It was an good day and a good drive. Especially, when we thought we didn't have to do it. The encouraging news dominated our emotions throughout the morning and early afternoon. It was terrific to know that we didn't need to get the D- Licence and that we were there because we wanted to finish what we started.
We went through the Pre-trip check with lots more confidence and less anxiety. So, that was a good thing. We wouldn't want to end up with a half million dollar paper weight.
Bettyann went first, her checks went well but her knees are still hurting through the brake procedure. Then Dale took her on a drive through Oshawa - do you know that if you're driving a truck that there is a part of Oshawa that is a free roller coaster ride? I mean, it's a good thing you have a seat belt because you will be bouncing for quite a distance. She handled it well.
Do you know that no matter how well you've memorized the check list you always forget something - I forgot 2 things both of which were important - luckily Dale was there to point them out. Getting much better though.
I also did the roller coaster route - thanks for the warning Bettyann. Glad you went first. And, we are both glad we didn't quit.
