 Good morning everybody another day is upon us Just on our way to the truck. I didn't take much stuff home. I pretty much just took my computer home the weasel and A few pieces of laundry that I had to wash, but I was only gone for two days I was just stopping at home for a reset now on my way down to St. Cloud, Minnesota close to Minneapolis We're not actually going into Minneapolis, but we're gonna get there tonight. It's about seven-hour drive or so and And deliver in the morning and see what the low gods have for us then This is all I had brought home So it wasn't too much to transfer back and forth Weasel back there already doing his weasel business What is your weasel business diesel usually you do your weasel business outside? That's not the weasel business I'm talking about Just talking about he's just chillaxing. Yeah, that's I said it what I use that word. Don't look at me like that Let's get this baby started There she is Did you miss me? So nice Fellow trailer with air Get the lights going and do a little walk around make sure that everything's working make sure the tires have air inside them Pressurized to the right degree Get some heat going. It's a little chilly Bear apparently we've had a Siberian cold front come into Manitoba So I've heard the we had an extremely windy day yesterday and apparently these winds came all the way from Siberia on the other Side of the northern hemisphere. It was on the planet came over the North Pole and came down over Canada, so thanks Russia for all your cold weather like we didn't Have enough of that ourselves. I think we're doing just fine without your help, but thank you I'll be sure to send some back to you That's cold I'm hoping we're not gonna get snow out of all of this It's uh 12 degrees out right now right at 12 degrees. It's not that cold, but you know It's cold. I found my old hat. It's not really that old. It is a little dirty, but that Is why it is now my truckin hat I always like to save my best hats for just when I'm at home and then I when I get a new one That one becomes my truckin hat because my truck trucking hats for some reason get dirty when they're on the road I don't I guess I touch them a lot moving around they fall on the ground all stuff It's my new truckin hat What do you guys think? The only parking spot I could find for this thing I've been at home for the last day and our yard has just been Right packed. I don't know if I could do this Yeah, okay You know what I'm gonna do. Oh, oh, yep. Oh, oh, I figured it out Can't hold me back. Oh Gotta make sure this trailer is sealed this is the seal that the load came with that Means that this trailer has not been opened since it got loaded This is the seal for the US border. This shows the border that it has not been opened and People have not thrown stuff in here. That shouldn't go over the border and you know You can't get that off. There's no way to get this off without bolt cutters. So if that breaks That's a big deal This girl needs a wash look at this dirty Maybe we can stock for a wash on the way down That would be nice. I like to have a clean truck. I Only get one wash per month for these trucks Sometimes you need a little bit more than that especially in winter time winter time these trucks are filthy all the time But what can you do? That's the climate we live in. I mean Winter time is messy Let's not talk about winter yet right on Look I'm gonna start from here Why do you do this sometimes? Let her do her thing. Let her ding away. Okay There we go, I don't know what's up with that. Okay, so We have what about 700 700 kilometers to go Down to Minnesota. It's close to Minneapolis where we're delivering not into the city Not into the just so it's side the city, but I believe it's about you know I need to put this address into my GPS anyways We'll figure that out Everything's all good to go on the truck now though Trying to get this up to speed. Oh, there it is. That's all the address already Navigate Navigate you navigate your navigating navigate the navigating 633 kilometers Proceed to the highlighted route got across at Pembina, North Dakota Let's see six hundred and thirty three Kilometers divided by one point six one 393 point one six seven seven zero one eight six three three five miles Precisely All righty boys and girls. Let's get this show on the road Gonna get a truck wash in Fargo tonight at the Blue Beacon Got a PO number for it So since it's not my truck I can't just go and wash the truck and send them the bill they want to I guess because some guys wash the truck every day, which is Not a bad thing But I guess since they give us one per month, I get a PO number I can pay for it myself to have this wash the truck wash if I want to but That comes out of my pocket then The PO number I got now Partures into them and not me So let's go we're about an hour or 15 minutes from the US border. I'm gonna stop in St. Adolf at the Flying J there Grab myself some coffee Wash the windshield because I only washed half the windshield yesterday Or the day before whenever I was such a rush to get home This also reminded me to pick up washer fluid as well because I don't pay for that either again It's not my truck. So you can see that half has not been scrubbed. You see I did that on purpose So that when I got into the truck today just now I'd remember to pick up washer fluid and it worked So I got lots of washer fluid now and a PO for a truck wash And we are screaming fast so we can go 100 kilometers an hour down towards america Someone down in minnesota wanted some good old canadian lumber. I've got it in the box behind me It's the same lumber I used to haul on the flatbeds Except I put it in the van trailer now That's why I always wonder like why are we putting all this fray like a lot of the freight we put on the flatbeds We could just throw in a van trailer like what I'm pulling now. It's so much easier You don't have to tarp it you just close the doors, right? I don't know they haul a lot of this on flatbeds, but yeah, I got the same stuff in the van trailer right now It's going down to near minneapolis somebody there like I said wanted some lumber We're gonna bring it to him so they can build something So I got 15 minutes down the road and I forgot That I forgot my paperwork Does that make sense? I forgot that I forgot Had to come back for the paperwork So I can