Hark! it let me post!

Good Saturday Morning,
Its 6:35am and I just said good-bye to Sam, Kam and Kieffer... they are headed to Glen Helen Raceway in San Bernardino, Ca... [sounds like San Brrr-na-dino]
 
[Geography lesson -San Bernardino County is the largest county in the contiguous United States by area, containing more land than each of nine states. The County is larger in area than the states of Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Delaware combined. ] 
 
Did you know that? See you learn something new everyday! We actually live on the border of S.B. County and Riverside County... When I drive to the High Desert house I cross the line...
 
Oh! I almost forgot... we had rain yesterday for 3 minutes! A thunderstorm came up and then poof was gone!
Send rain please!
 
Well,... I better get in the shower and then wake up Grampa... then we will drive out to Glen Helen and watch Kieffer race in the Nervous Class [Novice] we call it the Nervous Class because you have a bunch of kids with a wide range of skills in that class ... you have the beginners, who are now Novice's... and you have the sandbagging Intermediates that don't want to bump up a class, and the rest inbetween!  Kieffer should be fine he took a 6th last weekend and it was his first time in Novice at the REM track at Glen Helen... pretty good... Kameron is practicing only [broken knuckle wakeboarding 3 weeks ago]
 
I dont think I told you but my camera broke at the Lake but the good news is I just got it back from Canon andits fixed woo hoo...all nice and clean too! I used it so much in the past 3 years, I rubbed off the serial number! So they gave me a new one ;) A new serial number not a new camera... I WISH!
 
I have one Grampa story for you... Yesterday, I was going through a stack of cards with him [a deck of cards for playing poker] Grandpa used to play so many cards in the service he knows all the tricks... anyway we have a box of them... all jumbled up... so we were going through the box to make a full deck... Finally, when we were done I said... "OK... now your playing with a full deck!" and I smiled teasing him...
he smiled back "and lets keep it that way!" Everyone laughed... 
 
Well that's all folks
 
you'all come back now hear!
