Last weekend in SLC

We have had a couple of busy days since Wed. Thurs we were invited over to Franks (my lead tech) for lunch. He makes a great pizza and hot wings! (also brews his own beer). Afterwards, we went to the store and took a load and a bike to the house. Met one of the owners of a bike we used came by to get his bike and say goodbye. Yesterday we cleaned out most of the stuff, threw alot away in a construction dumpster behind us that Don who owns a HVAC business graciously offered to save us a trip or two to the dump.
This morning we went back to SAGE to practice some alley docking, and some real life type stuff. Russell, the director of the school came in on his day off to work with us a few hours off the record. Can't say enough good for those guys at the school.
I took a few pictures of Kim while she was playing around to share.
Some are of Kim backing up into a 12' box, down a delivery ramp to a shipping/receiving dock, and of Russell giving her some some pointers. The pictures of the truck are a Kenworth T-600. I will probably be in a T-600 while in training for the 3 weeks. There is also a T-2000 that CFI uses for some trainers and Teams. The cab is the full width of the sleeper where the T-600 is narrower in the cab.
Hope you enjoy the pictures. We are getting anxious to get on the road.
