"Live" from Joliet Div. 3 points race!
 

It is a beautiful day here in Joliet! We are already in the racetrack and parked. They are parking until 5 this evening, then stacking after that. You need to come in on Schweitzer Road and enter Gate 1 on the left and will be stacked at the Nascar track. I don't know what time they will begin parking tomorrow. The schedule shows not until 2, but since they were already parking today, they might start earlier. When we came in, we about had our choice of spots on the concrete, but since it is going to be 90 later in the weekend, we opted for grass. We are up close to the fuel tanks. Stop by to see us when you get here.

The grounds look great here. Lots of mowed grass and very clean. It doesn't look like it has rained in a while, so there shouldn't be any issues at all with mud. Also it is not supposed to rain all weekend. Right now it shows 85 for Friday, 89 for Saturday and 90 degrees on Sunday.

We got here so early because we left home on Monday and went to NRC in Middlebury, IN to get some work done on the motorhome before the race. As usual they were very good at getting on everything and getting us in and out. I can't say enough great things about NRC. If you need a new motorhome, and you want a truck conversion, you couldn't ask for a better built one and with quality workmanship throughout. Jeff Teuton just had a new one built there, and we got to see it before he did! It really looks great even with red couches!!


Well more later!

Welcome to Illinois!

Good luck to all of you.

Yes, the temps and humidity can be brutal there!

Well it is another gorgeous day here at the track. Beautiful, sunny skies. It is only supposed to be about 80 today--just perfect. I actually got to sleep in a little this morning since nothing is going on today until 2 whenever tech begins. There are a few rigs stacked over at the round track, but they haven't begun parking yet. According to the original schedule, they are parking until 11 tonight.

I think Larry and I are going for a walk after breakfast. We are going to Disney World next week with Chris and his family and I am afraid Grandma may woose out on them!

More later.

Well we went for that walk before it got too hot. It is 12:30 and they still have not started parking any rigs yet. Looks like it may be the 2:00 that is on the schedule.

Sorry I haven't given any updates, but we have been visiting tonight and catching up with folks we haven't seen in a while. I took a few pics today that I will post a little later. There are rigs still moving in tonight. Seems to be quite a few folks here. More tomorrow!
