 We have a load waiting for us in Thief River Falls, Minnesota. We're gonna go pick it up. We won't bring it back here Hello there old girl. Hope you had a good weekend. It's time to go start her up Warm her up She's taking me to Minnesota today You guys ever have this problem too? Every vehicle I ever own The the spring that sucks the seat belt back in goes bad or something and the seat belt never wants to go back Just me okay. It's Monday morning. Who cares? Let's get all our stuff in there. Let's check the oil. Let's uh, let's get at it. I Could have taken diesel with me today, but I decided not to Not today yet Make sure everything's good to go. We're just hooked it in. I turned on all the lights the hazards the reason why I put that strap on there is to Check both lines here. So we have the emergency line open The trailer brakes have been released. So we have air flowing through here We want to make sure that there's no air coming out of that joint right there those O-rings when you pull down The trailer brakes like I have with that carb strap there the air flows through this blue one You want to make sure that there's no air leaking out there as well So we're good. So there's air flowing through both of those right now Also by having that handbrake spiked for the trailer It also turns on the brake lights Just going back here making sure all the tires are filled with air that we have no flats So when you come to the back of your trailer You can check and make sure your brake lights are working And your hazards are on to make sure your signals are working on both sides And when the signal turns off, obviously you can see that the tail lights are working as well So that's good. Three center lights are working just quickly make sure that License plate lights working that just makes it a lot easier. You don't have to go back and forth all the time You can also check back here make sure that there's no leaks on the brakes Trailer bags are filling with air That's good So all the lights are working on this trailer and the brakes Airlines everything's good. So we're good to go We're going to pull this down a thief river falls Look at these green boxes on my trailer behind me snow machines Guess everybody's getting ready for winter already That time of year again Canadian pacific we're still here in the u.s. I guess that train's waiting for clearance to Cross back into canada. We're on our way back. We're headed north right now. I've noticed that uh On my phone This is the first phone i've ever had That uh has local time and my home time So they're both exactly the same as 224 here and at home because I live straight north of here even when I was over the road I don't know if that's a setting that's on my phone. I have a samsung galaxy s20 plus So i'm not sure if that's a setting or It just comes like that naturally or or naturally from the you know, you know what I mean Crossing back into canada at tollstoy, which is a little different for me There's a lot of trucks going down here though So usually I'd head out this way to emerson manitoba, but now we're crossing at tollstoy manitoba from Lancaster, minnesota Usually you can't cross here, but for some reason With these green boxes I can but if they're different boxes, I can't They must have some kind of agreement or something I had to have different paperwork and everything special paperwork to get us to be able to cross here Waiting for me there and expecting me And bring this load up to the yard that'll be it for today I got a little bit of a later start because of this different kind of border crossing I had to have different paperwork in the morning And it's the first time I've done this so I had to have specific paperwork And the dispatcher that was supposed to give it to me this morning didn't come in I don't know if he didn't feel uh, he might not have felt well this morning probably stayed home because he was sick and uh Anyways a little bit of confusion So I didn't get out of there around 8 30 9 o'clock and I wanted to be out of there before 7 So had I gotten going at the time I wanted to I would have been back at the yard already I might have even been able to go get a second load, but this will be the only one I do today And tomorrow we're headed up to Toulon I'm just bringing this back to our yard and from there taken on by another driver DMC wasn't it must be hard to find parts for those trucks already These trucks are old And back on the canadian side that's kilometers an hour again not miles an hour Got construction coming up here just inside the border Today would have been a perfect day to take diesel along. I really wish I would have maybe tomorrow Tomorrow, I know I'm going to Toulon. So it's not a really long trip tomorrow Toulon is just like an hour uh hour north but maybe I asked in the office today just to be sure Before I took diesel with me. I wanted to be sure that uh, they didn't mind And I said, oh, no take take them with every day. They don't mind. They don't mind if I diesel with me every day I mean, I'll have a bed for them here. My bag