 It's casing Ontario. I'm gonna go to the flying J. Gonna grab some fuel. Gonna park. Gonna go inside. Gonna have a shower. Gonna be nice and clean. Gonna feel good. It's parked there tonight in southern Ontario. If you're wondering, my lip is a little swollen today. No, I didn't get punched in the face. No, not today. I bit my lip last yesterday. I've been playing with it all evening yesterday and then I woke up and it was, you get it. I did not get punched in the face. Don't worry. That only happened once. You should have seen the other guy. I'm gonna go to a cabs gazing at my shower. My reload that was scheduled for tomorrow got cancelled. I told you that yesterday. But the good news is it got rescheduled. But it's loading the day after tomorrow. So I'm gonna have a reset, an unscheduled reset on the road. I'm gonna deliver this load tomorrow afternoon. Well, sorry, not tomorrow. I'm delivering this load tomorrow. I was supposed to reload the day after tomorrow, but now I'm only gonna be reloading the day after the day after tomorrow. So that's our good news and bad news. I'll be sitting around for a day in southern Ontario. Maybe I'll go find a theater theater and catch a movie. I don't know. We'll see. I haven't had a day off like this on the road in a long time. Maybe I'll just sit in the truck here and organize stuff and clean stuff. Maybe I'll just sleep. I don't know. The options are endless. Let's get... Oh, excuse me. Let's get on the road. Let's get some miles behind us. We have 600 miles to go today. It's about a thousand kilometers, so it's gonna be a full day. We're gonna be driving pretty late. We'll see how far we get. I do have to get there by tomorrow afternoon to unload though, so there's that. Got to wear my Scottish hat when I say that. I still have it. So I have one. Of course I do. I'm not giving that away. That was an awesome gift. That was from Tracy and Wadi in Scotland. Got to practice my Scottish accent. One day, one day in the far future, you know, I don't like talking about it, but Diesel's not going to be around forever. He's retired right now at home, but one day when he's gone and, you know, we're ready to move on a little bit. I hate talking about it like this, but what I'm trying to say is that the next little dog would get, I think I want to get like a little miniature schnauzer, like a Scottish, like a, and call him Gustav the Great, but he's gonna have a Scottish accent. Got to practice Scottish accent. Let's not think that far in the future though. Diesel's still got like 15, 20 years. He's only, what, 12? Turning 12 this year? No, he's turning 11. Is he turning 12? Oh my goodness. Okay, stop talking about it. Let's go. Oh, CB on. Easy, easy. Even though no one else up here will use this CB, whatever I have mine on. Lights are on. The truck is ready to go. All warmed up. Hopefully I'm not stuck. And I'm not. I'm going to check my trailer. It is attached. Nice. Brakes work and brakes release. Fantastic. Fantastic. What a good day. What a good day. I think I got my coffee down here. Yeah, we're ready to rock. Or if you're French, we're ready to lay rock and lay roll. It is all chained down and tight. Washer fluid is filled up. Oil is good. Engine's good. Tires are good. Lights are good. Another day of trucking. Let's go. This freight ain't going to deliver itself. Nice little town up here. There's not much up here on Highway 11, but it's a much flatter drive. Excuse me, I'm so sorry. Pardon me. A little gassy this morning. It's okay, old blue. I took the blame. It was me. I take Highway 11 because I want to be nice to old blue. These reels are pretty heavy behind me. They're not the heaviest load I've hauled, but they're heavy enough. And Highway 17 is 50 kilometers or 30 miles shorter, but there's massive hills that you got to climb. Lots of hills. Hard on the engine, having to pull that hard all the time. Highway 11, it's a little bit further around, but it's flat, right? Easier. Makes me feel better anyway. Who's this? Claude Giroux. Oh, hometown of Claude Giroux. What a place for Philadelphia Flyers. Every town in Canada has like a little shrine to the NHL hockey players that were born there and grew up there. So every Canadian NHLer has their own little signs and stuff in their hometown. Take hockey. Very serious. Very serious. I wish I had more time to watch it, but you know, life goes on. You got to work. And we don't have the channel. Though I think I can get it through Prime. I think I can get Hockey Night in Canada through Prime or Paramount Plus or something. I saw it there once. I was like, wow, no way. Saturday nights, Hockey Night in Canada. I got to confirm that yet though. That used to be a staple in every Canadian household. On CBC, what was it? Channel 6, Hockey Night in Canada with Dawn Cherry and Ron McClain. Dawn Cherry is an absolute legend. It's actually a pretty big town up here. Ontario has a lot of people. It's the most populous province of Canada. Most of them, most of the people live down in Southern Ontario where we're headed tonight, around the Toronto, Ottawa area. That's where actually the majority of Canadians live. The brutal weather of Manitoba, only the toughest of us. Flying Jay's just down the road. I'm going to shower first. I have two shower credits available. This is how their parking lot is set up. It'd be more of a hassle to go fuel up and then go all the way around and park. I'd rather just quickly park, go shower, and then we'll fuel and then