Vero Chronicles

I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner! Lol

JUST on the trip here....


MUSIC TO A HOMESCHOOLING MOM'S EARS: While making fun of Jane from the MOVIE Pride and Prejudice (hear, "Yes! a thousand times, yes!")
Sloan says, "But Mom, Jane Austin was a genius, and movie makers are not."

Misplaced Credit: It's NOT a good thing when your child says. "Wow Mom, you're a GREAT driver! You can hand out four burgers, fries and drinks while driving 80 miles per hour!: errrr, thanks honey.

Immeditate vaporizing of fellow driver: A lady pulled DIRECTLY out in front of me while I was going about 60 and I had to do the SUPER slam on my brakes while hitting the horn. While we all sat in stunned silence, thankful to be alive, she switches lanes and we pass her. I do NOT look but of COURSE Sloan does. This older lady with adult men in the car give us the bird which Sloan sees. I unroll my window and give her the shame on you sign. Tsk. Tsk.
Only in Vero would someone nearly kill you and then be mad at YOU instead of apologize.

By the way, I agree that Jane Austin was a genius and now I like Sloan even more knowing that she realizes that.

I think I've seen a few of those Vero Beach (bad and rude) drivers around these parts as well. Hey, you said it, not me! I'm glad you guys weren't hurt. How does the tsk, tsk sign go exactly?

I'm sorry to say that, it not only happens in Vero Beach. It's happened to me right here in our home town, in the neighboring towns around us and in my folks town too.

My Knight and I did not encounter "bad drivers" while we lived in Europe. During the time we lived there, we didn't even see one accident. Which is quite amazing considering there is no speed limit in the autobahn!