then would be underneath there and this would all just be a big Big bed, right? So we could lay down and we could go for a walk get for lunch and stuff. They'll think about it tonight See how diesel feels about it. I'll ask him if he wants to go I have a feeling. I know what his answer is going to be though If it were up to him, he'd be here right now He's going to be so upset that I didn't take him today Lights are off That was it just a quick trip up to or down to thief river falls and back I guess it depends on where you live I guess for the majority you probably uh thief river falls is probably up on the map For me, the united states is down. So you guys are south of us So you're south of the border to me I said that on uh, one of my videos last week I said, oh, we're going south of the border and I think like 90% of you thought I meant Mexico Uh, I knew that was going to happen and I thought it was funny All right, so I have decided something Do you want to know what I have decided? I've decided that tomorrow Diesel's coming on the truck with me Oh, I'm excited. So we're going to get his whole bed set up here Well, it's all set up already right now. I've just got my My backpack here with all my tools and stuff. It's got like, you know, my folder and my water my coffee thermoses my tools Here's my lunch kit I'm going to have this bag. These pillows are under here right now. Those pillows are going to be up here So that the pillars that say pillars those pillows are going to be up here so that diesel can lay on them And put a blanket across there as well And this bag is going to go under here. That's why I built it like this. I know it's uh Not built the best I threw it together It does the job Maybe we'll make a better one in the future. Those were actually supposed to be pushed up against there, but I'm a truck driver. I'm not a carpenter. Okay I whipped it together and in an afternoon And the whole time I thought that I'd be sent out on a load right away So I'll just quickly whip in it together so that if I if I got a load assigned to me I could quickly run out with it, right? About whatever and then I'll be up here And his water will probably be between the seats. I'm thinking I'm gonna figure it out tomorrow. Let's be a little bit of figuring out. We'll get to work a little early and See what happens And see how this old trusty bed holds out I'm excited. I'm gonna bring his steps along too. And I remember I had those foldable steps I go on here and uh during the day or when I don't need them. I'm gonna strap them down onto there I'm gonna put those uh Corners in one of my bins here, and I'm gonna use that two inch strap to strap down diesel steps So they're easy to get to and I can just quickly join come off of there Filling them out here and he can go out and do his stuff It should be good I'm excited Diesel guess what? Guess what? Tomorrow you're coming with me on the road man You're coming with me in the truck You would be so much more excited if you weren't hoping I'm gonna open this door right now and feed you. Are you hungry? Yeah, that's the one. I was just guarding it man. Yeah the food's in there. There's my old man food right there Right there. Yeah, he won't This is diesel's new food that we're slowly moving on to Performatrin senior large breed formula We had him on the grain free. We have it in there actually because Chevy needs to be on the grain free I think we've uh explained this to you guys once already, right? Chevy has to be very careful with him. He's got some allergies to grains, but Since we had him on the grain free. We also had diesel It was just easier at throwing the same food, but the vet has told us now because of diesel's heart murmur He really needs to have grains in his diet that he shouldn't be on grain free food It's not exactly as healthy as they market it to be Some dogs need to be on grain free like Chevy Other dogs if they don't absolutely have to be on grain free you should be giving them Grains with their food according to our vet. I'm not a vet. So we're gonna follow the advice on our vet to help him with his heart murmur Hopefully get that fixed or at least prevent it from getting any worse. He's 10 years old now and I want him to live to be like 20 Maybe 50 But he said he's 50 years You can do it, man You can do it. Look at look at big Frank. He's like a hundred years old Now you can do 50 Thank you, Mike Farron. You're doing pretty good for your rage Frank. I know man Chevy's four years old wiener is 11 But I got to feed these guys right now. It was just a short little day up to thief river falls. I should have brought diesel today Uh, a couple people even asked me. Where's diesel you bring diesel today? Not today, but I should have it would have been a perfect day for it. I was in the truck driving all day and just going for a long cruise Missed opportunity, but we're not gonna miss tomorrow So we'll see you right here on the channel and be prepared for some trucking weasel How about that? He's a lot more excited when I when I told him before he got really excited.