go. Then I just have to do one loop. One loop of their parking lot. You'll see. You have to start considering building a bypass around town. It's a pretty busy street. It's gotten a lot busier since I started driving. I've noticed that last time when I came through here too. It's a lot going on. A lot more people up here than I think we realized. This guy was going here too. The pumps are on the left here. You've sort of got to do a loop around the yard to get fuel. And then if I want to park after I fuel, I've got to come back out here onto this busy road and then loop back around in the centre. Just be easier if I park, go fuel, no park, go shower, then fuel. Round and back in beside that guy who knows then. Road in here. It feels like it, right? It's all the snow is just packed in here. Actually, you know what? I changed my mind. I changed my mind. My reserve's right. I changed my mind. I'm going to go park over there in front of the pumps then I can just drive straight forward into the pumps. Right beside where this guy's backing into. Right beside this guy with Mr. Volvo. Oh wait, what's that guy doing? Once I've done my shower, I can literally just drive straight forward into the pumps. Hopefully there's not a long line up and I can just grab an FD1 and get fuel and go. Very nice. Oh, there it is. There it is. All right. Okay, so what I do now? The building's right there. I go into my app. Those of you who drive out here know this very well, but those of you who don't drive might not know. The way I reserve a shower is right through their app. Promote in the parking lot. Three available. So I say reserve a shower, reserve a shower. Boom, shower reserved. Now I have 10 minutes to get in there and get into the shower or it resets and they give it away to someone else. Isn't this kind of interesting? My wheel is so dirty, but my lug nut covers are clean. It's cleaner. But the only thing, the only thing clean on there is dirty. Maybe that's just my eyes. They're all dirty. It's all dirty. Who am I getting? Automatic lights. Nice. I was wondering where the light switch was there for a second. No, these are magic lights. You just walk in, they turn on. It's for fancy people. This is what we're working with. Okay, that's all you get. We are showered up, fueled up, fed, got our coffee, load is tied down nice and tight. Let's go to Southern Ontario. See what they've been up to. Haven't been there in a while after this pickup. I'm going. I'm going for it. I'm going to send it. Ontario 11 East for 113 kilometers. Lots of traffic coming in here. This is the place that we stopped at last time. Right across from the Husky, remember? Petro Pass has a gravel parking lot. Husky has a paved parking lot so everybody always fills up. Husky first. A lot of truck stop. Off on the right. Sign lit up. Gillers truck stop. For some reason their sign isn't lit up, which makes it a little difficult to see. All right, these big guys, the first size load headed back. That'd be an interesting ride back from Ontario. It's under 12 feet wide. I think 11 foot 8. So I've decided we're asking Pickering Ontario to stop there all the time. And if that place is full by the time I get there, there's another one down the road in the next town. It's your destination on the right side, 1715 Alliance Road. I think I'll be safe here. At least here I know no one's going to hit me or run into me or anything else. I'm out of the way. There's no signs that say I can't park here. I'm parking. I got to go to bed. So we'll be up in the morning again. We're going to go deliver these reels tomorrow. And then we're going to head to London, Ontario flying J where I'm going to do a reset. I have to wait till the day after. Okay, wait a second. Tomorrow I deliver these reels. The next day I was going to pick up my new load, my oversize. That's not happening. Now it's happening the day after tomorrow. So the day after the day after tomorrow. But it's after midnight already. So technically now it's the day after tomorrow. Either way, I'm going to be sitting in London, Ontario for a day just hanging out. Grab a shower, wander around a bit, maybe go for a walk, watch the Netflix, watch a lot of YouTube. We'll see what happens. Worry about tomorrow when tomorrow gets here. We'll worry about the day after tomorrow and the day after tomorrow gets here. Right now I'm going to worry about going to bed. Thanks for joining me today. Please hit that like button if you do like my videos. I appreciate that. I have a lot of videos. I have them all in playlists on my channel. You can go check them out if you like. All the way back to 2011. We started counting and doing our seasons. I think in season, we're in season 10 now, which is the 10th year of daily vlogs since I started counting. But I did start doing daily videos somewhat in 2011. So we've been doing this a little while. This is our 12th year. No. Yeah. Wow. Wow. I'm going to have to go and check that out. I was a bit of an inside joke. I'll have to explain it in another vlog. It's not my joke. It's Britt's joke. Most of my jokes are her jokes. Just so you know, I steal a lot of her funny content because she's a lot funnier than I am. And so she's always cracking jokes and then I take them and say them on the vlog. So disclaimer, a lot of my humor comes from my wife. So I'll see you guys tomorrow. Don't forget to hit the bell. Turn on all the notifications so you don't miss when my next vlog comes out. And we'll see you tomorrow.
