Off To The Race Track

Mesmerized by the loud hum of the motors, the whoosh of wind as they sped past us, and the thrill of watching go-karts hit speeds into the 70's, AJ was glued to the track last Sunday as we watched one of my second grade students take first at a local Motorsports Series Race.

He shouted a spirited, "race car...fast" and pointed fiercely at the track as the go-karts rounded each corner.  Although dad is not up for starting a family racing team, I was psyched to find out that adults can race!  It's gotta be a better adrenaline rush than I-25 in the mornings and there's no risk of getting pulled over.  The only thing holding me back is...well...being with child, but give me a few months ,and I plan to hit the track next spring.  Maybe not racing, but try a few laps.  I've always wanted to dry dirt bike racing also...

On to other exciting news...Abby and I would just like to thank the Boy Scouts of America for chocolate covered carmel popcorn.
