What makes you smile LIKE A KID ?
The races @ Lima Land Speedway have been over….
for more than an hour….

and I AM STILL SMILING…  !! ! !

There is nothing quite like being so close to men driving CRAZY FAST…
Close to each other, dirt flying…the rumble of motors….
The intense chance of wrecking…
The white flag and the last turn….
Up on 3 wheels…and then the CHECKERED FLAG…..

AMAZING…

To top it off :

1.  Jackie Miller was in one of the TRUCKS…racing…
that in itself adds a whole NEW demension..
anxiety, PRAYER, pride,  HE WAS AWESOME !
2.  Trey….the little boy who just a miracle walking…
sitting with your grandkids and seeing them just love on him !
3.  Picking a “NUMBER/ Driver” when they come onto the track…
betting a quarter with your grandkids and Trey…on who will win.

( Marilyn and I use to do this at the Allen County Fair on horses….lol )
shhhhhhhhhhh  don’t tell anyone…but it was for peanuts….lol

4. Sitting by my Dad and Tug….
a. my Dad has always loved racing…and he has put ALOT of my
love of motors/ cars, the sound, the smell…speeding tickets….etc.
b. sitting with Tug….in which our family got to go to Michigan…
t.v. – etc. and just fond memories of ” good times” at a track !

** what makes you smile….that “life on earth”  can’t wipe off ?

JESUS…is a hands down !! ! !!

with AFRICA getting close…pressure, etc.
it felt GREAT to release some of that in some good old ” rootin’ ” for the boyz
behind the wheel  – – – GO JACKIE !
