So I will try to be consistent with contributing. Now that the Holidays are over I hope to have a little more time. Sometimes I can't believe that is the car I actually learned to drive in. I remember mom and dad being adamant about learning on a stick shift, little did I know it was the hardest and craziest car to learn in. I remember the seat would not adjust so I basically had to stand up every time I changed gears, and I remember going into reverse was always a little tricky. Going back even further, I remember driving with whoever, and thinking the gear stick was this magical stick that had a funny drawing on it, then as we got older, we would try to mimick the patterns. I hope that car never dies, by the way, when it was in our driveway for a couple weeks this last October, someone put a sign on the window asking if we were willing to sell it. I think we have a real treasure, for more reasons than just the value of an old, cool, car.
