Still on Vacation

This has been a busy vacation. All fun and not much work for us. Chuck mowed Kim's yard so we could make a baby blanket for one of her friends. We actually got 2 backs done but only one totally finished. Went to friends one night for dinner and games. It was a lot of good food and a more laughs.

We took off to Fallon the next day. Stopped and had lunch in Lovelock and a great Bar-b-q place, at least it used to be great. They didn't have a cook, we had cabbage salad and Tri-tip sandwiches, they were ok. Back on the road again, we went about 5 miles and Kim & I had a blow out on our tailer. Of course we had no spare. Chuck & I set on the side of the rode while Carl & Kim found a tire. Cost double cause the tire shops are closed here on Sat. Carl's car is Charger, he runs in the super pro class. This class is for cars that do about 180 mph in 1/8 of a mile. He did about 144 mph on his runs. He started to fast and went out in the first round. This is his first year driving this car, so they are still getting used to each other. He's raced the Duster before.

Talk about hot, it's been in the 90's and 100's. It cools down at night. Kim's car is a 1970 Duster, she runs in the Pro class. The picture is of her do a burnout before her run. She went out in the 2nd round. We enjoyed watching everyone race. We all camped at the track for the night. One of the gals, made soft shell tacos for everyone. We took chips and dips. Rose took birthday cake for those having Birthdays in July. The racers are a fun bunch of people and support each other in everything. We made alot of new friends and renewed some friendships with others. It's been a great 2 weeks. Just so everyone know, Nevada isn't only about gambling it's about fun people and trying new things. We've done some gambling but have spent alot of time just doing fun stuff. It's back home on Wednesday for rest and work and saving up to do this again. If your on my facebook check out more of my pictures. Thanks for stopping back, I'll be back to cardmaking and scrapping next week. Have a lot of pictures to do up. Come back again.

Hugs,

Vacation fun

We're still on vacation. Had a really nice trip down. The weather was warm but tolerable, going home might be a different story. Spent the end of the week just messing around. Went to a bar-b-q on Sat. night. Was nice to see some old friends and make some new ones. Sunday we went to Reno. Got our motel room and went down to the street fair. It was a chicken wings cook off. They had a lot of boothes and some pretty good wings. Anywhere from not so spicy to very. Rose bought me a new hat for the ballgame as she didn't like the one I had. I'll share a picture when I get to the ballgame. We went to the parking garage for the fireworks. They shot them off over the ball park. Some very pretty ones. Was just like when we were younger sitting on the tailgate drinking beer (except I don't like beer). Then we did some gambling and headed to bed. Monday we ate and headed to the ballpark. Walked about 2 blocks, got there at 11:00 and stood in line until 12:05, each of us got a bar-b-q set that said Acers. Their the AAA team for the Arizona Diamonds. It was a real good game. We almost got hit by a foul ball, the game a row up and behind us caught it. Here's out ballpark picture. The only bad part about my hat is it didn't cover my nose, so it got redder. Our arms burnt, but are turning brown now. We spent Monday shopping, that was fun. Our next adventure will be the car races this weekend. Then we'll be heading for home. Today, we're making aprons and baby blankets. I'll share when we get one made.

Thanks for coming by. Stop by again and see what silliness I'm up to.

Hugs,
