Plano Balloon Festival
The weather is very condusive to two things tomorrow morning...driving your Cobra and flying hot air balloons. Do you know how to get to the intersection of Parker Rd. and Los Rios in Plano? Our el Presidente, John S. says this is a great place to watch the balloons fire up, up, and away. I'm taking my camera, both still and video, a big cup of coffee, a jacket, my Coupe, and will be getting preferred street parking (maybe illegal), around 6:15am.
We're just back from Road America and the Texas Heat is OVER! It's time to get back in your Cobra and have some fun. John S. & I will be there and not be SQUARE...how about you?
BTW, here's a little video to give you an idea of how much fun road racing really is...it's just 2 laps on the 4.048 mile Road America Circuit, but it illustrates the excitement of wheel to wheel racing.
We hope to see you early birds manana!

I have always admired Larry's confidence behind the wheel, and now in his confidence in the weather. I am likewise "in," making a last minute call on local rain. As he said, north side of Parker on Los Rios. Looking forward to seeing all brave souls.
Frankly, I can't believe we are sweating out the rain. Don't get me wrong now; I am happy to have it and happy to hear some folks south of Austin got their first real measurable amounts of rain perhaps for only a second time in over a year. NE George Bush corridor forecast calls for showers to end by 1:00am, but I have always been optimistic regarding the chance of rain.
