Good news: I made an earlier flight out of DFW, bad news: there isn't much choice between 4:00 PM and 8:30 PM if you want to go from Charlotte to New Bern.
Great week in TX, got a lot done and had a superb dinner at Del Frisco's. I love their steaks, but after sampling the ahi................................
Putin presented the trophies at the Russian Formula One Grand Prix Sunday, insert funny caption here. Very surreal scene, and I really enjoyed watching him stand at attention for the driver and constructor's national anthems. Great Britain and Germany. No hard feelings anyone?
Pictures:Audi R8 in Hampton. The picture doesn't do it justice, bright and shiny copper color
Elizabeth's ride for last Sunday, Kahlua. I don't know anything about horses, but I really enjoy going to watch her ride
And there she goes.........................
My old buddy Jay Wells from 1983 at Bristol. I guess I'd forgotten that he ran victory lane for NASCAR for a while before going to work for US Tobacco. He said Dale looked at him and said "hey troll, we won, party tomorrow night"
The NC mountains in some of their late afternoon glory. I'll be going through there next week, wish it was on my bike
This guy used to walk around Rocky Mount picking up bottles. His hands did not have enough strength in them to pick up the discarded bottle, so he pushed the bottle with his feet over the lip of the wagon; it seems as though someone tied his hands to the wagon so he could pull it. After he collected a wagon-full someone took him to the Pepsi plant where he sold these bottles (to me for a couple of summers) at $.02 a piece. Tell me again about how hard your job is, and yes, my job also. And yes sadly I remember making fun of him, but quite the inspiration.
