I'm actually feeling pretty good It's pretty cold outside not as cold as it has been. It's minus 21 Celsius Right outside my windows. I've had my bunk heater going all night, so I'm Good and warm inside the truck. My engine heater has now been Warming up my engine for about an hour and 45 minutes So I'm gonna jump out open the hood check the oil check everything else make sure that it's ready to turn over I'm gonna turn it over get her started. Hopefully she starts. Oh, you will I don't doubt you don't worry You'll look get everything warmed up moving get myself woken up grab a coffee have breakfast and in an hour. I Want to be rolling out of here. I'm insane gas Manitoba I've got to get to a town called Garson Manitoba, which is just northeast of Winnipeg. I Have this big Cylinder on the back of my truck It's a little bit oversized about 8 foot 6 wide about 3 inches over on each side. It's not that big We're gonna unload that with a crane at 10 30 The time is now a quarter after 8. It's an hour drive to get there So I figure if I leave here. Oh 45 minutes to an hour. I'll be there 9 o'clock No, I'll be there 10 o'clock 10 15 Get that crane to offload me and then That's the plan for today. All right, let's get the day going Shoes are cold shoes are cold My bunk heat has been warming up the cab But this was underneath the I guess my bag or whatever so no warm air was getting to my shoes Cold feet. All right cold Not that kind of cold feet though Not getting cold feet for the day. I'm ready for the day. We're gonna take this day on we're gonna make this day hours belongs to me It's gonna be a good day. Yeah, it's definitely cold outside. It's definitely cold. Everything's good. Everything looks good. That's Let's wake the truck up give it a second here let it cycle through Okay, I'll blow Now's your time to shine Temperature here says only minus 17. Okay, not bad. Here we go. The time has come. It is time Buckle ourselves in so we don't fall out lights on Window cracked. I like my fresh air CB on GPS set GPS double checked so I know it's not gonna lead me down some dark alley Where it would do unspeakable things just got to double check my visual check that my trailer is coming with me Spike those brakes That trailer is attached the brakes work the brakes release. Oh, what's a good day? It's a good day. All right. Let's get out of here. Yeah, I was trying to drag a trailer over this curb here. I Parked myself right up against it stay on everybody's way Beacons on you hear that sound. Yeah, I mean, it's gonna be a good day Another way you could tell that it's gonna be a good day is by the way that it smells outside Smells like burning diesel fuel Oh, you always know it's gonna be a good day when you wake up and smell that when you get out of the truck You don't want to smell that inside the truck Of course the ultimate way you can tell it's gonna be a good day is when you hear this That's a course of angels right there. Would you say Karen? I wasn't listening Burn left I Know where I'm going. Why are you telling me where to go? silly when they put stop signs in the median should be a yield sign in my Unprofessional opinion, I guess you call a suburb of Winnipeg. Just on the southwest side Saint-Nobal a little French community, but everyone speaks English Up the trees. He said they'd be pretty obvious. The store is downtown store and gas Pricer $1.50 still Jacket just standing on the side of the road right gonna stop out here and they can tell me where they want me They're just setting up the second crane Right down there. This one's gonna lift up this side. That's gonna lift up that side. We're gonna be the out of here Not every delivery is this exciting two big cranes just for me Makes you feel kind of special, you know So I've got the chains off in the front, but I've left the chains on at the back There's still four chains just holding it on it's on the saddles on the trailer. So it's not going anywhere, but You know just until they get it all rigged up and leave those chains on Get these saddles down here. This whole tank is 38,500 pounds They're standing it up And they're gonna move it out of my way and I'm gonna back out of here That is cool. It's definitely not every day. I guess you do a delivery like this. I told them I don't want to be the reason for the next safety meeting So once they get it moved out of the way and stood up like they have now I'm gonna move it out of the way And then the guy in the yellow jacket right there. He's gonna tell me to back out And I'm gonna back out Right into here Gonna nose in there and then they're gonna guide me and spot me out onto the road over there Pretty neat, eh? I've been around trucks my whole life and this still just is super exciting for me Job complete. Got a compliment from the customer there For a job well done and being on time. We are on our way to Kanora We're in another rounder I'm gonna pick up a load of lumber there take it down to Brainerd, I believe and then I think it's where it's going and then we'll see what we got for a load back home after that So I'm up near Boziger I'm gonna take highway 12 south down to highway one Which will shoot me towards Kanora These are snowmobile highways or you have to buy a snow pass to use them When I was younger it was 60 bucks a year now. I'm guessing it's probably double or triple that but I don't have a snowmobile right now I guess I don't know Gonna keep the same tri-axle trailer And just goes straight to Kanora This lovely truck. You'll just have to trust me. I'm in Fort Francis, Ontario I have another load of lumber behind me. I've got it tarped and I'm heading into Minnesota I just stopped here to make sure all my paperwork is all in order. Everything is good I double-checked to make sure my customs clearance was done and that I'm cleared to cross. I am made sure I have my ID Just now close by. We're gonna try to get down to Deer River again tonight Sleep there again and then tomorrow Go the rest of the way down to Brainerd and it might be going home empty from there or I might have a reload We'll see either way. I have to go home tomorrow Getting tired so not getting any closer to Deer River sitting here. Let's get back out there We are in the River of Deers Better known as Deer River, Minnesota That's where we're gonna pull in for the night. I really hope that there's a spot for us. They only have five Last time we were here. There's no one just me That was kind of nice So tomorrow we're gonna go that way Today we're gonna go that way. It's like nobody's here again. There's a drop trailer there though That doesn't count as somebody I'm glad when there's parking, right? They don't get me wrong, but I sometimes I start to worry I'm like, why is no one else parking here? You know, we're not supposed to park here No, it is parking. I've checked it's a narrow little street. I guess it's such a small community It's off the beaten path. There's not much truck traffic coming through here, right? Good job, old blue Another day is done. Let's go do our post trip and make sure nothing fell off Great news. Nothing fell off It's a good day told you it's gonna be a good day. You didn't believe me Never had anything fall off yet, but I know off Truck is all good Ready to go for tomorrow again. We'll double check everything on the pre-trip again tomorrow Make sure that it's all set and good to go. We'll be out of here pretty early Let's see here You have zero hours and 41 minutes of remaining drive time, so I had 41 minutes left on my clock Not quite enough to get to where I was going. I need about an hour and 15 minutes to an hour and a half And 41 minutes is not gonna cut it. So here we stay And go back there Clean up a little bit Crawl under that nice warm blanket turn on my bunk heater. It's not that cold It's like minus three Celsius like Probably high 30s and Fahrenheit Man, I'm gonna hit that pillow and I bet you I will be sleeping before my face even touches it It's gonna be great lock myself in so I don't escape Thanks for joining me today everybody It was an exciting day those two cranes this morning, right?
