a spin around the block

the mr. and j. were away at science camp this week, so joe and i took advantage and had a little driving lesson. it was something to be on the passenger side! he did great- mostly coasted down the street- 3 left turns and one right and back in the drive. what was funny- besides seeing him so nervous and concentrating so hard, was that someone else in the neighborhood was out doing the same thing at that moment and we kept passing them. the look on the two drivers' faces was equal parts "i can't believe i'm doing this" and "look at me"- much like when they were two and learning to climb, or some other dare devil type stunt!
