I think it would be a great way to get around. Less money at the gas pump and though it would not give you exercise, it would get you to places in non-sweaty condition. Of course there is the helmet head issue. =;]<br /><br />billy pilgrim- Oh no! Poor Fast Food Princess. I taught my daughter to drive when she was 14 and she took to it like a duck to water. However, my second son decided that he would rather not learn how to drive after a few driving lessons from me. This last son is a bit anxious, but I think he's doing very well for the most part.<br /><br />laura b.- Originally I learned with a stick. I've always had one. I think this clown car will be my last stick shift. The clutch kills my left leg. =:/ I'm dreaming of an automatic these days.<br /><br />Yes! They do indeed sell their owl pellets to schools and various research institutions. Your children may have taken apart one of their pellets! How cool is that?<br /><br />NoRegrets- Oh my... does that ever remind me of my first day of driving by myself. We had very few hills in Fresno. I was not trained how to deal with them. I drove up the side of a steep overpass... and found a signal at the top. I could not get my car to go without dying on the darned thing. Two nice college aged boys got out of their pick-up truck and held my little Sprite in place so that I could pull away and not back into anyone. I never went that way again and it was years before I braved any other steep inclines. Good call, NoRegrets! I will do that.silly rabbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01313221194740196751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9192937652020425888.post-21928546945754206972012-03-28T11:57:59.457-07:002012-03-28T11:57:59.457-07:00What a cool visit :) And good for you for taking t...What a cool visit :) And good for you for taking the time to teach Squeaky to drive stick...I still cannot and it is kind of embarrassing in a way. I bet, too, that he will be ready to get his license by the time his permit expires.<br /><br />Just out of curiosity, my kids have all disected owl pellets...do they sell them to schools...or companies that sell them to schools?laura b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15086009761943858915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9192937652020425888.post-47575750569377700852012-03-28T05:16:10.072-07:002012-03-28T05:16:10.072-07:00I don't think I could handle BHM showing me ho...I don't think I could handle BHM showing me how to drive....
