Amazing photo

This photo is the perfect example of Jan's worst nightmare. She's terrified of the thought of a tornado. I, on the other hand greatly enjoy all things extreme in the weather world.

It's from the New York Times. Caption below.

When the weather turned violent and stormy on Tuesday evening, Lori Mehmen, who lives in the small farming town of Orchard in northeastern Iowa, looked out her front door and saw a funnel cloud bearing down — and evidently had the presence of mind to grab her digital camera and capture this shot before taking cover.

Michigan

Ive been back in Michigan since Tuesday. It seems like we were just
here. Its not my favorite track for a couple of reasons - including
the fact that it takes us almost an hour to drive to the track from
our hotel. Also the fans are a bit "different" here.

Nashville

I'm at the Nationwide race in Nashville. Its the first standalone
nationwide series race of the year and we're breaking in a new
production truck. We're about to start practice on Friday. The photo
is from my position.

This Week

I've spent this week in Dover at the Dover Race. We've had a good week as a crew with just one blip in the system - that we were able to fix in the nick of time.

I did a little Geocaching with my buddy Mark and we got to see the countryside here in Delaware. One of the caches was beside this pretty lake.


They put in a large scale version of the mascot here. This track was the first concrete track in Nascar and is called the Monster Mile. This big monster at the entrance is actually pretty cool. The car in it's hand is actual size.
