Live from Reynolds, GA!

We got here about 11 last night and we are #56 in line. The only thing I can tell you about who is here is that there is a red truck on the right side and a big white truck on the left. It started raining sometime during the night and hasn't stopped. It is 8 now and we are supposed to be moving in, but the way it looks now, we may be here til noon or til it quits raining. Heard on the radio that there is a tractor trailer turned over on 475, so they are diverting traffic. Hope nobody got caught in that traffic jam.

I will give you more updates after we get inside the gates.

Patsy,

I'm jealous. A bad day in the rain racing far surpasses any day in the office. Tell Larry good luck to this weekend.

Hey Bruce,
Wish you were here. We are cooking some ribs and I could go get some cabbage to go with it if you were here.

Well, they are moving us in and it is still pouring rain. Hopefully they are showing us where to park since we don't have a clue. Have seen lots of motorhomes pulling in without trailers. The pros??

More later.

There is lots of parking space here. Got pitted fine without getting stuck. Problem is now all the roads are muddy getting back out to the pavement. Unloaded the car, and have been out trying to find a path to go tech without getting too muddy. It is still sprinkling, but they are drying the track. Said they are going to try to get some racing in today. Saw Harold Culpepper and Merrill and Donna Schrimsher. Didn't see any of the pros yet, but I'm sure they're here. Did see Randy Wilkes getting teched. Country Dog and Puppy are here. Talked to Jeff Teuton and he wussed out on us. Didn't want to drive thru all that rain yesterday.

Midstate RV is throwing a BBQ and Karaoke tonight. It is being catered by Sonny's BBQ. I'm sure it will be good. Thanks in advance to Midstate. I think I am going down and look at some of the motorhomes they have for sale here.

Well more later.

The nice tech guys just came by the trailer and teched us in. It is still sprinkling rain, but looks like it might be clearing out a bit.

Too bad its raining. Looks like its going to be 1 qualifing shot on saturday and 1st round on saturday afternoon. I am sure glad I didnt waste the trip there. I hate the races where they run 1 st round on saturday.

Patsy,

Thank you for the reports and best of luck to you this weekend! Please remind Randy Wilkes to stay off the golf carts while he is down south!!!

Guys,

When that weather clears out and the humidity drops get ready for some BIG numbers.

Tim Bodrey the GM, will provide you with some serious traction.

You should be flying.

Good luck to all.

Cancelled out for today. Everyone gets 2 runs tomorrow, then they will decide about 1st round. Fixing to go to the BBQ. We will go by and tell Randy to be careful.

It's wine time!!
Later.
