RE: Nascar Follies
I can't wait to watch this. How will the higher banking affect the cars?
Congrats to the Granddaughter.

To the best of my knowledge, they've never run 3,000 lb stock cars on dirt at Bristol. It's an experiment I would never invest in.

RE: Moderna vaccine (Personal experiences)
It took a few weeks to get the first appointment, but we finally succeeded. THEN, yesterday my wife and I received our first Moderna shot, PLUS an appointment for our second shot. I didn't feel a thing, and still NOT feeling not even any soreness. OTOH my wife is feeling some mild soreness in the area of the shot. We're exuberant.

It's simple,...never admit your mistakes. Being humble is too hard.

RE: Nascar Follies
Again, I came away with a feeling of emptiness. IMO a sure sign of desperation is converting one NASCAR track into a dirt track. What does it mean? Has anyone identified the problem that they are trying to solve?

RE: Nascar Follies
bobh, Thanks for asking. Yes, we're OK. Parked behind the house was the ole Dutch Star with ONAN Quiet Diesel generator, 150 gal diesel tank, 110 gal water tank, etc made it almost a non-event. I was ready with 3 sets of HD extension cords which I ran into the house (did not lose natural gas appliances and water pressure, plus had the 4x4 GMC with a good driver).
The winning driver can't win without the winning car. Most people do not know exactly what that means.

RE: Nascar Follies
We know that there can be NO real racing on the super speedways. So, since we insist on watching, we have no choice but to keep looking for subjects of our complaints. Racers and racefans will never change (in my lifetime). IMO Larson will survive this slip-of-tongue and wait for the next one.

RE: Nascar Follies
Well, like I mentioned last year, Kyle was looking for a new CREWCHIEF. He NEVER forgot how to drive a racecar. Whenever his racecar is properly configured, a winning driver will have a good chance of winning. Of course, the engine also needs to be competitive (horsepowerwise). The race on the superspeedway will be an indicator of horsepower. We'll see.

RE: Giving it up
Yes, be grateful for the good times. I'm personally scared to go at it alone.
Take care, and good luck.

RE: Questions for Quilters
My wife became more and more serious about quilting. This was just one of the reasons we quit fulltiming (in our 40 ft Dutch Star motorhome). AND NOW, she needs a BIGGER brick house (not kidding).

RE: Reminiscing
Luck is random, and I've had my share of good and bad. Yeah, money isn't everything, but I sure wish I had a lot more. I wonder if it would make it easier to give some away?
Next item on my bucket list is: avoid corona virus.

RE: My 2 favorite gifts as a youngster
In 1948, for Christmas, I got my first 'real' fishing rod and reel. I had been fascinated by seeing advertisements of fishing equipment in some of my Dad's magazines. But, the ultimate Christmas present was a 1951 real English racing bike, special-ordered from Sears and Roebuck. Nobody around where I grew up had ever seen one.

RE: My 2 favorite gifts as a youngster
What I recall is that there were many advertisements which had pictures of doctors and nurses wearing face masks. I do NOT recall ANY of us not knowing the purpose of these face masks. My Mom made several cloth masks for us to wear whenever we played doctors and nurses. Toy microscopes were fascinating,...in 1947.

RE: Nascar Follies
Chase Elliot, son of Awesome Bill from Dawsomeville, drove a Chevrolet owned by Rick Hendrick (multimillionaire). Congratulations!
Is this the same outfit that just hired Kyle Larson? And, did a Ford win the regular Championship? IMO things are looking up for next year.

RE: Nascar Follies
In the premier category, the man with the most money has the best chance of winning,.....that would be Roger Penske. He doesn't tell his drivers to race as a team,...he simply expects it.

RE: Nascar Follies
NASCAR knows how to keep going, AND will keep doing it. Also, the fact that Kyle Busch was driving the winning car tells me that his crewchief is applying for a new job.

RE: Winnebago buys Newmar
I gave up a Winnebago Vectra/F-53, and special ordered a Dutch Star/Spartan. (The F-53 chassis was a disappointment) And, got cheated out of the all-fiberglass roof that I ordered on my Dutch Star. I would welcome a Country Coach made by Winnebago.
