 Morning everybody. We're in Davidson, Saskatchewan, Western Canada. We're headed home today. We're about eight hours from our yard a couple hours after that. It'll be home Which means I'll be home this evening Probably home for a couple days after that. So I want to be home a little earlier, but It is what it is. What you gonna do? Let's go take a look at the load and make sure it's still there Wintery morning out here. My tarps are still there. My old tires still there bringing that back getting my money back for that thing And my load is out here All nicely tied down Beautiful no one stole it. Nice Anybody want any Doritos? I Think this guy might have a few bags with him. See if the trailer is still connected. I have checked it Just double-check it yank on the trailer brake just a little bit. Oh, yeah I am connected. Definitely connected trailer is not gonna fall off trailer brakes have engaged Trailer brakes have disengaged. I'm gonna go this way a little bit so I can see my my tires are turning since it's cold I'll make sure your brakes haven't seized or frozen up. Sorry That's a little bit make sure all my trailer tires are turning and they are In wintertime after a long day of driving your brakes can be a little warm and have condensation on them when you park And if you pull your trailer brakes too soon that condensation all freezes and it actually Freezes your brakes to the drum happens if you don't notice it one of your axles or one of your wheels could be frozen and Dragging on the pavement which creates a big flat spot on the tires And then not only or is it being hard on the trailer, but you'll probably have to replace those tires too, and that's you can get expensive We're just turning on to highway 11 here. We're gonna turn right and we're gonna go down south towards Regina and then west pardon me east It's too early East towards home sweet home Manitoba southern Manitoba The best part of Manitoba We're probably with 10 minutes away from the flying J Balgoni. I don't think we're gonna stop there today though So I had my coffee this morning, right? I don't quite need one just yet. I'm feeling great today though It's been a good day. This is the refinery Familiar Regina refinery Okay, oh so you want to turn okay, that's what your signals at least he's using this turn signal So I know what he's doing right? I know what you're doing Excuse me turn signals are amazing invention so many people have not discovered them yet We need to have like a a Turn signal awareness day be like a holiday where we celebrate the use of turn signals Great like Christmas. Maybe then people will use them properly like that last guy did About six hours and we'll be Be at the yard then so that will bring us to about six o'clock 6 p.m. I Wanted to be home before Brit got back from work. She works till 4 30 today, so that didn't happen At least I get the evening at home today two full days and most of Saturday So there are some home time videos coming I guess Heads up whenever I I don't give you guys a heads up There's always like one or two people in the comment section you've been at home forever get back to trucking I'm not allowed to have home time apparently according to some people I'm actually very lucky because Where I live is right dead center in the middle of most of my routes So I get to stop by home quite often So I'm always going right past home back and forth and back and forth That's sort of why Winnipeg and southern Manitoba is the trucking hub For the most part especially for Western Canada a lot of the freight moves through there And all we got to do is get the The people in charge of the road systems in Manitoba to understand this that they take those traffic lights down They've gotten quite a bit of snow out here in the past day or two. I missed that whole thing Wow, there wasn't this this film wasn't here on our way out west was it? We're in southeast to scratch one right now She went around Wolsey. I think We've got a little ways to go yet Or about an hour east of Regina It's that time of year again, though I have a feeling this year. There's gonna be a lot of snow with all the rain we've had this fall I think it's just gonna turn into snow and we're just gonna be buried under a thick blanket of snow all winter Which I'm fine with as long as we can keep it off the roads, you know Maybe it won't be as cold then you know if we get lots of snow Maybe we at least won't get the deep freeze, you know, what do they call it the polar vortex? They got to make a sound like the end of the world every winter when it comes comes down from the Hudson's Bay, right? They all act like oh my the world is ending look at how cold it's getting Yeah, they got just as cold last winter even colder the winter before I know it drives Brent crazy Drives are crazy how people freak out over winter every year or in summertime how everyone freaks over how hot it gets It happens every year Or in summertime how everyone freaks over how hot it gets and that's where we're at Got a little Editor helper here He's been very helpful very helpful poking my leg all the time whenever I make a mistake, which has been every two seconds Yep, thank you very much wiener Thank you very much. So the whole family's here except for Brett Brett's at work. That's why I'm getting my editing done We got the the golden boy The chevster Right We got the diesel the weasel the diesel weasel. Oh look at me. Hey guys. Hey guys He's doing my bow Thank you for watching me You're so awkward diesel We got a big Frank over here Hey, say hi to everybody. Hi y'all. I'm going back to bed. All right, cool So Brits at work right now, I'm getting the rest of my editing done I just got to finish this clip and I'm all caught up all I've got to do I've edited Five vlogs today. So the last five vlogs over the last five days that you watched I edited right here just now So my videos are usually about a week behind That's just to give me time to get everything done because when I'm on the road I don't always have time to edit videos every night Sometimes you just got to get her done and get the freight delivered, right? Everybody wants their freight yesterday So we get that done and then I come home and then while Brett's at work I do this and I catch up It feels good right now. All I got to do is add this clip in there Which you're watching right now and go to add that and then I'm done. That's it And then I don't know what we're gonna do yesterday when I was walking the dogs at night out here I heard something moving around in the bush over there. It sounded big and Last time I was at home. I was doing laps around our yard just going for a little bit of a nature hike trying to get my Belly to go down a little bit, but I walked about six kilometers or five four four and a half miles just going around the property and I saw some droppings Over there that were not dog droppings that were not deer droppings that were not beaver droppings But they didn't look like bear droppings either or coyote or wolf dropping. I don't know what it was I Researched it a little bit, but I only want to spend so much time researching poop so Maybe if it's still there. Well Ask you guys what it looks like to you you hunter outdoorsman. I've never seen it before so It could have been dog could have been one of our dogs, but They must have been a little sick that day. I don't that's enough talking about that. You guys get the point I don't know what it was but something was out there and last night. I heard something big moving around out there I was standing right in front of the house right here Right here and the dogs were all perked up and looking at the bush over there, right diesel was Diesel was over here Chevy was over here They both had their ears just perked straight up and just hair standing up and looking at the bush over there And then I heard like something moving in there something bigger than a deer Seen a couple of deer walks through our yard this morning already And they don't make a lot of noise when they slowly saunter through the bush But this was like a something with it sounded like bear paws or something Hopefully not it could have just been my imagination, but the dogs heard heard it too So I'm gonna go out there and check see if I can see some footprints or anything See where it goes to and if it was a bear well We're gonna have to take care of that have to go track it down to find it before it tracks me down and finds me Or worse one of these guys Right Anyways, thanks for watching my vlogs guys. I appreciate it. I make new vlogs pretty much every day when I'm at home I don't always film But that's because I'm spending time with family and somebody's wanting to get hold of me right now I'm talking to you find people you guys are important too But yeah, I make a new video most times when I'm on the road other times we go exploring out in our woods when I'm at home But I appreciate it hit that thumbs up button if you thought the video was good You thought it was bad give it a thumbs down if you thought it was good share it with your friends So they can enjoy it too if you thought it was bad share it with your friends that they can see how bad it is too And we all win.
