    Gears, heh, yeah that's kind of how I feel about it. It gets into your blood. I worked in that Fortune 500 world for 25 years, and it never quite sat right with me. Ya put a monkey in a suit, and he's still a monkey!
     
    Gears Thanks this.

    Well, I got signed up...but haven't had to plunk down my $2500 tution yet - the final number may be less, as I think the state pays a portion, but I have to wait for my paperwork to finish floating around.

    Now I have until January 17th to decide whether I'm really ready to turn my life upside down. :biggrin_25521:
     
    Gears Thanks this.

    I downloaded and printed my Colorado CDL Driver's Manual...all 133 pages of it. I guess that's our main course material. Now I have reading material for the holiday season...Oh Joy!

    Good luck with it strat! I gotta kinda laugh about us mid-fities guys going off on this kind of crazy adventure! I don't know how many more I'll be up for, but from what I'm reading and learning, this'll be a doozie!
