 Good morning diesel Are you doing buddy? Hey, hey, stay over here bud. Come here. Come this way. Come on Nice day over here first very nice grass. They got here very nice. I have myself a little morning snack What's he here? So diesel is trained to do his number two do his business in the long grass Which is very handy It's much better than having poop all over The open space where people walk and play and stuff. So he takes care of it in the bush and then I don't have to take care of it His problem. Well Not my problem It's fertilizer from Mother Earth right diesel Absolutely So we didn't film yesterday. We had a day off at home It was very nice and then in the evening we left and we got here between Portage La Prairie and Brandon to the co-op What town is this in again? It's just like barely past Portage La Prairie headed west We still have about a 12-hour drive to get to Calgary or Okatox where we're delivering today I keep saying Calgary, but it's actually Okatox. It's south of Calgary. It's not in the city And then after we deliver in Calgary tomorrow I have to go up north to Edmonton pick up a load there and then book it back home so that my truck can get a safety and We're gonna go home for a while right diesel We're gonna be home for a lot longer than I expected at first But I'm welcoming it because it's summertime the weather is great. I got a lot of stuff to get done at home And it'll be nice to just Be home for a while. I mean even if the bank isn't very happy about it It is what it is. I'll be happy about it. So in the meantime diesel Needs to stretch his legs before we get going I got here to bow just before 2 a.m. last no 2 a.m. Yeah, yeah, there's around no it's around 1 a.m. I think that I got here last night central time I got a pretty good sleep. I think It is hot right now. Whoo Feels like I'm in Georgia, but really I'm in Manitoba in Canada This is our summer season And you got to enjoy every single day of it because it's so short It's only gonna be around for a couple of months and then Before you know it, you know We're not gonna speak of that So diesel you just gonna sniff around a little bit You almost done. I think we can get going sooner or what? The nice thing about being up here in Canada and up in the northern climates is that in this long grass here There's no poisonous snakes or anything going to jump out at diesel I can't let them just wander into the long grass like that further south because of I don't know What's in there snakes bugs critters that want to kill you up here? Like in Manitoba it gets so cold in the winter time that anything that would be poison enough poisonous enough to kill you It dies in winter time, so they don't survive up here So the worst thing that's in here is ticks and ticks seasons over that's more in the beginning of the year So right now pretty much it's mosquitoes. It's mosquito season here As you can tell there's one flying around my camera right now Now he's got his tick prevention medicine inside him So what that does is when a tick bites him it actually kills the tick and they just fall off But I always check them for ticks anyways. You got to be careful because of Lime disease that's passed through wood ticks and it's passed through mosquitoes as well It's not fun. It's not fun. I know some people who Who unfortunately have Lyme disease and it's it's not fun So he's got to check yourself make sure that you don't want the ticks to latch on and Possibly spread something to you But this time of year, I mean in springtime we had tons of ticks at home tons, but now I This month I've seen like one Anyways, should we get the truck in or what? 62 big ones if you're speaking American it's past moose dry stopped in there for a coffee a little bit of a break The weasel out groomed him because he's he's hairy. He's starting to shed a bit again So I'm gonna groom him what you see is what you get just about to the border with Alberta and Saskatchewan there Just sailing across the flatlands I'm gonna four and a half hours to go or so we're gonna go the whole way I've only got three and a half hours left on my clock, so we can't go all the way I'll probably go up to Brooks. I don't think I'll quite make it to Strathmore. I don't know Strathmore's on my road actually It might be I'll probably go to Brooks or something like that Brooks, Alberta Stop at the flying J there. We're just gonna stop for a quick eight hours and then Continue on because the sooner I get unloaded tomorrow the sooner I can go get reloaded the sooner I can make my way home Looking forward to spending some good time at home. I Told you already right? No, we got that pump. So we're gonna I'm gonna work with our pond a little bit this week And get that done Do the drywall inside our house To finish up that door installation finish that all off nicely Maybe we'll get started or maybe we'll continue on the master bedroom renovation a Little bit not too sure yet We'll see what happens. I Know on the weekend we're going to the beach so if I don't get to swim in our pond At least I get to go swim in the lake kind of itching to get in the water already I love I love swimming especially in the hot days Nothing beats just jumping in the lake Here we are coming up to Alberta Everything in Alberta is great. You know that everything life tying me down to Southern Manitoba I'd be an Albert. We were already in Mountain Times zone Karen. Come on place to be out here But we put our roots down in Southern Manitoba and Southern Manitoba is just as nice as Alberta I love Southern Manitoba. It's just All of Alberta is sort of like Southern Manitoba. It's all nice And they got everything here I mean they got the prairies here that were on here you go further west you get to the Rocky Mountains you can go skiing Snowboarding down the slopes of the mountains in Western Alberta. You can go up north to the forests You got the oil fields up there. You got more agriculture up there. It goes all the way up to the territories It's always something to do in Alberta. Oh good. They changed their flags It's about time both those flags are all tattered and faded last time I went past here Good I didn't get shut down earlier than I thought. I'm gonna stay here and medicine hat First thing in the morning I can get a good coffee. It'll be nice, wide and awake By the time I get to my delivery not just waking up I'm kind of tired today already so I'm gonna pull into the Flying J and find us a parking spot Looks like it's kind of full already. Yikes There's a lot of people here That is the weekend. That's why everybody is probably here waiting to deliver tomorrow morning I see that there's still plenty of parking. I usually don't have to worry about finding parking in western Canada It's only in the east Like the eastern US east of the Mississippi And eastern Canada like Toronto and east You gotta worry about not being able to find a parking spot after 6 p.m. there But out west here there's usually plenty of parking Doesn't look like it's any exception today so Lots of spots available back there It's usually not even this full. This is actually pretty full. People have parked along the driveway here already Thread the needle through the pumps here Go find us a spot Wanna hit anybody?
