driving along in my automobile

Update on New Year's Resolution #2 - Get Driving:
I have been out for a drive almost everyday and this week I have taken the boys out in the car TWICE without Fraser as a co-pilot/road-rules consultant. On one trip I struck busy lunchtime traffic and freaked out a bit, but I got us home safely...it just took a while for my hands to stop shaking.
I'm LOVING the feeling of taking off in the car.
My current driving fantasy, which I hope to be capable of before summer ends:
I'll take off in the car by myself, heading to the coast at dusk. I'll play the Throwing Muses 'The Real Ramona' album very loud - my favourite driving record. I'll get to the beach and run into the sea. I'll sit and watch a golden sunset with a rough wool blanket wrapped around me. Then I'll drive home in the dark...covered in sand and eating pineapple lumps the whole way.
I think I have an inner-hoon just bursting to get out.

I love today's collage.
Your driving fantasy sounds very fun, especially the pineapple lumps bit. I hope you can do it this summer!

Iam with you...I may need a bag of lumps to myself though!! (Iam not sure if I can get them in Aust but I do love them)
I am sometimes a nervous driver in unfamiliar territory but always feel liberated when I manage it.
