A boring thursday.

Well it's a boring Thursday today. Just tied up some lose ends on vacation plans. All i need to dp now is rent a few cars and I'll be all done. MY final plans changed a Little bit. July18Th-24Th I'll be here for the first couples days to attend the NHRA races, Then on the morning of the 21st i fly out to Vegas to hang out with my good friend Carolyn. She hasn't been to Vegas in 20 years so this should be lots of fun. A good former co-worker of mine Jason will also be in Vegas that week. I plan on meeting up with him when Carolyn heads home that Tuesday night. I don't leave till Thursday.

Before i go on the picture today is of Mike Neff. He is a funny a driver for John force racing. I love this pic it looks like he's looking right at me. But what you don't see is all the press guys that are right behind me. How did i get so close for drive intro's. Well it was part of my ticket package. I have to say the ticket weren't cheap 325.00 for three days. But out parking spot was awesome are seats were awesome and we had some great meals in this tent area. Plus if we wanted beer or pop we could go down to the tent and get them for cheaper then what the general public was paying. We also could go down close to the starting line to see the cars take off. It really was a fun weekend in Vegas.

Back to Vacation plans i get home from Vegas the 24Th of July. Go back to work on the 25Th work till August 6Th. The at 11;55 on the 6Th i head out to Minneapolis, Mn to see some racing friends and go to the drag races in Brainerd ,Mn two hours north of Minneapolis. I get into Minneapolis at 5am. There better be a Starbucks right around the corner I'm going to need one. i head home on the 12th. But before i head home i hope to catch a twins game. They will be playing the Yankees and if it works out i will be there to see the game.

My flight home leaves at 1pm and I'll be home at 3pm of so. then i wash my clothes pack my bags and head to the airport on Thursday the 14Th for my annual trip to so-cal. I'll get to see my friends Carolyn her mom Joanie and lots of racing. I'll be going to Irwindale speedway for the Camping World west race. Also will be at my favorite place the Del Mar horse track. I truly look forward to this trip every year. I come home that Monday and head back to for Thursday morning the 21st.

I'm going to finish today's blog with a picture of my good buddies daughter Madison. This is from a few weeks ago at her t-ball game. It was a ton of fun watching her play. I'll be back next week to talk about the chance of there being a triple crown winner this year in horse racing.
