"Live" from our Southwestern Swing

The Lambert family

Look at the size of those rolls and jug of sweet tea!

Larry said this was rice????

Cotten!!! A whole field of it!

And this was our first casualty of the trip! The tread came off the trailer tire and blew out. We didn't know it when it happened. A nice guy passed us and kept pointing. He pulled over when we did and came back and said he thought our trailer was on fire! Thank goodness it was only the tire! So by the time Larry changed the tire and then we stopped in Springfield, MO and bought 2 more (just in case), we lost a couple of hours today.

Hopefully tomorrow will go better and I will get some shots at the racetrack for you.

Oh, we passed a little convenience store that it looks like Bo Kenney might own. It was called the "Kum and Go"!

X2 - It's almost like being there in person.

Well we are back on the road this morning. A beautiful blue sky, a little windy, trees are starting to turn color. I missed the "Welcome to OK" sign while I was looking up something on the computer. Oh well, there will be other states! We are on the Will Rogers Turnpike, but we didn't see the humor in the $16.50 toll! Well more later.

Damn, that looks like Paul Bunyan changing a tire! I would need a forklift to do that! Big Guy! Big Truck! LOL

We're here, we're here, we're here!!! We got passed by Mike Walters just a flying somewhere this morning! Looks like anybody who is in the running for points is here this weekend. We rode around a little and saw a bunch of Div. 5 guys here. Hagberg, Siebert, Johnson and we were told Scott Burton would be here later. Then Irvin Johns is parked right next to us. Oh if you want to come visit, we are outside the gate along the road so after it rains, we can hopefully drive out (or at least be easy to pull out with the tow hooks on the front). This morning the weather forecast was not looking too good. Maybe even up to 5 inches of rain in spotty areas. Hopefully this won't be one of the spots. I took a few pics that I will post a little later. Got to get everything set up now.
