On The Way to Indy

Only four days have passed, yet I am getting ready for another adventure out in our great country. The Indianapolis 500 is one of the crown jewels in auto racing and my coworker just happen to have an extra ticket. Honestly, what is any guy gonna do? We are driving and leaving tonight for Dallas to stay with some of his relatives and relax before the huge drive on Friday up to Indy. Saturday we hang around and do some backyard beers and brats and resting from this crazy trip. Sunday is live at track race… I should be in turn 4 in somewhere in the grand stands, I will try to give a more exactly location once I’m there via Twitter. Then we watch the race again on TV that night because they delay the airing of it so that people can come home from the race and catch what they missed on TV. Kinda strange but I enjoy racing. Monday, which is Memorial Day we will be driving home like bandits to travel the 1100 miles back to College Station. I will be sure to take a bunch of pictures so I can share it with the rest of ya. I know I said I would post more about my DC trip but I just have not had the time because of the Indy trip so close together. Those should come next week once I am back and don’t have any trips planned, however then it gets close to moving time so beware more delays may be ahead.

Ready for a Little Vaycay

Today I leave for parts of the country unknown (to me at least), I am headed to Washington DC. This swamp is home to our congress, president and many other crazy agencies that I’m sure are watching me type this blog post. We plan on checking out all the cool monuments that our tax dollars have purchased and maybe hassle our representative about some governmental issue that currently escapes me. In any case, I’m sure Jen and I will have a good time discovering the city and how to get around using their subway system. The one crown jewel for me on this trip I am looking forward to is the Smithsonian, it should be quite the experience at least that is what I am hoping for. The weather looks like it will be okay, we will have a few rainy days but there looks to be plenty of inside activities to do once we get there. We are technically staying across the river in Arlington, VA so we will get to commute in everyday as well. Here is wishing that all our luggage makes it and our flights are not delayed. Good Day.
