    Steve,

    Just keep me informed on how everything is going. I will be coming there on August 13 to start my training. I had to pick between FFE and Stevens Transport, so I went with FFE due to good reviews on schooling.

    Thanks,
    Russell

    Consider taking a wide brim hat,

    may be rather warm out there.

    Day 2 is in the bag. Yesterday and today was lots of book work and pre-tests. Everyone here is top-notch, fairly mellow atmosphere. I'm going to the dorms tomorrow, got my key for my room today and got lucky and got a single room (its just luck of the draw).

    Keven will be your first instructor, for the book studies. His first instructions to you will be "follow instructions", and he means it. This morning we were supposed to have homework done and 10 out of our 24 people didn't have it done. He was not happy.

    So far, we had 38 scheduled, 27 showed up and 3 have gone home already (I don't know why, probably medical?)
    Tomorrow we go to DPS to take our permit tests. I already have a Class B, so I'm hoping that will cut down on the tests, but we'll see.
