My Cousin's Prius

My cousin came to visit at our new house yesterday.  She showed up with her husband, her mother (my aunt), her father, and her 6-year-old son.  In her Toyota Prius.  That must have been a fun half-hour ride.  Her husband is about 6' 2", 200#.

Our driveway is steep, and a bit tight at the top, with no room to turn around.  My friends have gotten used to backing down in the dark.  After a few beers, you hardly notice that you're driving down through the woods.  But cousin Lizzie was sober, and concerned that her little car wouldn't stop well at the bottom with a full load on board.  So I offered to drive it down for her, sans passengers, who could walk down the 50 yards.  She could easily have handled it herself, but was gracious enough to let me pretend that I was helping.  What's my point here?  I drove her Prius about 50 yards.  Backwards.

They still suck.
