There's a lot in here A little bit crazy. So Oma is German for grandma and Opa is German for grandpa. Yeah So that's the way we tell the difference between the different sides of the family when I was growing up my mom's mom and dad was Grandma and grandpa to me and my dad's mom and dad was Oma and Opa That way you always know who you're talking about you don't just say grandma and your which grandma This will be Oma and Opa That's the way we grew up as well too that is easier to tell apart though I never did get to know my grandparents. I thought at all my grandfathers They died way before I even came around. Yeah, I got to know my grandfather's not my grandmother's this much Especially my mom's mom. I never got to know because she died when we left I remember I remember seeing her in Mexico they put them on sand and keep it wet That's where they keep the bodies and that's how I remember seeing her last They didn't have air conditioned buildings to keep them in the morgue like that's what it is Oh, wow Things have changed a lot since then Yeah, yeah, exactly and these are Baby hangers baby hangers. We already have a few packs of those. They're amazing. Yes, we learned. Well Brit learned then learned me Taught me that they're yeah, baby hangers. You would think that just use a regular hanger. No, nae nae Exactly What is this pacifier pod if it's not in the baby's mouth you put it in there Keep it from falling on the ground. I'm getting all full of dog hair. Yeah All right A lot of our stuff is going to be based on dogs again. You know baby stuff Little minis something don't scratch themselves Yeah, baby baby nails are lethal Yes, you guys look crazy. They've lost a Terry cotton socks First baby in almost 13 years. I'm not surprised. I went a little crazy. I love dad We've told the blog before but we'll tell you again that there hasn't been a grandchild on either side of the family Almost 13 years Yep Been a little while That's butts. Baby butts. Baby butts something to do with something for the butt. That's what my cousin uses on her kids And it's amazing for our rash. It's the baby's rash. Yeah, should I try it out see if it works? Do you got a rash on your butt? I'm not rubbing it on your butt Hahaha That's a cover for either a stroller, mosquito net, bass net, car seat Yes, so the baby doesn't get eaten alive Premium baby shampoo and wash. Hello bello We were actually looking at these. Yes. That's also a name brand that my cousin uses and highly recommends Hello bello again premium baby lotion We were looking at that. Those are the big ones. I expected the little ones like they have in store Nice, yeah, we're gonna we haven't even checked. I have one set. We haven't even checked to see if it fits yet. So that's good Oh, this is the baby carrier. You were just talking about that the other day. Yes I'm going to be able to get stuff done because of that thing. Yeah, there are many different ways of wearing it See and you can take the baby with you everywhere Eight to 32 pounds. We were just talking about this yesterday when we were looking at them And I'm pretty sure they don't recommend using it until the baby's at least like two weeks or more Yeah All this baby stuff is exciting It is right like it's all so new and a hello, baby baby monitor That was one of the top rated ones in canada this year. So I'm guessing it has audio Yeah, it has audio. Yeah. In fact, it has two-way audio two-way audio. We'll leave it in here so I don't get Damaged if you like oh, you can look at it. It's got a room temperature display two-way communication infrared night vision lullabies Vox mode alarm function Up to a thousand foot range 300 meters. It's got a long cord on it. Yeah Thanks. Oh my no, thank you Baby appreciates you one. They're rolling around right now as we speak in there One day down the road and probably when they understand and tend to Ten years or so they'll watch this video All this stuff was from your alma nova. You are spoiled already The project continues It may not look like we're making much progress, but Believe me we are I've got one load of stuff. I'm taking to the shop Storage today coming back here. I'm grabbing this wardrobe We've emptied out this closet I'm gonna put our blankets up there that are in that wardrobe. So that's going to the shop to get painted and That tall dresser right there is also going to the shop for storage Don't need it in here. That's where the bassinet is gonna go Once baby comes there's a bassinet there and all of this Will be cleared out the most part and then we're gonna start with painting the ceiling and work our way down Should be fun Brits books are gonna be going in here now She's uh A dedicated reader a little bit of a bookmark A little bit. I get sick of tv. I'm not working right now. So Yeah There's only so much You can do with tv and phones. She reads a book a day pretty much No, I don't very close. Now we were at six last month. That's like a book every week Well every five days It's more than that So we have uh this dresser taken out of here now And that's where the bassinet will be Until baby is old enough to be in the crib in the other room Just got to organize all this stuff now got that closet Cleared out on the bottom Up on top is where the blankets will go Frank you have not been helping Diesel have you been that was the second time you've almost made me fall You guys why do you have to lay right in the high traffic areas? You could you could lay right back there and you'd never be a problem Diesel back up back up back up back up Back up in there. You see Somewhere where we're not walking regularly There you go. You see no one's gonna trip on you. No one's gonna step on your paws there Good boy. I just hitting very fun though people don't notice me here In your shadows a shadow we do Forgot each other we do Got the pickup in the shop and this is what we have Accumulated in here so far making room for baby Eventually, like I said, we'll have a bigger house and we'll have much more storage at the house, but for now This is the shop. It's the garage and it's also the storage Multi-use purpose and we have the storage anyway, so why not right? We're also going to leave it outside in that shed in our backyard It's not insulated. It'll freeze and all this stuff. We really don't want to freeze in the wintertime so Huh, it works, right? It works. That's why we have the shop So I'm just grabbing the rest of my stuff right here Taking it to old blue outside who's already warmed up hooked up ready to go Let's get going In Ontario The weekend always goes so quickly so fast He's so nice to have a long weekend every weekend, right? Here's what it is On my driver's side mirror here. You see that brown spot in the bottom left corner. It's bothering me It's actually because the mirror is cracked I think when I was adjusting it once maybe I didn't do it carefully enough Or these mirrors are just a little weak because there's a little bit of a crack up on the top of the mirror as well And there's a crack at the bottom of that mirror over there and at the top. I'm just seeing It's hard to have nice things because you pay a good penny for these good New mirrors, right and they end up just cracking all the time I've never had mirrors crack