the DirecTV Blimp is flying overhead, 
there's a Jeff Gordon chair in a tree (his cardboard cut out used to be up there, but they burned it one time),
and the party is seeming to begin here at the Indianapolis KOA.
Life is all about "the stories".
This is ours from our RV somewhere in the U.S.

Honey.....the NASCAR folks are here!
We're proud alumni of THE Ohio State University and big Jimmy Buffett fans. Tailgating is nothing new to us.
This is, however, our first time being in a city where the NASCAR guys come to town. And with them, of course, their fans. We had some of the workers in early who detailed the cars, but now we're getting the true fans of the race coming in and decorating their rigs.

Another Great Day in Indy!
The hits just keep on coming! Yesterday wasn't much to talk about, Mondays are usually pretty busy at the business.
We did have a flyover by the DirecTV blimp, which I think is being housed at the Indianapolis Regional Airport just north of here. Will probably see her more this week with the NASCAR Brickyard 400 in town.
Worked this morning, then headed to David's Bridal and Men's Wearhouse (practically next door to each other) and Bob got sized for his tux and Connie get her dress. What a racket is all I'll say.
Then we headed for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, home of this weekend's Brickyard 400. Third time we've been there, but the first time since the late 80's when Bob's high school band played in the pre race parade for the Indy 500.
Took the $5pp tour around the track with a nice narration track (we were the only two in the coach). That straightaway feels so narrow, I can't imagine what it's like in one of those rockets on wheels, let alone the taxi cabs that will be there this weekend. Very cool to see the strip of bricks and the winner's circle, though.
