It finally happened! I got a walk-in hair appt. and Jim was too sick to take me. I got the keys and was on my way.
Thank you, God:
10:00 so after rushhour on our road-I didn't meet anyone coming or going on the little, tiny, narrow, holey,curvey, mango strewn road from our house.
Only 1 car behind me honking to go faster!
People standing on the road to cut vines down were taking a snack break so I didn't have to swerve over in on-coming traffic!
I didn't make eye contact with a single man-ask Sheila!
Next time I plan on the following:
Not hitting the windshield wipers everytime I want to signal turns(wrong side)
Tooting horn lots more-every curve, pass, hello!, get out of my way!
No leaving fingerprints in the steering wheel from grip!
People of Grenada!! Watch out! I'm free! (Jim just rolled his eyes!)

Dave has told me many of horror stories about driving in Venezuela. I wonder if it's similar. He said the drivers are crazy, they don't slow down, they don't signal and if there is a half a car length... they will fit the car. Funny!
ReplyDeleteHope you haircut was worth the trauma of the drive there!
Way to go.... I knew you'd make it.

Hey! Jim & Marie!
ReplyDeleteWe've been wanting to get in touch and keep up with you guys, but today is the first time I've had a chance to set it up. We are so "not" savvy to this new computer blog thing, but we love your posts. Especially the driving. We've had a good laugh and now we're off to work on the well and sort cows. Wish Jim were closer, he could help. Considering his ability with geckos, I hope he gets better. All the others are likely to hear about you guys and move in, too. Have a great day! We love you. b&p
