Georgia may still be crying from the SEC Championship.  Geaux Tigers!!!

I got the good news waiting in line for lunch at Chick-fil-a.  That was the best tasting chicken sandwich I ever had. That night, my family and I went ate at a seafood restaurant and I had a beer with some oysters.

That's a great feeling when you finally see that green "Pass".  I passed on my 2nd attempt last April taking Transportation, but it took me 4 attempts to pass the FE.

I've always lived in southern Louisiana.  It's hot and humid, but we're used to it.  I hope to have our house built by the end of the year.

That's actually my neighbor's new house. We are in the process of building our on our land. 

Parents bought a new tractor and I got this old diesel from them with less than 1000 hours on it.

I passed Civil: Transportation in Louisiana.  My second attempt. Failed Oct. 2015 with a 40/80.  I borrowed a co-worker's Testmaster's notes and studied at home when I could.  It was difficult to find time to study due to 3 kids at home and a wife that works every weekend.  I thought the AM was...

Louisiana is out

I'm in the same boat as you. This is my second attempt with 3 kids at home ( 11, 8, and 4) hopefully we have better results than our first time. Good luck. 

I took it in Louisiana and the proctor let us keep our pencil and gave me two that were left by other people.
