Thank you, got it in time.

We used to see the Monarchs in Pacific Grove, California.

Tubebender. Let me revise, extend and correct my remarks. :) We will be going Downriver from GP. Savage Rapids Dam is upriver at Josephine. I assumed our trip was “Up”, (even though I’ve been on it before) because of incline of the coast range it runs thru and over to get to the coast. There is another dam up above Shady Cove, N of Medford, E of GP. We pass by it on the way to Medford from Bend.

Now all I have to do is figure out if the drivers go clock-wise or counter-clock-wise.

Drivers are picked and it’ll be another paws over the eyes time for qualifying/racing.

A question I have always been curious about and have never heard asked:

Is there something wrong with Richard Petty’s eyes? I have never seen him w/o shades on.

Saturday night weather should be perfect. It’s been a very wet summer, which has been most welcome after the drought.

This comes from Obama’s personal MSM network NBC. Barf!

Obama is a NASCAR Guy

The president looked more comfortable with the NASCAR guys than his predecessor did.

Well now that you let slip what has led to your success in the league I can relax as from now on your you will be thinking “turn left turn left turn left” and you will fade into obscurity. On a serious note you must remember that water (rivers) flows downhill everywhere in the world but California...

Hey folks! I’ve moved and don’t have internet now. Online at a relative’s home tonight - cause I’m in South Carolina and headed over to Bristol for both the Nationwide and Cup races this weekend! Ya’ll enjoy the race now ya hear? I’ll be the woman they catch drooling all over Junior sometime in the next coupla days. ;-)

Thanks ya’ll. I’m really really looking forward to this. We go up first thing in the morning. T’storms in the forecast for the Nationwide race time but I don’t care, we’re here to stick it out till they run all the race. Forecast looks a bit more hopeful for the Cup race. I’m still pinching myself that after all these years I’m getting to see not just the big race - but both races at BMS.

Will post pictures if we ever manage to get internet access at our new remote home.
