Well rigs have continued to roll in all day while testing has been going on. We went out for a while this afternoon with Country Dog. I have pictures!

Here are a few pics from yesterday driving the 600 miles down here:

The "Big Muddy" crossing from Dyersburg, TN into Missouri

This is coming back across the "Big Muddy Mississippi River" from Arkansas into Memphis.

Back into Tennessee!

This is in Louisiana crossing the Mississippi again on the Sunshine Bridge!

Coming down off the bridge!

We found this little egret this morning at the end of the racetrack!

Her buddies!

Unusual twin turbo waiting to test today!

Cloudy this morning, but no rain!

And here is Captain Jimmy this afternoon giving us a ride in his party barge with a tour of Lake Verrett. Very pretty.

We don't see anything like these cypress trees up on Kentucky Lake!

Look at the very bottom of the picture! What we were looking for! Scary!!

Here he is again!

More pics of the lake and cypress trees!

Had a great time! Thanks for the tour, Jimmy!

Today should a good one with test and tune 10 am to 3pm for $75 and the Engines Inc. Stock Super Stock Showdown race. Entry for the Showdown race is only $20 we get one time trial and start racing.

Last night we got some more e-bay beer just in case, we don't want to run low. We also purchased some local fresh eggs. The eggs were mixed in size and color, brown, white, and some that had a green tint to a white egg. So this morning we will skip bacon and eggs and dine on the world famous green eggs and ham. Rumor has it that the "Cat In The Hat" aka Jack Roush might be here this weekend to work on some local mustangs, but its only a rumor.

Thanks for the pics Larry & Patsy they ae always great. Does anybody know how fast the twin turbo dragster went ? I have a friend who built one over the winter.

Thanks Jerry

Sorry, Jerry. He was only going to be here yesterday and we didn't see him run.

It is already hot and humid here. Going up to 90 today!
