Back from Bootcamp

After 12 intense days of orientation and additional training, I arrived home at 8:30am Saturday morning.  We drove 1,000 miles in 18 hours to get back here.  They (TMC) place three to a rental  car.  Our first stop was Mississippi to drop the first one off.  Then on to Anniston, AL.  I was the last stop in Douglasville, GA and was responsible for the car and handling the gas money to get home.  I'm now about to leave for my first week of OTR with my next trainer, tonight at midnight.  We are heading to Tampa and then, who knows where.  I wanted to update this before leaving.  Don't have much time these days and can't update this on the road right now.  I'm including a photo of my first day in Iowa 14 days ago.  It was taken right before the weather turned rough and the average high was in the 10s.  Did I mention it snowed almost everyday?
Till next time,

Off to Boot Camp

Well, the time has finally arrived for me to leave for what I've dubbed "Boot Camp".  I'll be gone for two weeks for orientation and then 5 weeks for "on the road" training.  I don't know yet if I'll have any time off between the orientation and the road training.  I'm hoping I'll get at least a day between the two.  Since I won't have my computer with me, I'm not sure I'll get to post any new blogs so this may be the last blog for a while. 
My new employer (TMC) has been good about letting me know what to expect in orientation.  I'm still a little nervous about making changes in my life, but I'm also excited to start something new and turn the page on this chapter of my life.
I'll update you if I can.
Until then,
Dano