show the border and also my cover sheet is called the cover sheet that is when I get to the border guard or the Customs and Border Patrol agents so that they know who I am where I'm going what I'm hauling and all that funds to wait an extra half hour Because of the hole for getting the paperwork thing. So this is 2020 after all as you can tell The truck is pretty dirty and needs a wash It's usually a lineup it's sort of got the entrance hidden away over here. There is an enter sign on the right here, but If you're new here like my first time when I came here it might be a little uh confusing how to get into the truck wash Oh, and there's no lineup They put these rocks here so that we don't Get out of line, I guess I want to make sure you don't drag your trailer over them because that wouldn't be very uh Helpful at all truck in front of me. What are they closed? I want me to go to they're both open We're gotten to a blue beacon before where there's absolutely nobody in front of me Just the truck today probably the more popular one. I just got a p.o. Number so okay diesel Looks like they're just getting ready for us in there Cleaning the floor and stuff making it all nice and clean Oh, here we go Even us in you can always do a better job, but better than it was Look at this here, man. They actually did a pretty bad job All that there look at this Wow, it's actually a pretty bad job. We might have to get them to go do it again They never do a hundred percent, you know, and it's expensive These truck washes are anyways from like, you know 50 to 75 even more dollars American You'd expect it to be spotless, but you always sort of leave a little bit disappointed for the money you spent But hey, I guess if you want the job done right you should do it yourself Take this opportunity to walk the weasel Stretch his legs a little bit Stretch my legs a little bit and yes, those are crocs. I'm wearing my wife hates them Look at this big open area diesel Can I trust you if I take you off the leash here? There's a fence stopping him from getting to the road Don't disappoint me. Okay. Hey wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait Hold on buddy. Hold on. Let me get closer to you. Hold on Only got one hand to work with here. Okay Don't disappoint me bud You listen when I call you It's got the fence there so uh, he can't get onto the road right and it's this big open grass area all the trucks are Back here's no one else out here. Whatever. I've got this big giant leash. It's actually called a giant flexa leash. It's apparently made in Germany Go figure something not made in China I like to let him stretch his legs out whenever he can Come here, bud Not that way Not that way. Don't disappoint me bud. I told you diesel. Come here Come here, bud You have this whole open grass area and he goes to the gravel. There you go, bud Have fun on the grass here, man. Stay away from the trucks trusting you, man He's nine years old now. He turned nine a couple of weeks ago Let me tell you for the first half of his life. I would have never trust him with this He has earned my trust over the years He's a good boy now I mean if there's other people out here No one cares. Whatever What do you find over there diesel? I can point your flags in your ground, man Look at this Don't mess with them, bud Probably for their hydro or their electricity In Manitoba we call electricity hydro What do you think, man? I think I got it every square inch of this place Don't pay on it, man That's what the trees are for All right, but we have a little bit of ways to go yet. You got to come, man. You got to come along, man We got to get all the way to Minneapolis area yet Come on. We've got a few more hours to go Come on, bud. Come on, man. Get in the truck. Good boy Ready to go? I want to go to the Petro Stopping Center in Clearwater, Minnesota Hoping to find a spot by the time I get there. It's usually pretty packed, but we'll see what happens Beautiful truck here on the right. Wow Nice Oh, wow, the Kenworth has a massive custom sleeper Yes, real much those custom sleepers cost. Now you got to be a single single person to have one of those, right? Maybe not. I don't know. As a married person I know that I have different things that I got to spend my money on other than a big giant custom sleeper All right, everybody's different There's seven billion of us on this earth. I mean, that's that's a lot of different people To each their own, man You do what you want to do. I'll do what I want to do How about that? Just stay out of each other's way and we'll both be happy How do I get out of here again? I always forget how to get out of this petro pad. It's okay this way It's like a zigzag pattern to get out of here I think I went exit that way. Ah, they painted it on these yellow barriers now. You see exit left They didn't used to have that there. I always used to get lost in this parking lot Ah, that's because I'm not very smart. That's okay Exit this way Us and our clean semi clean semi See what I did there. Semi cleans it now. Well, I thought it was funny I'm the only one here that I got to impress Besides diesel, but he's impressed anyway I bring him his food Sock Sender, Minnesota. This is where I decided I'm gonna park. It's got a massive parking lot over there Is either that or the speedway down the road. It's a little bit of a smaller lot though And uh, I'm pretty sure that the clear water petro is going to be just packed already. So I'm not even gonna bother trying I'll stop here. I'm half an hour from my delivery tomorrow morning. That's no problem. We'll just start from here and Deliver in the morning Continue on this road for 31 kilometers. Oh, how about no How about we stop here from tonight? I like that idea much better In 300 meters make a u-turn if possible See if there's room for us back here somewhere And that's a wrap good sir sir weaselot sir weasel Lord of all weasels And woosels That bed is so inviting right now. I'm not that that tired. I mean we didn't go that far I'm not far enough What 600 kilometers today So it's six hours of driving. I'm not sure how many miles that would be six times 360 360 just under 400 miles We got another half hour to go tomorrow. We're gonna deliver this lumber inside my trailer and uh Figure out what the load gods have in store for me after that It's been nice hanging out with you today.
