Re: Live from our Southern Tour 2012
 

Nitro Joe, you were right. Larry did have a 2 step problem. It was fun getting to the 4th round. Just wish it hadn't been Jeff who beat us then. That would have been better in the finals. We are staying to cheer Jeff on! I have some pics I am going to try and post. The internet here has been awful. If I don't get them to go now, I will post them after we leave here.

Patsy,

Sorry Larry had the porblem, I was pulling for y'all. Nice to meet both of you and again, thanks for all your labor of love in posting pictures at the strip and also on y'alls travels around the country.

We are still here in Gainesville, waiting to cheer Jeff on! They are drying the track now. Just a little bit of rain for the last couple of hours. Still have lots of pics to post but I don't get to stay on long enough to get them done. We are leaving first thing in the morning for the 600 mile trip to Belle Rose, so I will post on the way if I can't tonight.

Patsy, see you in Belle Rose! It's been a while and I'm looking forward to seeing you guys (plus a certain little 2 yr old)! Be safe..

Well nothing is going on here. They were drying the track, but now nothing is happening. We were watching basketball Bracketology and missed the announcement if we are done for the evening but evidently that is the case.

Pat, look forward to seeing you later in the week.

If the internet holds up, I will try to post some pics.

I'm glad Patsy never made it down to "the beach" to take pictures...I look like a bumblebee in the yellow & black firesuit!

We will be back at it in the morning....pits are pretty deserted & quiet on a Sunday night! Probably a good thing!

Well here we are still in FL on Monday morning. The Top Fuel cars are about to go down. There are 4 cars left in all the pro categories. Hopefully things will go well today and they will finish up they are hoping by 1. Then we will be on the road headed to Belle Rose. We will give you updates along if the internet holds out.
