Going to Indy!!!

I am going to Indy...the Indy 500 this weekend. I am going with my dad, brothers, and nephew. The 5 of us will get to enjoy the race for the second year in a row. I am not really a race fan, but I really enjoyed going last year. The power of the cars is something you have to see in person. The television does not do it justice as to how fast the cars are going. I am looking forward to going. The weather is supposed to be beautiful. Last year the race was shortened due to rain, but it looks good thus far. I will take some pictures and post them next week. It will be a great bonding time for the Thrift men.

P.S. As a side note there will be a Thrift moving to Texas soon...my younger brother Trevor looks like he will be moving to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area pretty soon. I would expect that he will represent us Yankees well down there...and that Texans will treat him well. Y'all can be a little sensitive when Yankees come to town...so be nice...Clint!!!

Have a great day! That sounds like a great bonding experience for a bunch of guys. I wish Trevor was coming to Abilene. I'd love to meet him. Tell him if he needs a weekend off to head over this way and your old room will be waiting for him. Really. I mean it. Any brother of yours is a brother of ours.

What is with the Michgan-Texas connection thing? If anybody ever needs to stop somewhere in the middle like Missouri, please let us know?
