I have to say, I love when the racing season begins. We listened to the opening NHRA race Sunday on the computer, until the final rounds, and then we watched the ESPN 2 coverage. I thought it was a great first race. I can’t wait until the series arrives in Gainesville where we get to play, too. I am leaving for Florida on Friday. It will be a quick weekend trip. We are going to be at the Fort Meyers Harley Davidson dealership on Saturday, and then testing on Sunday. So, if you happen to be in south Florida this upcoming weekend, come on by the HD dealership and say hi. Our friends at the Fort Meyers HD dealership have always been very nice and supportive of the team. It will be great to spend some time there. The sunny weather is a great draw for me, also.

It was a nice weekend here in Nevada, with the thermometer reaching the high 60s. It stayed in that range for Monday and Tuesday, then Wednesday I opened my blinds as I headed off to work at 5:30 a.m., and the ground was covered with a couple inches of snow. It’s dropped back down to the 20s and 30s now. I didn’t have a chance to take a picture in the morning; however, it was still light when I came home so here is a picture of the storm. It was actually clear and sunny when I came home, but the storm in the picture I had to drive through to get home.

You know, the variation in weather is probably one of the things I love about this area. It does, sometimes, wreak havoc on plans, but I can live with that. On the other hand, I will be glad to spend three days in the sunny 80-degree weather in Florida.

Well, before I sign off for the night, I wanted to say thanks to all the fans that are sending in e-mail questions and comments for me to talk about. Keep them coming.

Goodbye for now.
