"Live" from Norwalk Summit Nationals

[Larry Hill]

Well first of all, they are not parking at Linder's Lot! We have had a very interesting evening! We are parked at Walmart about 4 miles from the track. We got here around 5 and all of us went Walmart shopping. We had just finished shopping and were putting everything away in the motorhomes when we heard the storm sirens. Mike and Paula Cotten, being from Oklahoma knew just what they were. Eric and Deb Bell being from Arizona didn't know at all what was going on. The sky had turned black and the wind was blowing and a little rain. We all went back into the Walmart and everyone was told to get in the back of the store. Tornado warnings were all around. We were in Walmart for probably half an hour with the power off for just a few of those minutes. Then the warnings were lifted and there was just high wind warnings. And it poured down rain! After it calmed down a little we went to a great Mexican restaurant and enjoyed a great meal. Then we drove out to the track. There were quite a few trees and limbs down on the way. There was lots of rain, but I think it has been pretty dry here, so Linders Lot did not look too bad. We plan on being out there when they open at 8 in the morning. We will post more then. Oh there is still room here at Walmart for more rigs tonight. There are only 6 here now.

Those storms must like trekking down I-80, following you from Joliet. Good luck at Norwalk

We are in and parked at Linders Lot. We are #2 in line behind Mike Walter. It was all in the timing this morning. They did not open the gate until 8:00 and people were pulled off the side of the road, but the local traffic did not seem too happy to see us. The grass is wet, but it has been so dry here, most of the rain soaked in. There are about 20 rigs here so far.

Joe, we will see you tomorrow.

Jim, thanks for the good luck wishes. We need them!

More later.

Well it has been a nice relaxing day here in line. I got the motorhome cleaned up and that was about it. Just had a good dinner with the Cottens and Bells. They were all worn out after a day at Cedar Point! There is still only 40 or so cars in line, except for the comp line which it didn't look like were numbered.

Tomorrow is a sleep in day with more lounging.

More later.

Oh, BTW, we were sitting around talking after dinner and Larry got ***** on by a bird. Hopefully things will go better later in the week. LOL

Tell Larry it gets worse after you get a bald spot. I think they aim for shiney things. I have been hit so many times that I have friends who will no longer stand next to me outdoors, for fear of stray "bullets". LOL
