Racing / Family recap

Yo Yo Yo, so I'm back at work after a very fun weekend. It was the weekend that kept on giving. Not just racing, but family visits as well.

Let's start with the races, the Busch / Nationwide series (minors) were crashing all over the place and made for an exciting and long race. I camped with Greg and his son Austin, who made it to the races for the first time...big man now at 13!

The trailers were the usual, but the Tums Racing Simulators and the Sprint area was great, I kept listening to the Tums guy try to lure people in by saying "hey, it's calcium your body needs anyway" in the most hillbilly, over gameshow voice ever.

The big race Sunday was great, except the winner was Kyle Busch, who I am not a fan of. I think the highlights of the race weekend were hearing how my uncle and his friend Max were doing side deals just to score a new Tony Stewart jacket, since he has a new team, but his trailers weren't selling it. Very sneaky, hilarious. And Saturday night, hanging with Michelle A. and Greg and getting so drunk that instead of drinking my beer, I poured it on my sweatshirt...that's when we knew it was time to quit.

Monday I got to hang with Willie, Janie and their girls, which is always great. Only this time, we found an awesome "carny hand" prop to deceive pictures with. It was the funniest damn thing I'd seen in a long time, and what made it great was Janie's smart thinking to capture it with pictures, it was an optical illusion where it looked like I had an "inbred jed" hand, even the neighbors kid thought it was my real hand and said "I was trying not to stare." LOL, I know it's totally immature, but when have you really known me to be mature...really.

So I had a great time. I hope the family did too. This is just a brief summary, but I'll be sure to post the pictures and a link to them from my weblog here.

Thanks to all the family and friends who were in Vegas / Henderson, you guys always make me feel at home! Love ya.
