Morning all
I wanted to watch that but I didn't have the time. Did anyone here watch? How was it?Good morning everyone. It's dirt track day here in Bristol.
Wait @batchaps4me I just looked at your post again, I thought the race was yesterday?I wanted to watch that but I didn't have the time. Did anyone here watch? How was it?
We had a hail storm Saturday night with flash flooding, so they postponed the race. There is a creek on Earhart's farm that abuts the speedway. That field is a bad flood risk so it is a safety deal. The race is today at 1600 EST.Wait @batchaps4me I just looked at your post again, I thought the race was yesterday?
Much abliged. I didn't know any of that. I still wont get to watch it.We had a hail storm Saturday night with flash flooding, so they postponed the race. There is a creek on Earhart's farm that abuts the speedway. That field is a bad flood risk so it is a safety deal. The race is today at 1600 EST.
I am more excited for this race than any in a long time. I used to love going to local dirt tracks with my Dad and baby brother.Much abliged. I didn't know any of that. I still wont get to watch it.
Oh yeah. I like them too. I don't go often (about once a year) but they are fun to watch. My oldest daughter goes alot more than I do, her friends dad races, and she also sings the national anthem for them.I am more excited for this race than any in a long time.

The best races back home were the Pinto's and late models. It was never about the speed of the cars but who would enter the turns already sideways. One old guy would always offer to swap cars with anyone and still beat them. More than one fight happened over bruised egos.Oh yeah. I like them too.

Happy wife happy life!Good morning crew.
After a busy weekend of doing the honey do list, my wife is giving me the day off. We are headed to the beach so I get the honor of driving while she naps. I get the honor of unloading everything (sun umbrella, ice chest, beach chairs, etc) and carrying it to the sand. I get the honor of carrying it all back, and than making the same drive home. Isn't it wonderful how I get the day off.
Seriously though, looking forward to it, its our happy place.
I get annoyed sometimes with the honey dos, but I am coming to realize, it is the very least I can do, and its kind of honor to serve my wife in that way. Painted the house all day yesterday, wrong color, will be painting again, and Im ok with that! Sappy post overGood morning crew.

I’ve painted our master bathroom 3 times in the last 9 months. She picked out the colors and bought the paint, then after a couple of weeks decided she didn’t like the color after all, so we compromised... I painted again. That’s usually how our compromises workI get annoyed sometimes with the honey dos, but I am coming to realize, it is the very least I can do, and its kind of honor to serve my wife in that way.

Enjoy your happy place!

Well said. Although re-painting would be pushing my buttons. I enjoy keeping busy but the one thing in life that I despise doing, is painting.I get annoyed sometimes with the honey dos, but I am coming to realize, it is the very least I can do, and its kind of honor to serve my wife in that way.

The painting isn’t too bad. It’s the prep work (taping etc) and the cleanup that I hate.Well said. Although re-painting would be pushing my buttons. I enjoy keeping busy but the one thing in life that I despise doing, is painting.
I love my wife and feel the same way ... <insert sounds of door closing and car leaving the driveway> ... but I am king of the castle.I get annoyed sometimes with the honey dos, but I am coming to realize, it is the very least I can do, and its kind of honor to serve my wife in that way.
