    You'll be fine. Remember this, HAVE FUN! You can have a lot of fun in Little Rock, while learning new things every day. Stay safe my friend.

    Yes, always have fun. You'll learn more and have a memorable experience.

    Best advice I can give you is - If your early, your on time. If your on-time your late, and if your late, your out of luck

    That was the message to those who "tested" the instructor's patience at the first break.

    The suggestion was that next time it might make better sense to get coffee in a to-go cup if you were going to be late.

    Ah the joys of Day 2.

    • Whiz quiz.
    • Hair raising follies (>100 strands ~1"/ea.)
    • Turn your head and cough.
    • Poor man's Stairmaster for 3-min.
    • Move the bags from Bucket A to Bucket B
    • Move the same bags from Bucket B to Bucket A
    • Lift this box.
    • Lift that box
    • Lift this other box. Again. Again. Again.
    • Drag this bag across the floor.
    • Drag same bag back to where it came from.
    • Lift another box.
    • Climb up Mt. Maverick and back down again.
    • Walk the plank out and back.
    • Climb up the back of the trailer. Now come back down.

    Final task was the motivational exercise: Climb into a new 14K tractor. (No, we're not going to hold it for you!) Climb back down.

    Look in the envelope for the color of the card...

    GREEN

    ...to be continued
