Geez - I'm finally back and feel like I was on a food tasting tour ---- first stop was at the Labrecque compound for a little Shepherds Pie which was terrific----they also had four kinds of cheese cake but I passed so I could eat other stuff later.After eating a little most of us got to watch Marc and co. change his PowerGlide and cuss a little -- always fun when you don't have to work ---- just watch .Next it was off to "Uncle Bucks" for some of the best and biggest scallops I've ever seen - they were grilled nicely and wrapped in bacon (and cooked by chef Tommy Goldman ) . Throw in some shrimp that were drowned in old bay along with fresh corn --- opps I almost forgot about the two huge pork roasts he had on the grille that are always a treat .After that I was waddling home when I stopped for a minute in Michael Iaconos' pit to say hello and they were grilling some really good looking steak kabobs but I couldn't fit a thing more in me - a real shame but enough is enough .

Enough about food -- tomorrow is our last time shot then its finally race time -- time trials are starting at 8:30 ............gotta sleep off this food .......... till then .............
