saw this couple during one of my morning walks a few days ago. they were the only ones around unless of course there's been others that were devoured by birds or animals. i was thinking i'd use it for a composite but couldn't put anything together that looks reasonably decent so i'm posting this as it is.
i haven't driven for well over eight years now and i wonder if i can still drive properly. a driving instructor was idling in the driveway this morning and i asked him if i could have a couple of practice on the weekend. $50 for an hour. tomorrow, we'll hit the city streets then on sunday, the highway. i told him i am more of a highway driver as i drive quite fast. he asked me a couple of traffic questions and he was happy with my answers so he said a couple of hours practice and i should get back my driving mojo. let's see what happens. 😜
@grammyn - there really is no need for me to drive as i live in the city -- parking fees are ridiculously atrocious, streets are often congested especially downtown where i work, and lots of stupid and/or arrogant drivers. at the time i was being driven where i wanted to and i would only drive on my own whenever i went to chicago to visit my brother and his family. also i've seen the ex's difficulty money-wise in maintaining his vehicles and i didn't want to be saddled with that problem, as it was, i always ended up paying mostly for repairs and upkeep. so for me, driving is not a necessity as i've always lived in places where there is good public transport. whenever i wanted to drive on my own, i mostly rented and the trip/drive had to be longer than 2 hours.
I found something similar this morning.
We were talking about driving and the necessity of owning a vehicle recently. We felt that if you lived in the city you could get by without a vehicle whereas living in a rural area having your own transport becomes a must have.
I cannot imagine not driving for eight years! I know what it felt like to start back after only a year of not driving after I had my car wreck.
