Thanks to mudpacker once again serving as our travel agent on steering us around construction with his directions. Thanks to bigbudman for his hospitality on the backstretch at the burg and at gas city. Thanks to the gang at camp mowerman's at kokomo for treating us to some food, great burgers and brats with all the fixins. I'm on vacation from wisconsin and they still had me "cutting the cheese" like i was at home! Great cheddar and habanero. I made my journey from the backstretch at the burg to say hi to everyone in section 8 and that's always a pleasure, i almost missed the prez (marv) but was able to chat with him before i needed to get back for the heats. Being parked by the motorhomes at gas city is always the place to be, party central if you will! Sunday i was sitting by shortbus in the parking lot and i didn't remember him since i only met him once before but he got my last bag of horseradish cheese and it was nice to see him. All in all it was a great 3 days of visiting and racing and i just wish i could be there every weekend. Until i hit the lottery and let my wife and kids keep all the money it looks like i'm stuck here for now. Wife has no intentions of moving, i tried to work on her but it's not going to happen.

Instead of listing all the friends i had been with this weekend it's just easier to say thanks to the whole entire iow family for letting me spend time with you and hopefully we go to the 3, 4 or whatever crown at eldora or it's going to be until next spring until i can see you again and that's just to damn long! I will stop babbling now cause i'm getting a little misty eyed, i miss you all already. I love indiana.
