After a very scary ride home.....

The picture is of the lights you use as a guide going over Afton mountain when a very dense fog sets in. They are orange and help you get down the mountain safely. Hubs slowed way down, and all I could see was white fog, so dense 5 feet in front of the coach was a sheet of white..... like a ghost had swallowed us. I was very concerned, but hubs took it slow and we made it through.
I Dont think it would have been so bad had if we didn't have a 35 foot trailer behind our rig. So super slow was the only way to go. The person we were traveling with said he was a nervous wreck while he was driving through there, but made it safely as well. As soon as some pics are posted of the race I will post them, but for now I am unpacking washing clothes and re stocking for our next adventure :).

Test and Tune Wednesday Bristol

we set up camp wednesday night and thursday i had the front of the motorhome all decked out with lantern light along the front, and someone told hubby that there was a weather cell coming through so we clipped the zip ties took down my lanterns........no storm, no nothing.
So Today after a wonderful Red light by hubbs, losing 1st round, I have retired to the coach and am marinading chicken, and chilling in the air conditioning. we have had fun so far and I will hang onto the "fun" parts of this. Drag racing is not for every one, but hubs loves it and I love some parts of it, it would be better if I were racing though...lol.

THUNDER VALLEY!

Panoramic view for your pleasure!

We are on our way to BRISTOL!

We left the house this morning at 4:30am. We are still on the road its 10:15 we should be there in a few minutes. We are going to the Bristol Motor speedway/Dragway. I just saw a sign, Bristol 22 miles!
We are participating in the Spring Fling going for fun and $$$$. Hopefully we will have more of the latter. Lol.
Rolling hills and lots of "overlooks" did I ever tell you I'm afraid of heights...ugh.

The skies on my road

we will be traveling this week to Tennessee for the K&N Spring Fling in Bristol, I do hope we dont meet any skies like this while we are there ..... scarry!

The next night (Sunday) Hubby WON!!!!

He told me over dinner with some friends,
"I couldn't let you show me up"
every body laughed we had a very fun weekend.
The RV was fine, and we found out where a small water leak was coming from....the ice maker. So hubs tightened that up and we shall see in the future if it leaks again :)

Racing is so much fun! I was runner up!

Coffee in the morning is the best part of RV 'ing I think.

To sum up lastnight, I had the most fun I've had in a long time!
Hubby tried his best but just couldn't hit the sweet spot with his car. He was there for me last night and he was the best teacher! Check out the trophy!

Another great weekend at the track, but this weekend ...I'M racing!

Usually when we go to the track my husband is the racer, but this weekend, it's my turn to play.....
I will race my car. It's all stock - a 2012 Chevy Cruze.

My best friend said she would come out and take pics of me while going down the track. I will post those  this weekend.
We plan on taking the RV and my fur babies :)
This weaken end will be pretty relaxed only one day in the vacation station. The previous weekend we learned a valuable lesson....well a couple.
1. Dump the gray water before you go
2. Turn off the power to the chassis when you have the generator running so it preserves the starting power and charges the accessory batteries.

We found ourselves with an RV that wouldn't start b/c we left the chassis power on. Luckily we have some great people who race with us that are keen on the workings of RV/motorhomes :)
Here are some pics of the race cars....

The top one is Hubby's Dragster - Yes that's me just driving it around :)

This is my car I will be racing this weekend.

I have 3 weeks before I start gearing up for my clinicals in phlebotomy.....Then i will probably start a new job. I have a lot of things going on this summer :) So getting our and enjoying the RV is a priority.
