Sun Shines Today

But the temperature is still pretty cool. We woke up to the sound of our neighbor on the South saying, "All Aboard!" We had said our goodbyes last night after the pot luck. Hopefully we will be seeing them again. They are headed home to Las Vegas today. I had a good sleep last night, but still pretty slow getting around this morning. We headed into Casa to the Walmart Pharmacy to get my scrip refilled. Got here to the corner and spotted one of John Forces little Ford Flex Wagons at Carl Jrs. so had to stop in and talk to them and find out more about yesterday. It was a couple of the team mechanics.....John lost his final race, but he's still in 1st place in the overall points, and they are headed to Indiana before heading on east to Gainsville Florida for another big race in 2 weeks. It was rainy and miserable yesterday too and they said we didn't miss anything except more sitting around waiting. An article in the paper today identified the woman who died as a 52 year old dental assistant with an infectious laugh. She was out here from Wisconsin visiting her son and friends, and had lost her husband, a firefighter, to cancer in '08. It just goes to show that you need to have your house in order, no one knows how long we have or what the circumstances might be. That deal Sunday was a freak accident...but when it's your time it doesn't matter. I'm still sluggish and have a real big sinus headache...probably from all the Nitro Fuel I inhaled over the weekend. I'm heading in to the gym now to get back on the band wagon.
