So Martinsville has been postponed due to snow/rain

 

I'm watching the truck race now. Is it raining there now? Is this last years race?

 

Is last seasons race

 

Ahh crap !!!!!

 

They’re right under the edge of change over

 

Well it looks like I'm turning off my DVR then ???

 

The winds are getting really strong here now ,seeing winds from the SSW at 35mph . Whenever there's a strong gust a local business down the street , their alarm goes off

 

Put a roast in the oven, son came over and had half a pound of bacon for lunch on Hawaiian sweet rolls so fried up another pan full. Wife has 2 roasted chickens in the fridge for chicken enchiladas. I figure I'll shred some of the roast for beef enchiladas and slice the rest. Should be pretty good for most of the rest of the week for dinners...maybe a small batch of Mexican rice and beans to go with it.

 

I'll be there in a couple hours !!!

 

1/8th mile Drag Racing is getting exciting to watch , they're almost into the 3.50's nearing 220mph and on a 8.5" tire

This is the fastest 1/8th mile pass and currently the record for Et and mph and was set 3 years ago

Side job today turns into more work. Homeowner states one of his eight foot fixtures is out in his garage, it's the ballast. Suggesting he go with led tubes, change out of all fixtures. Told him it these will outlast you and I...I have had good luck with Hyperikon. https://www.amazon.com/Hyperikon-Sh...pID=51gUG3gRFFL&preST=_SX342_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

 

Do you do a ballast bypass with those?

 

Yes. Company supplys new tombstones. Piece of cake.

 

I’m so tired and feet are throbbing .
Made me think of this

Roast is done, pears, apples and sweet onion in the dehydrator need a few more hours...wondering if the onion taste is going to leak over onto the pears and apples. Never has it before so we'll see.

 

I’m also hungry.
Drop some off when it’s done eh?!

 

I took down 200 miler antenna and pole and other stuff. It made it. 2 hauls and I’m spent.

According to the ticker tape on the bottom of the tv screen it's postponed till after the race tomorrow.
