Good morning - No need for the trip to Home Depot this morning as the rains have stopped ( hopefully for good ) and we don't have to pick-up lumber for the ark .It would have been a long sail today to Brainerd - with the zoo there it was necessary to go and get the animals .

At any rate its still overcast here with no Sun peeking out what-so-ever .Today calls for everyone getting one more hit and then on to elims but it will surely be a few hours before that happens ..........and its getting very stuffy in here already as the humidity and temps are rising fast .Geez- I really feel the need for a shower and I had one a half hour ago .Tech will be open in an hour so if you need to ..........

I was reminded this morning that one of my "new blood " people I wrote of last evening - Neil Goldstein - was runner-up at Indy in the late seventies - welcome back Neil .

Bring back the "good ole days" when we went to shopping malls for tech - we just parked there and waited - everyone was happy ..............Can you imagine this many motorhomes and trailers at a local mall ? Later with some pics ...........

Opps - one last thing - would you believe the Internet service here is 4G and is lightning fast but I've got zero TV reception ..........
