Doggone, it's early, got up at three forty five cst.
Tomorrow's the big day.
Our schedule today is we fly out of Dallas-Ft Worth at seven thirty this morning to Detroit. We have an hour or so lay over in Detroit and then we catch a bush plane to Appleton. We get there about twelve thirty this afternoon.
They take us to the hotel and then to a light lunch. We get a tour of some kind and then later they take us to Lambeau Field and a tour of the Packer Hall of Fame. Then it's off to Farve's Steakhouse for supper.
Tomorrow morning at nine the challenge starts. It's over at three. The winners are announced at four.
Today I get to meet the other finalists, whatcha wanna bet I'm the oldest of the crew? We get to meet the marketing bunch at Miller first thing. Think about about that. If I think I'm nervous as a cat with too long a tail imagine how they must feel. They're dealing with welders after all. We know what kinds of sick puppies they are. Careers are on the line.
I'm nervous. When I'm nervous I talk/type. Bear with me. It's been tough so far. My trusty old digital camera for the truck hasn't worked in awhile. I thought it was the rechargeable battery. I spent three hours chasing down the battery. It wasn't the battery. I have a new digital camera for the trip and truck.
The printer, only six or so years old, puked last night when asked to print out the boarding passes etc. We now have a new printer.
I don't like flying. I've been in everything from a small Piper Cub to the big commercial jets. They all have the same flaw for me. Someone else is at the controls. If they have a problem then I have a problem. I hate that.
