Orientation

Today was my first day of hospital orientation.

I didn't find sustained shade today... it was an interesting ride home in 113 degree heat!  I would stop at a light, put my feet down to stabilize the bike, and stand up!  I'm sure people in the cars around me figured it out!

I am nearing a service point on the bike, luckily I have a service agreement with HD and there is a dealership here in Yuma.  That means the service will be done, no cost to me for labor or parts, just the environmental fees charged for oil/fluid disposal (about $7.00).  I have noticed a slight difference in how it runs after my ride here.  Just seems different, so I may take it in early.  Everyone were I am staying at knows who I am... "Is that your bike?"  "That's a nice ride."  "I saw your bike, I used to have..."  The fellowship and family seems to be eternal!

Tomorrow is the computer/IT training.  It will again be an all day event... little or no shade.  If you want to make money in Yuma in the summer, figure out and develop a low cost covered parking solution!  Also, tomorrow is when I get my unit orientation and first months schedule.

There is a lot of history here in Yuma.  I have already scoped out 5 things I want to experience/visit/learn more about!  And I have made a number of friends already, most are locals and I am getting the inside scoop on where to go, things to do, places to visit/see/eat at...  There will be more pics posted when I do these things!  I promise!
