    I almost took Amtrak, its actually cheaper than the bus ticket they bought me. So they would of fully reimbursed me. I regret not doing it, I had the money, dont know why i didnt. But the greyhound trip is just motivation to not fail and get sent back home on a bus.

    AMTRAK sounds a hell of a lot bettrr then HassleHound. But you are right, that bus trip is motivation not to fail. One last decent ride wouldnt be too bad either. TangerineGt, how did the rest of your ride turn out and how is the first day in SLC ? Good luck to eveyone else going to SLC. Be safe, have fun.

    The first day was cake all we did was went to the Dmv and took permit test , I passed so now tomorrow we start backing , then test on wednesday for backing skills.
    Oh went to walmart to get some food to cause I spent way to much money on fast food in Atlanta.

    Yeah, easy day today. Passed all mine & was actually one of the first to take it so got finished pretty early. Been sitting in hotel most of the day. Ready to get in the truck tomorrow & start backing. I guess tomorrow is when we'll start losing people from the class, either from not passing the written or can't grasp the skills. Congrats to you Tangerine, and everyone else who passed, guess I'll see ya out there tomorrow!

    See you guys out there tomorrow. I'm guessing we've crossed paths but haven't figured out who you are yet.

    Speaking of Atlanta, I just pulled in here. Its odd that im down here since I usually drive Midwest states. But im here. It was recomended to me to try the place next to the store across the street, so I guess thats what im having for lunch tomorrow.
