3. I don't even know how to operate a car with a manual transmission, so I would have been worse than Grandpa Pete!

But I love the old cars, wish more of them were saved. The Dad of one of my co-workers who lived near me restored a Model A and I loved seeing that classic car on the road! And not far up north they have an annual classic car gathering and I always notice when they're in town.

When I was really little, I used to ride a lot with my Dad and he'd point out the different car models we passed, told me what the traffic signs said and explained the meaning of the different lines in the road, no doubt to keep me entertained, but it did give me an advantage when I started to drive...

Thanks for the great photo of the Obamas, yikes we miss them!
