Have fun with the move. You know we all wish we could be there to help.

I know you would. But it will be much more fun to be here a month after the move is completed.

Yes, she is HWFMR. The committee that may or may not exist may or may not have been involved with her. (If anyone doubts that, remember -- Bull may or may not be chairman of the Committee that may or may not exist, and he shot the video. Coincidence? I think not...)
OMG. That is going to be one lucky lady. Think I'll install a 3 point belt system in my passenger seat and pray she has the same in her driver's.

Bull.

You have a photographic gift. Exceptionally impressive telephoto skills. Got more?

Being the defender of truth and honesty that I am here, I must admit that I did not shoot the video. I will further admit that when presented with such circumstances, I cannot bring myself to waste the time grabbing a camera. Hell, I can watch it live and play it back anytime I want!

She IS our newest HWFMR member, accomplished by a rather quick membership committee "meeting" and the proper application of a HWFMR sticker, which wouldn't be appropriate to show in public!

Mike,

Congrats...we just finished an extensive remodel on a vacation home (my wife and I are still married...barely) and will start doing the lake house right after labor day weekend.

So...I may be a single man by the time we get to Daytona!!

When's your next race? I'm set for VIR, Road America and Daytona.

Rick

And no, it's not Bull's Advanced Course in Making Marriage Work, or VR's School of Automatic Weapons

Like Bonnie, we move in three weeks.

Anyhow, I miss you guys, just wanted to say hey, and see if I missed anything important. (Occasionally there is something important going on with HWFMR)

Is Doc Pain still in PCOC?

Is Bonnie still a virgin?

Wait! how about the Arch Nemesis kicking *** at Mid-O and The Glen? And Chris Inglot getting a couple of thirds?

And Congrats on your projects.

I'm doing Road America, and hopefully Daytona, providing there are no more Change Orders

Hey Dan

How are ya?

We're at 6500 ft, so we're basically flatlanders compared to you.

Pretty nice in the summer out here in t-town, especially compared to the current weather in S. Florida. But as a sea level flatlander, I'm gasping for air climbing these mountain trails!

Yep, but once you do get used to it, when you get down to sea level, you have the strength of 3 men. Plus you have three times the tolerance for alcohol

enjoy your stay, Dan. T is one lovely valley.
