My Spring so far.....

Hey guys,

I got some flack about not posting to my blog from a friend (Curt) in Arizona. So here I am to fill you in of all the stuff that has been going on. We have been going crazy trying to get things finished up with our new jet dragster. Graphics are going on, Trailer has been painted, new uniforms have been ordered. I also had to get fit for a brand new firesuit. All of this takes so much time. Just making the right decisions.

In the middle of this my buddy from Arizona took time to stop in and help me celebrate my birthday. He gave me what every girl wants for her birthday...jet car parts. Which is pretty nice considering he also races and I am sure he could have saved the parts for a rainy day. We are meeting up for the first time on the dragstrip on August 4th in Kennedale, TX.

This week has been spring break for Sparkplug. We headed out with some friends to the west coast of Florida to Homosassa Springs and Crystal River to see the Manatees. The weather turned cool, but we had a GREAT time. I lost my cell phone in the river, and Sparkplug caught a fish. Those are the highlights.

Today has been a pretty cool day. We had a lunch meeting with the people of Fantasy of Flight. It is almost in Lakeland Florida. We are going to be doing a display there in June and wanted to work out the details. This place is amazing. It is just 30 min. from our house, and we have never taken the time to stop by and look. I couldn't believe it. It is first class all of the way. You need to have at least 3 hours to do this place justice. If you do stop by and visit, make sure you eat there. GREAT onion rings!!!

Miss Ta Fire

Hey guys. I hope everyone had a great time last weekend at Moroso Motorsports Park. We will be back April 22 & 23 to race there again.

Horsepower TV came out to film us. It was really cool.

I had the chance to meet Jessie Harris, the Queen of Diamonds. I have been waiting to meet her for a couple of years. She was everything I was told. We are racing again in May at Kanawha Valley Dragway.

I will check back in soon.
