Mom would let us drive around Fackler, with her in the car, when we would visit my grandma- started that around 8-10. Starting about age 6 or 7 I remember sitting in her lap steering.

When we moved to Dutton, Dad would let us drive his little POS work car to the store to get him Copenhagen- we started that around 13 or so. Store never even questioned us or second guessed it. Either they knew the deal or knew a couple of 13 year olds driving around alone were crazy enough to handle a can of Copenhagen laugh

The fool tells me his reasons; the wise man persuades me with my own.
