My view from the Martinsville bleachers.
Today I attended my first NASCAR race and it was AWESOME! It was loud but nothing some ear plugs didn't fix. I had such a blast. The track is call the paperclip because it's short and has super rounded corners. No massive wrecks, but some fun spin outs to watch. Oh and Harvick's engine blew up at the end and one guy kept losing all his gauges and battery power. Good times! I would have to say I really really liked it. So much so that I would consider picking a team to follow. Jimmie Johnson won today and that's who my friends cheered for. I'll always have a soft spot for Dale Jr, but I also like Harvick and Kane. I'll have to do my research.
It was an interesting drive down and back, we left and came back in the dark and in the rain. The superstorm is colliding as I type and we could tell outside. Temperatures are in the upper 30's and the wind is horribly gusty. David has a Ford Super Duty and it was being blown around quite a bit. I am super nervous about how this storm is shaping up, everything I read or watch is saying it's the worst case scenario. Good thing I have food and water for a couple days. Now I just need to make it through and figure out where my employer needs me most. I'm starting to think I should cancel my interview for Thursday. I cannot imagine I get to leave the East Coast soon. Now I hope they still let me take my vacation in 2 weeks.
