Your welcome Minnie. Have a little time off and post the things that interest me. Went to the opening races of Indiana Sprint Week last night. Great night of racing. After the race while we were waiting for the crowd to disperse we walked down on the dirt track. Pretty rough and hard with a lot of rubber down on it.
One bad accident during the night. Sprint car tumbled sideways in the air. Think he did at least 6 flips. Driver got out on his own but went to the hospital. Even with all the safety equipment and restraining devices and no wall to hit. When one of the those cars tumble violently it scrambles the brain on the driver. Usually it takes them a few days to recover normal vision and brain function.

Reading his driving posts and army stuff is like reading a biographical novel. It's all the little things that make it so interesting.

As a paramedic I could and did volunteer for lots of stuff, but not anymore. I value my time off more than ever at this later stage of my life. I did get into a Joan Jett concert for free a few July 4th's back and that was neat. A heck of a storm blew through the middle of it, but no one got hurt and we all had fun.
