    If all goes as planned, I should be at Missoula for orientation on 11/4. The only thing that might slow me down is getting to DMV for my test.

    I am really looking forward to actually starting my new career!

    Kelby, Bill and Randy are a hoot. You'll have a fabulous time. Don't be afraid of the shame-wagen, it'll get you there.

    Thanks! I have heard nothing but good things about the training and trainers in MT.

    Next weekend I am going shopping for warmer clothes. It's been many years since I spent any real time in a cold environment. Good thing my wife grew up in Northern Canada, she can help me be ready!

    Get carhardt overalls and jacket. They get better with age and you will need them when chaining up.
