Friday & Saturday @ 'Dega


We arrived at the Campground after awaking, stopping for breakfast and gas and set up our campsite. We were changed and ready to head to the Track at 10:30 a.m. (remember, we gained an hour when we crossed the Louisianna State Line earlier @ 7:30 CT.

We got a ride from a nice man on a golf cart to the ONMC sign-up booth where I got my wristband and checked in. We made our way to watch Practice and I got some 160+ pictures!

We checked out the merchandise trailers and exhibits and then came back to the RV where Rudy fixed our supper and we relaxed outside under the awning watching Race Fans return from the track!

Cully arrived at midnight.

I woke up early Saturday morning and got up and dressed and left for my 9:00 a.m. Garage Tour with ONMC. It was a great tour. We got to stay in the Garage area for over 45 minutes looking for drivers and crew chiefs and my favorite cars. I got my picture taken with Chad Knause, we saw Sterling Marlin, Tony Eury, Jr., Jeff Hammond, Robbie Loomis, Pat Tryson & others. They all were watching as their cars went through inspection for Qualifying.
After the Tour I came back to the RV and had some lunch, a nap and then I read in the sunshine and breeze.

It's time now for Rudy to start grilling our dinner. So got to go for now.

Tomorrow is RACE DAY in 'DEGA!! Jeff Gordon starts 12th. We'll be there watching and waiting for Jeff to take the Checkers and WIN Three in a ROW here.

Later!
