Hush! Hush! But do look at Chelsea!

Unbeknowst to everyone (we were all watching the Iron Man Competition), Liz and Chelsea slipped away to take a look at Liz's new VW convertable; and when we looked up, Chelsea was easing the beautiful red machine ever so nicely around the bank's parking lot. Liz was giving her niece her first driving lesson. There were no other cars in the lot; it was as safe as safe can be. By all accounts, Chelsea did exceptionally well, not a jerk when on the gas pedal, not a head-bob when putting on the brakes; Chelsea drove slowly with great precision; the ride went as smooth as silk. It didn't last long, but it was such a pleasure to see Chelsea learning to be responsible at the wheel.
