Well Then...

So it's been two weeks (ish), so here is another blog post!

Last time, I mentioned a simulator evaluation (I think), which I did last Thursday. It was quite the adventure.

So without further ado...

Story Time!

The original plan was that I would fly down to Winnipeg for my eval on Wednesday, do a practice on Thursday, the eval on Friday, and fly home to Thompson on Saturday. It all started to fall apart on Wednesday when the weather was absolutely awful, and my flight was cancelled. Shoot. Fortunately I managed to book a ticket on the Greyhound that left Thompson at 2200, and so I arrived in Winnipeg at 0800 on Thursday morning, ready for my practice sim at noon. That's when I got an e-mail saying that I would be doing my eval Thursday after my practice. Yikes! So I went to the training department, and did my practice sim. It went smoothly, and during the de-brief, my instructor/examiner told me that he would count that practice as the real thing, and so I passed my eval without knowing I was actually doing it.

Plus that meant I had all of Friday to enjoy Winnipeg, which was unacceptable, and so the weather decided that it should rain hard all day.

Well, God is good, I passed and can (sorta) relax now.

Which brings us to today... It snowed quite a bit last night because I wanted to go fishing today. I honestly don't think I can get my car out of the parking lot... When I took these photos I was up to my knees in snow...
