Erika decided that she was going to go to Salem to spend some time with her friend, Katie, that moved to Salem last year. She has been to Katie's house before, but has never drove herself there. She did the adult thing and made all the arrangements, and then printed out a map on mapquest to make sure that she didn't get lost and with the exact streets and the exact way to go. She called and let us know that she made it safely. She realized after she got to Katie's house, that she was out of gas. So she had to gas up her car all by herself. She did call a couple of times to verify that she had to go inside to pay for the gas first, because she doesn't have a Visa Debit card yet, so only had cash with her. This was a great experience for her, for two reasons, to be able to drive herself where so wanted to go without a GPS or another person and to put gas in her car without mom paying for it and showing her how to do it. She has two adult things under her belf now, only 307 more. Figure that out Erika!!
