Vroom Vroom

We have a driver -- Drew passed his drivers test!

Jim took a bullet for the family and took him to take the test last Friday while Grace and I were at the cabin. But Jim gave us a play by play via text.

Drew was up and ready at 7 am for an 8:30 am test!

They went and were told to pull the car around in line and wait in it. So Drew did that and Jim waited inside the DMV....that was the beginning of the trouble...

Apparently, Jim was suppose to wait in the car with Drew, but that is not what the lady inside told them. So Drew got in trouble by one of the tester guys and had to get Jim. And then Jim got chewed out by the guy. Not a good start for Drew (AKA Nervous Nelly).

So Jim gets in the car and sits with Drew to wait his turn. While waiting, the car in front of them dies! DEAD! And the people have to push it out of the way.

Next, they see a girl who just pulled out for her test immediately come back and she is crying!

Yikes....Nervous Nelly is sweating bullets!

Luckily, Drew doesn't get the mean, grumpy guy who chewed out Jim, he gets a nice woman. And out they go for the test.

It took about 10 minutes and he came back having only missed three and passing! (You can miss up to 15!?!?!) One of the things he missed is he didn't know where the defroster was!

And the best part of it....he took the test in the Mini - and it's a stick shift!
