With Scott doing all the driving on this road trip I can get a little rusty at it.
I thought maybe I should take a driving lesson.
In case you too need a brush up, here is what I learned:
First, pick a knowledgeable instructor who knows and loves the vehicle. In my case, Sara from Exquinox farm otherwise known as
"Punkin Patch Sara".

You must have confidence in your teacher's control so observe them in action first.

Ride along with your instructor and don't just try to do it all by yourself the first time. Make sure you understand how it all works.

Now it is time for you to go solo.

Be observant of obstacles in the road.

Don't be distracted by your friends and never pick up hitch hikers.

Have your instructor show you how to watch for traffic and cross safely.

Respect your transportation and keep it clean and well cared for.

And always make sure you use the finest fuel.

It is neat to see this after seeing that blog! Love the green grass too, and looks like the rains have subsided.
cute corgi!
The picture of Graham Lamb trying to hitch a ride is hilarious! I'm so glad you came out :-).
I didn't know Weasley was such a good trainer! What a hoot! I am sure you learned a lot and had fun as well.
