mg gamboolgal is afraid to drive. I do all the driving and that's OK.
She will not drive anywhere unless it is absolutely necessary.
My Grandmother lived on the Farm all her life and never learned to drive. ms gamboolgal would be happy being like that... but that's about as far as being a farm girl would go with her
As traffic increases it means for more congestion and unfortunately, whatever the Posted Speed Limit is - folks seem to go over it by 5 to 10 mph no matter what.
In town, Stop Sign and Red Light Running are bad, at least down here in Houston.
We bought Front and Rear Video Cameras so at least we can have the Option of having Video to show Insurance and Law the video in the case of a accident.
We enjoy going on extended Road Trips. Lots of time, probably most of the time, we'll take the backroads thru small town America and look over the country.
We can make spontaneous stops in a interesting location and just adjust the itinerary and hotels accordingly.
We're planning and looking forward to a couple of Tournament Poker Road Trips including the Southern Poker Holiday Bash up in Bossier City, LA and just after New Year's the Million Dollar Heater in Biloxi. Many dozens of Raw Oysters will be had with all the fixings chased by cold beers
