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.

larry are there dry county's down there and beer can only
be found on e-bay? and hopefully choices exceed ice beer
,malt liquor, and not only in a 40 ounce container !

Yes, congrats to Mr. Navarre for winning the Combo last night and also to you, Brett, for winning super stock, then running it up in the Combo.

Today is another gorgeous day here in the deep South! Weather shows it going up to about 91, which beats the 96 from yesterday! Stock goes out in about a half hour. Everyone is showing getting 3 qualifying runs today, then eliminations tomorrow. Drag Race Central should be showing the results today.

More later

Location! Location! Location! We have the best pit spot ever thanks to Jimmy Hildalgo , Coty and Zeek. 30 amp power, water, and a place for blackwater looking at the 1/8 mile cone. All of that is great but now comes the good part! We are one spot down from the Garrison racing and cooking compound. They cook every day: pork, chicken, fish, sausage, green beans, crawfish ettafay, seafood balls and just a host of other great Cajun dishes. The smell alone will pick you up two tenths. Mr. Garrison cooks for everybody and everything is wonderful

Something interesting happened this morning during first round of qualifying! They had to stop for a couple of minutes to get the cottonmouth snake off the starting line. Evidently the snake had ridden up on someone's car and fell off when the car left the starting line! Now that's a first!!

It is still hot and humid here!

He must be thinking of Texas.

Only twelve Comp cars?

Ebay beer. Jeff had some old leftover parts that he sent me back in the winter. The parts I did not buy from Jeff I sold on Ebay for beer money. That's why we have Ebay beer. If we don't race a lot this summer we should be liquid enough in our account to cover the refreshment cost of the 60th US Nationals! Ain't nothing like proper planning.

Here's what happened to that big old gator you saw earlier! No, really this is the big pot of jambalaya that Mr. Charley cooked! Enough to feed about 100!


And this is Mr. Charley Cavalier (sp?) pouring in the rice!


Charley!!


Now they had the right idea!! This is little Cooter (Brayden), his Mama (in the green) and Karen (Davee's daughter).

[Larry Hill]

Well it is another hot, humid day here in Belle Rose!! They have called up Super Street and Stock! Ready for some rocking and rolling!!

More later!

[Larry Hill]

Well we now get to watch for the rest of the day! Larry got a little overanxious and red-lighted! He was right behind Jimmy who red-lighted too. Cooter made it thru first round and so did Kevin Helms, so we have somebody to cheer for the rest of the day! And super stock will be up soon, so we can yell for Jeff and Joey Teuton and Kevin and Cooter again!

Happy Birthday today to Steven Hall! He is 43 today! Also with birthdays this week and next are Britt Cummings, Ray Buckner and our neighbors for the weekend- Duke Himel and David Beaudro!
