Hey gang! Well it happened again, or maybe I should say it didn’t happen again. My Rush Racing crew and I were hopeful for a better outing than we experienced at the Gators, but the gremlins were mysteriously still there. I am going to get one of those little bells to hang on my S&S-powered Buell V-twin to scare them away. I just called my friends at Doc’s Harley Davidson in St. Louis and they are sending me a Gremlin Bell immediately. It is being shipped to G2 Motorsports today so that George can hang it on my bike and rid my baby of those pesky mongrels! Of course the guys at G2 are also going to work hard at fixing whatever is holding us back and I am going to keep practicing and maintain my focus for my next race in Atlanta but the Gremlin Bell from Doc’s sure won’t hurt.

Before Houston, I had a chance to relax a bit and spend some time with my boyfriend’s family. Have I mentioned how much I love that family? They are such a great group of people and I am so blessed to have found them. We went out to Seth’s parents for Easter weekend. They live on a lake in North Louisiana. I am a genuine Cajun girl and I absolutely love the water so being there is so surreal to me. They have a big beautiful house right on the lake and also a one-bedroom, one-bath boat house right over the water. It’s so cute. I would be so content just to live in the boat house. The kids painted eggs and Seth and Jacob fished and I just relaxed and enjoyed my time with Mrs. Lynn and the rest of the girls away from the real world for a while. On Easter Sunday we drove to my brother Rickie’s house for a barbecue and watched my little nephews enjoy an Easter egg hunt. Logan was running so fast to find more eggs that he was dropping the one’s he had in his basket. It was a beautiful and blessed day for sure.

I forgot to mention in my earlier blogs that while I was in Gainesville for the Gators, I visited the Jungle Friends Primate Sanctuary, where Andy will be living. During our rain delay on Friday, my dad and I drove over to visit with Kari, the lady who runs Jungle Friends. It was so awesome to see all of the monkeys and how happy they are living there. I was relieved to know that Andy will be much better off and will most certainly be in great hands. Kari obviously loves them very much and gives every bit of her time and attention to these little guys. Although Kari is doing an outstanding job of caring for the 100 monkeys that are there, she really does need our support. If any of you reading this are animal lovers and want to help, please, go to www.junglefriends.org and give what you can. I was in awe when I saw the amount of work that she puts into caring for these animals and the fact that she does it with no funding other than donations. So if any of want to help, contact Kari and tell her that it’s for Andy and his future friends. Tell her I sent ya!

Well I hope you guys are all enjoying the season so far, I do want to thank those of you that write to me on my MySpace page. Your support has been amazing and greatly appreciated by my whole team. All of us at Klement Racing are keeping our chins held high and are enjoying the ride no matter what happens at the end of the day. Karl says, and I agree, that as long as we are having fun and working hard, the rest will fall into place. I feel blessed and extremely fortunate for the team I have and I know things are going to go our way really soon. I know that God has a plan for me and I am going enjoy the path he puts me on no matter what! I continue to remind myself daily that through Christ, all things are possible and that he answers my prayers his way and at his time, not mine. So I’ll continue to work hard and wait patiently for my day to come.



Guess what time it is?

Just after the Easter break, Boudreaux Jr. was in class when the teacher asked for anyone to state what they believed was the greatest invention ever and why.

Lil Justine raised her hand and was called upon. She said, “The greatest invention ever was the telephone because I can call my Maw Maw and Paw Paw and also all of my friends, and if I ever need help, I can call 911.”

The teacher said “Very good, Justine, anyone else?”

Little Joey raised his hand and said, “ I think the greatest invention was the television” “Why?” asked the teacher.

Joey replied, “Because we can watch movies and learn from the TV and even see the weather for when the hurricanes are coming!”

“Wonderful, anyone else?” said the teacher.

Bout this time Boudreaux Jr. raised his hand and said “May ah tink the greatest invention was dah Thermos!”

The teachers says, “The thermos? But Boudreaux, all that a thermos does is keep hot things hot and cold things cold”

Boudreaux proudly replies, “YEAH, BUT HOW DO IT KNOW?”
