    Well I'm headed back to the open road again after leaving last year.I'm headed to orientation in SLC on Aug 17th. I'll have a laptop with me so I'll keep updates on the Westside of the country since most of them seem to be back east. Anyone else heading to SLC?

    Several of my classmates at Swift Millington Academy had 20+ hour rides. I was only 6 hours away so my son drove me from the MS Coast to Millington. Just get there and do your best. We'll be looking for your posts! Oldnew...

    Good luck at orientation Nicnat. That 9 hour bus ride ain't nothing. Just look at it as practice, getting you ready for the big ride in the big truck.
