I probably over estimated. However, she'll be riding to work with me (as a
dual enrolled student) in August. Then she'll have to drive to her high
school (a 45 minute ride) every day. So it'll be close to an hour a day
every weekday for close to 4 months. Computing it in my head, I guess
that's close to about 100 hours, not 500 as I originally guessed.
