the senses and any other conditions Check your cardiac system check for diabetes Anything anything that could possibly Anything I could possibly get in the way of me safely operating a tractor trailer on the highway So it's actually it's a good thing is to it's to protect all of you on the road because I know I'm healthy I'm not gonna have a problem passing this but There's a lot of people out there that may Be a danger when they're behind the wheel Because of their health Unfortunately, it's something that they can't control and it's it's tough to tell them that hey, I'm sorry You can't be a truck driver because of this health condition. It's a very tough call. I'm glad I don't gotta Do that. I'm glad I don't got to make those decisions and tell people that because that'd be very tough for me It'd be very very tough for me to hear that if If my health were to ever decline You know the trucking is what I do. It's who I am. It's what I love. It's what I grew up around It's all I know. I don't know anything else and being told by a doctor. That's sorry That's over would be a oh it would be crushing but it is for the safety of everybody on the road and At my age, I have to do it every five years. I've correct me if I'm wrong in the comments section every five years that Manitoba or yeah, my manitoba health like our health system here They will send out these letters to remind you So 2021 so my next one will be in 2026 But I'll have to it's my responsibility to make an appointment and My responsibility to show up there for the appointment and then my doctor fills out this paper that I have here and sends it in And then as long as I get the green light everything's good to go I'm still missing One of my horns Hope I'm gonna get that back These trucks back in the day used to have four horns up there one of our city trucks still has all nice Has it all set up all nice with the four horns? But I only got one Because the other one fell off last week and it hasn't been put back We'll see if they put it back on or not I Guess not a big deal. I hope they do all right, so We have air in all of our tires right now. I want to talk to you about this lift axle back here Do you see anything wrong with this situation right here? When you have your axle lifted off the ground like this sometimes it still touches and There's no brakes on it right it still turns You guys be very careful when you have your axle up That these are nowhere near right You want to get these far away from it slide them far away as best to bungee them up Up there or right at the back there so that it doesn't slide back while you're driving Otherwise when you go over a bridge connection and the trailer goes, you know suspension goes up and down over the bridge This tire touches the ground Starts turning if that thing is sitting right here It's gonna chew right into the tire And then you're completely defeating the purpose of having the axle lifted in the first place Unless if you're just lifting it to save money on tolls But for us we don't have tolls around here We lift this to save the tires so that we don't have to replace it as often But if you're gonna have your winch Right here digging into your tire every time you go over a bridge Well, you're defeating the purpose like I said, and you're gonna have to replace your tires even sooner than if you had just left it down Just make sure that that's not ever gonna be a problem that make sure they stay far away from it other than that all of our Lights should be working Same thing on this side you want to make sure that these winches Stay far away from that what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna drag them all the way up there yet And put a bungee on them so that it holds them up there, and then we'll be off I make sure you have your bar in here. I Usually have a bungee on this too just in case if this doesn't hold I don't like to rely just on this little thing here The bungee that just to hold it up there just in case that fails. I Always like to have fail safes everywhere just in case if one thing fails There should always be a backup securement on everything and just so you know what I'm talking about here with the bungee For this bar see this bar Sits in here All the way in there, so you want to keep it in there First of all I bring all of these right up against here. So that can't It can't go any further that way right and then this Main securement is in here, but your secondary securement is not this Because those can slide Even if you bungee them here. I Got this bungee hooked up to there It's that holds this thing in here. You don't want to lose this in the traffic. I Wouldn't be good. You don't want to lose anything into traffic. You don't want to lose anything off your load You never ever want anything to fall off your truck whether it's part of the load or part of the truck itself or trailer itself Always make sure and secure everything Absolutely everything and then look at it and think huh if that securement fails What's holding it on the truck? What's holding it on the trailer? There should always be a backup securement to everything just in case And maybe there should be a backup for the backup that's up to you Simple day there and back today Arborgan back Tomorrow I'm taking out the picker truck the boom truck the blue truck over there I've got two loads of logs to deliver got one load of logs going up to Asher and Manitoba one load Going to Steinback I'm gonna have to start a little a Earlier than usual tomorrow So means I'm going home having supper getting ready for bed Try to get to sleep earlier today. Oops There we go clean up tomorrow. I've got to move a few things over from 3006 to 30106 just like my hard hat You know my my chargers and stuff just so I'm ready for the day and We'll see No, let's get this window cleared first There we go Say I'm hoping they're gonna put that horn back on the top of my truck yet This is not that big a deal though But I have mentioned it twice today in the vlog though. I haven't mentioned it to them I did when we first or when I first brought the truck in they just had to cut the airline on it Just because it was like hanging off and I didn't want it flying out into traffic I'll say I was hoping we can put it back on there eventually, but They probably have to order in specific mounts for it for the top of the truck. I'm guessing It's not like we'd have a bunch of those lying around And how often do the horns fall off? Have I ever shown you guys yet or have I shown you the finished deck? There it is. I don't show the front of the house that much so I Guess I forgot to show you guys the finished work. I'm not quite finished yet. I mean from here I've still got to build a step Right here. It'll be about Well three boards wide, so it'll be a pretty wide step That'll come out here and rest off the concrete You can see exactly where the old step was already on the house. I've got to build that yet But they're all done. I'll give you a look here without the fisheye lens so you can actually There we go See and then the the step has got to be over here yet Realize that fisheye lens was kind of distorting it like usual First deck I have ever built by myself Hey boys You miss me. Oh my oh Diesel Mander didn't miss me. He's also glow Waiter Waiter, where'd you go? There he is Jesus cook grabbing some water Come on, let's go outside. Don't step on the wiener. Don't step on the wiener. Let's go And look at all these apples on the ground again so many This is just from today Oh, we're gonna have to start harvesting these Yikes, I don't know what Brit wants to do with them Do we eat them? Can we just eat them right off the tree? I've never had an apple tree before. I don't know They're huge Yikes Everywhere All over here Yes, I'm gonna Google it. You can laugh at me if you want Can I eat apples? off my tree Can you forge for and use wild apples? Have you given? The short answer is yes, they should be safe to eat should be You eat apples straight from the tree the apples growing on your tree should be safe to eat But throw away any fruit laying on the ground. It won't hurt your tree, but the salts will leave burn marks in your lawn What lawn although you your tree won't absorb any toxin from them your dogs feces are more serious Yeah, I get it the dogs might have peed on the ones on the ground this one I grabbed off the branch That's really good. I bit into the core a little bit there I'm gonna go have more I want to go eat some apples Hey, well the rules are you just don't eat them on the ground. So I guess we're just gonna eat them all before they hit the ground Hmm. That's good Well falls off so easy. I like my apple tree. I need to think all the ones laying on the ground right now are wasted I better make a point of picking all the rest of these apples off soon. You like apples too, don't you?
