I still find people fascinating. <br />My husband is a bit of a impatient driver; which sometimes drives me nuts.<br />I do like to take time to look and see what is going on around me. <br />This post brought back so memories with my family. My Dad smoked too so I can relate to that one. <br />Thanks for this one; and blessings for you dear friend for the memories.

I did a bit down South but we were in a very rural area. I am just not comfortable with driving on the opposite side of the road, although when push comes to shove I can do it if I have to! The roads here are so very busy and they all drive fast and there are far too many cars and the roads too narrow and winding! xx<br /><br />Pam, I am like you. I love life in the slow lane too! xxMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-60990150303275777272014-08-17T15:05:45.007+01:002014-08-17T15:05:45.007+01:00We used to take those Sunday drives when I was you...We used to take those Sunday drives when I was young. I still love to take drives out into the country side and take the back roads where there isn't much traffic so I can enjoy the view. I love life in the slow lane.

I have done my Sunday drive to Beaudesert so Pip can rehearse and will spent he next four to five hours stuck in Macca's with my computer and research papers. Small computer breaks are my reward.<br /><br />We did Sunday drives too. Generally we were told we were going from there to back again. There were only two of us so unless we had company it wasn't greatly uncomfortable except in Summer. No air con and 100 plus in the shade. Sometimes it was fun but it wasn't where I wanted to be. Four hour car trips happened every month or so as we went to the beach house that belonged to my aunt. As a teen that was a but much as there was so little there. I can see why the folks loved it but it testing to say the least.<br /><br />I try to not rush. Today I am guilty of being the slow one. I am always waiting for someone to get to the car in a timely fashion and I have asked over and over that if I was given just another five or ten minutes I would be a far less stressed driver.<br /><br />Anyway back to the research papers.
