I both miss driving and know that I need to retrain myself driving. I drove some last month -- a company car for a work errand (as in, Portland to Auburn, Wash., 150 miles one way), and a MUCH SHORTER trip into Newberg when I was staying with my folks at Thanksgiving -- and a little earlier this month, when I gassed up a company car. But the longest road trip I did this year was to Eugene back in February, and the longest trip after that was to go to Tigard for the Star Trek preview screening. Otherwise, very little driving. This year I've likely driven the least of any year I've been a driver. If this works, I can do longer trips again. I've missed doing that.
