Homestead Race

Well if you're a race fan, today is an exciting day to determine who wins the championship but it also means that we have to wait 90 days till we get to see some more racing!  Go Brad.

Last year my Mom, Dad, David and I were able to attend the greatest finish in cup history!  We met David in Boynton Beach and both arrived about the same time after traveling all day.  We caught up and went to dinner at Outback.  By the way my Dad and I always count on David to be the DD...well when we stepped up to the bar and asked who needed a drink he ordered one...we said no problem Mom is still here...yea you guessed it she ordered one also!  Luckily none of us drank much and David got us home.

The next morning we headed to the race and it was a fairly easy trip but in south Florida you don't pay for tolls you just go under them and they bill you later which my Dad is still holding over our heads!

 

It is an easy track to get in and out of along with a great place to watch a race. There were plenty of sites and things to see before the race which we all enjoy.

The truck is so tall or they are so short that they can't even look in the window

 

It was a very windy day and we had some rain but the race was exciting.

The rain is messing up my hair!

 

Tony wins the championship

 

 

On Monday morning we got up and drove to David's house in Palm Harbor for a quick visit with Diane.  We ate lunch at Molly Goodheads which is one of my favorite restaurants.

 

 

That night we ate at The Lucky Dill which was outstanding and is one of Diane's favorite restaurants.

 

The next day we were back on the road heading to NC.  It sure was a lot of driving for 4 days but also a ton of fun.
