Tidbits and notes....
Light day of Blog reading and gonna' be the same for Blog writing. Julie took Jack to a baseball tournament in New Mexico so I've had a chance to catch up on the yard work and do a few things of interest. Like attending the local Boy Scout Jamboree. I've been wanting to get involved in scouting again...and after talking to some of the leaders today, I just might. Senior advisor to a troop was mentioned. Light on the "senior" please.
Also today, via the Speed Channel, I've been able to follow the live racing coverage of the 12 hours of Sebring, which I must get back to directly....as I write the conclusion will be in about 45 minutes. It was 40 years ago today that Chaparral Racing won the event. Coming directly on the heels of this all day coverage will be live coverage of the Malaysian Grand Prix at Sepang where it looks like the Renaults are doing well again after their surprise showing in Australia. A late night, as the coverage begins at 1 A.M. local time. [Sunday update: a late night indeed, to sleep at 2:45, but worth the effort. A good race with a Renault winning, for the second straight race, but a different car than Australia].
Of note today, I caught an interesting article concerning the volunteer army in Stars and Stripes by my old friend Gen. Dick Cody. Dick and I were 2Lt's together and have remained close friends. I'm proud to say that Dick was the first to phone me in the hospital during my recent cardiac capers.
So long.....it's back to racing.
