Drivers, Start Your Engines!

Last weekend Tonya stayed in Carrollton while I went back to Normal so I could go to the NASCAR races at the Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, IL. with old friends. While we don't go much any more, Tonya and I went to the Indianapolis 500 time trials for more than 20 years with these guys in the 70's, 80's, and 90's. They have continued going to the Indy 500 as well as several other Indy car and NASCAR races every year. Friday night was the Nationwide Series 300 mile race and Saturday night was a Sprint Cup 400 mile race. Lots of fun with guys I don't see very often.

Jerry, Dewey, and Rod. It occurs to me the term "old friends" is starting to have a whole new meaning.

We will be in Greenfield until Friday.
