NASCAR has nothing on Her!

Somewhere between Butte and Missoula she took over the wheel.  Who knew that the little temptation along the Enchanted Highway in North Dakota as a 15 year old would tempt/motivate this young lady?

Have you ever sat in the passenger seat as your 15 year old learned to drive a car during driver's education? There is an uncontrollable urge to dive to the middle of the car when the mailboxes seem to be flying at your face and to shove your foot through the floorboard when the approaching cars seem to close for comfort.

If you can recall or imagine that sensation, consider it on steroids with your teenage daughter behind the wheel of a 36 foot RV.  In order to take the co-pilot seat in the RV all one has to do is breath deeply and repeat "serenity now, serenity now...."

Amazingly, Caitlin gave me nearly 2 hours of rest as she cruised that space of Montana.  She was remarkable and all of my doubts were unfounded.  But between you and me, riding co-pilot with your teenager in an RV could be a top 10 adventure/adrenaline rush of my entire life!
