I'm looking for a place to practice driving. Somewhere that doesn't have a lot of busy traffic (yeah, Elmwood on the strip isn't an option -- YET!), maybe some light traffic, open spaces and perhaps a parking lot. Anyone know of such a place?

You are right seeing is not doing. I don't do a lot of seeing cause I have no talent. If i did I wouold like art more because I would have a better undstanding of it. Glad you are having fun seeing and maybe even buying some art. Hopefully as you said you will be inspired and make some art yourself.

PermittedToday, i got up and thought to myself, "this is the day". So, i did the online quiz while eating some breakfast, got ready and caught the bus downtown.
(e:Uncutsaniflush) was calling me from work on his break when i was leaving and again when he got off work just after i got home.
Other than some confusion and a disagreement between staff members that involved me and what line i should be in, everything went quickly and smoothly.
I left home after 11am and got home around 2pm. Plus i stopped to have a small lunch and browse then purchase some veg from a table on Main street.
I passed the vision and written test. I now have a learner's permit. Soon, the streets will not be safe as i learn to drive...

Insomnia! Insomnia!Caffeine is the devil.
(E:Uncutsaniflush) and i went to his company picnic yesterday afternoon. All they had to drink was Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Mountain Dew, water and Labatt Blue (ewww).
It was hot, and i was thirsty. I had 3 caffeinated beverages. Waaaaaaay over my usual intake in of caffeine in a day.
So, at 3am when i still hadn't fallen asleep, i was quite frustrated. I couldn't keep myself still long enough to lay in bed, and not keep my long suffering husband from waking up.
I hope i have enough energy to accomplish the tasks i have set out for myself today...

Alas, I wish caffeine worked for me. It makes me fall asleep. I usually drink a cup of coffee to help me feel drowsy - it works most of the time.

Lee, ECC North is a good spot on the weekends, lot of space, parking space to practice with and the like
Excellent point, (e:Chico)!
I'm only half-joking when I suggest downtown Buffalo on any night except Thursday, Friday or Saturday.
I learned to drive in an industrial park, after hours. Is there anything like that around here? Lots of different parking lots connected by roads with stop signs etc... Or a big empty parking lot, at least at first.
Oh hey - that brings back memory of drivers ed - I think I drove on Ashland, Norwood, lots of stop signs, practice parallel parking.
