Second Week in Charlotte

This last week in Charlotte was a rainy one. Amazing that all of the races were on time except for the dirt track race. As the saying goes, it was spring racin' in Charlotte. We also went to two driver autograph sessions and got to speak for a while to Bryan Scott (from Boise, ID, driving in the Nationwide series and currently Rookie of the Year contender). We also visited Wood Brother's shop, who sponsors Bill Elliott's car. We went down to Speed Street, a street fair during the week whose theme is NASCAR. Friday we went to the largest hamburger feed inside the Charlotte track, sponsored by Coca Cola. After doing a 1 1/2 mile walk around the track, we ate hamburgers and chicken from a 1/4 mile long grill and drank Coke Zero. What a hoot! Monday we started driving towards Nashville TN where we will spend a few days. Rachael (daughter) is flying in on Wed and we are going to two performances at the Reiman Theater and visiting the Country Hall of Fame.