on me before and then I guess the water gets in there and it rusts behind the mirror and then it turns it brown It's too bad I guess I'll have to go with a different brand next time. I'm not very impressed with that But they're still functional. They still work. We'll worry about that this summer Got a few other things on our plate right now I think this is that blast zone. I'm sure what's going on here Saw some police walking around in the traffic here. They went off to the left This guy broken down here on the left the cops would be here Oh, they're talking that guy in that tesla in the tesla. She must have been speeding Oh, there's another OPP right here. We're just watching this stretch of highway making sure people don't speed through here Because sometimes people will go past that sign holder right Which says slow and then they'll just floor it and book it through the construction zone I've seen that happen before but they're trying to prevent giving out tickets for people speeding through here progress though, that's for sure It widened this section here. It's coming through here. Uh, probably I'm guessing in the next year or two At the rate they're going they're making good progress I think this machine off to the right, which looks like a big oil rig or mini oil rig I think that's what drills the dynamite or drills the holes for the dynamite stick the dynamite down there That is so neat. But the I bet no one's late for work on this job Everyone's all excited. It's monday. We're gonna blow stuff up again. I thought for sure cops sitting here too I think that looks like a cop maybe not being good boys and girls prairies, that's for sure That's no excuse though. I still want a four lane with our freight behind us. We're on the way I just confirmed that My shipment is cleared to cross the border It's customs certified I'm gonna cross from fort francis ontario into international falls minnesota I'm gonna have to get into that lane though. Kind of a night time drive today Or tonight got about another three hours to go a little more than that probably with the speed limit It's probably three and a half hours or so So probably get me there around 12 30 at night. That's what I'm thinking between 12 30 and 1 a.m I really like driving at night. I've always been a night owl. It's just everything's quieter. There's less people on the road Just the only thing is in wintertime you do have to be careful with that because with there being less people out and about That also means that there's less mechanics out and about if something goes wrong and less service trucks And you have to pay a hefty fee if you want a service call during the night. So if you break down Usually a lot more expensive to get someone out there to fix you Well, here's a question I have for you locals Karen will stop talking over me So here we got a red light going this way right but there's a sign right here that says right turn permitted on red signal But you can't turn red. Uh, you can't turn right on red because there's no right turn You had to go straight into the water Is this considered a a right turn because it kind of angles to the right, but it's just straight this to me is straight That's left It says right turn permitted on red signal I'm not just going to blow through a red, but I'm assuming they mean that you're allowed to That's weird That's weird. Now. I just wait for a green light every time. Uh I don't know Some of you locals are on fort francis. Can you tell me what this sign? means There is no right turn Is that just like a like a like a practical joke by the town council? Tell them that they can turn right on red, but don't give them a right turn to make Attention travelers at the next intersection yield to transport trucks Accessing the u.s. Border truck lane. That's right. Everybody you yield to us We don't yield to you We are very important very important. We are carrying the economy Stay clear stand back So once we make this corner, we are committed. We are crossing into the u.s. Can't back up from here. I mean technically we could Easy all these cameras all over the place. They'd probably come ask some questions right away. What are you doing? Or maybe they wouldn't who knows well, everyone Karen is still talking over me. It's getting kind of annoying Oh, we used to have to go down this bridge now. They're saying all vehicles go this way. Okay All right, then I'll go this way then I will talk to you when we're on the other side and just like that poof We're ding dong We're in america our friendly neighbors It's always nice coming for a visit city of international falls A ghost town man. I guess everyone's at home Nobody out usually there's at least somebody parked on the street here, right? The fuel price here for gasoline they're charging three 29 a liter Or if you want to believe the sign it's three 28 and nine tenths of a cent So what you got to do is you got to take an american penny and you got to cut one tenth off of it For each gallon you buy I don't know why they do that like you're not fooling anybody They do the same thing in canada. Oh the gas price is $1.989 per liter What do you mean 0.9 of a cent? We don't even have cents anymore Like we don't we literally don't have pennies anymore because it costs more to produce them than they were worth in canada We only have nickels. That's our lowest currency. What do you mean 0.9 of a cent? It's not a dollar ninety eight nine. It's a dollar ninety nine. Don't lie to me You're not fooling anybody Like do people really like pull up for the gas station like oh good. It's a dollar 98 not a dollar 90 because then it was a dollar 99 I would not have stopped in for gas here. Nope. I would have gone across the street Maybe I have a little too much faith in humanity There are people probably out there that that are like that They're probably they probably exist And that's why they put the nine tenth of a cent or 0.9 because it really does fool people Who am I kidding? Of course it works. That's why they do it Dear river minnesota, this is where we're going to park for the night tired That's me First day back on the road is always the toughest Get back into the swing of things Even though I just had a couple of days off just getting back into it is Ah Bittersweet it's nice to get the roll the wheels rolling again smell the diesel fuel You know get old blue running But also it's the first day after you know sleeping in my own bed For a couple of nights and I don't know I also got a little bit of a later start today. We didn't start first thing in the morning We had to go and sign some paperwork and stuff first thing this morning And then I went to the old blue and got the truck ready after that So I didn't get going first thing in the morning. So that's probably why I feel a little more tired We had to get up kind of early to get to our appointment that we had And Everything is all good. We're still on schedule I got my load picked up got it tarped We made it here safely the weather is actually really nice. It's about zero Celsius outside tonight But 32 fahrenheit that is so much better than minus 32 now It's just 32 fahrenheit or zero Celsius so much better than minus 32 or minus 28 fahrenheit Oh I'm gonna shut old blue down for the night.
