Garrett began learning how to drive a stick shift tonight. Started in the field behind our barn with a parts truck. Graduated to the Jeep. Drove to church and cemetery for more practice. Shifting up to second gear and back down to first. Starting and stopping. Repeat. Then we drove to my Mom's. Other than the struggles of trying to start in third gear a couple times, he did pretty good. We survived. Curves, no power steering, no power brakes, and too much speed about made me crap myself once. . . .but we didn't die. Pretty good first go round.
