Ernest and Daisy left their cabin in South Surrey, BC at 4PM, with their self-driving long-haul truck, and drove South crossing the border in 25 minutes. At 7PM they were at AmerStuff warehouse in Seattle, where a sealed 53 foot standard container from Costco was loaded on the trailer. The container was to be delivered to the AmerStuff warehouse in San Fernando, near Los Angeles.

At 7:30PM they already were on the I-5 going south, the truck on auto-pilot. While driving in Washington State or in California, at least one driver needed to be in the cabin, but in Oregon, they both could sleep while still driving.

During the three hours that it took the truck to reach Portland, Oregon, they worked on the Truckoin blockchain, that they both created in 2018, on top of EOS. After four years, Truckoin had become the main payment platform for independent truckers as themselves.

After refueling in natural gas in Portland, they were back on the I-5
and they both went to bed.

Shortly before entering California, Ernest was awaken automatically. He sat into the cabin. Checking his messages, he discover a very worrying communication from his friend and colleague Tony.
