My grandmother and mother were in downtown Dallas one day and mother mentioned she wished she knew how to drive. Nanny pulled over and said come on, you can start to learn now. So my mother learned to drive in downtown Dallas, in the Fall of 1942. The town looks completely different now of course. I can remember how it was in the 1950's, when I was growing up.<br /><br />By the way, mother was a great driver and drove the rest of her life, with no mishaps. Nanny was a good teacher.:-)PAThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12891387278850772808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4337784527382402788.post-33539880779341607572010-07-27T16:28:52.307-04:002010-07-27T16:28:52.307-04:00Hi Girlfriend...
