South Hardin is ONLINE!  Your driving will be in-person, 6 hours.  Here's what I have learned.  1) even though the class can be done in 10 days (3 lessons per day), most people take 2 months.  2) DO NOT WAIT TO START/DO THE CLASSES.  People who don't finish in time must pay $50 for a 30 day extension.  3) NO, I don't get to keep the $50, it goes to the online company.
