I had the best day! Our Sunday Jeeping group declared it was Ladies Day so I drove our Jeep on the desert trails near Yuma AZ for the first time ever! ( Well I do drive to Fry's) I had coaching (mostly welcomed) from my navigator Terry all day. He said he was never scared. We drove out on very easy trails to Ferguson Lake and saw lots of wild donkeys. After lunch I learned about 4 high and 4 low gears as the hills and gullies and washes got a bit more tricky! I learned to avoid scratchy bushes on the right and left even if I have to go over a rock! We only lost one reindeer antler and only temporarily. I learned to keep the window up when going through scratchy bushes! I learned how to keep my distance from the rig in front unless I want to see how they took the line on a tough spot. I did some tippy trail parts. Boy am I exhausted tonight. I see 2 Jeeps in our future! NOT!
I'm here to tell you Barb Wiemart and Liza Down were among the fearless new 4 wheel drivers today! We did so well! No wonder the guys like this. But I have much to learn and much more confidence to gain. What a deal!
