Driving... O.O

Dad took me driving today. We (Dad, Will, Jaime, and Me) went down to my old elementary school (Highland Springs Elementary), so I could practice.


Dad even let me drive part of the way home. I kind of turned too far when turning onto Washington and crossed the double line....which then made me turn way too far the other way and roll over a pile of snow.


But overall, I think I did pretty well for my second time. Didn't run into anything at least...


Dad says I drive too fast on the turns. I also tend to forget to look in the mirrors... And how can I pay attention to the speed and the road and the mirrors and Dad's instructions all at the SAME time??!!!

Driving

Hey guys! Guess what? A few days ago Dad took me down to my old elementary school (Highland Springs Elementary School) to try some driving. It was awesome! I got to drive the Cavalier around the school parking lot.

Had to get used to the turning, but it wasn't too difficult. Drove about 10 mph most times. Started going up to 20 for a short while.

Once when I turned, I turned to sharply and ran the back wheels up the curb. =/

Dad told me to try to park at one point, so I attempted to turn into the parking space, however, I ended up ON the line instead of BETWEEN the 2 lines. Woops!

So, yeah, that was my first driving experience....well...except for the little go-carts I've ridden in when I was younger, but those don't count!

Family Reunion

We're going to go to a family reunion in New Jersey tomorrow... We're going to have a picnic in the park, and HOPEFULLY it won't rain. It's not supposed to, but you never know.

There's only going to be close relatives: grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. So that's good.

Our neighbor is going to look after Annie while we're gone. It's only going to be tomorrow until night, then we're heading home.

I'll write more on it later...
