The track is at the beach, hence the palm trees in the background. I took a video of each of the guys racing around the track but they decided it looked way too slow to show anyone. While speeding around the track, each of them thought they were surely breaking track records for speed. I guess the sensation of actually being in the car seems a lot faster than it appears from the spectator point of view. Here's a shot of Chris in the red car going around the track.
They all agreed it was a fun time and we capped it off with a trip to an Irish pub- Dargan's Pub- on Main Street in Ventura for lunch and a few brews and an exchange of war stories about their racing adventure. Liz and I insisted on a nice lunch to reward us for sitting in those dirty bleachers!

Too funny! My guys would be right there with them! Is the new puter chair making things easier for you? Hope so! Hugz!
ReplyDeleteHi Darylynn;
ReplyDeleteJust finished reading your last 5 posts as I have been away from the pc for awhile because of back and leg pain. I pray the microdiscectomy surgery for your herniated disc will be 100% and you'll be fine after the surgery.
The photos of the boys (Ryan & Jacob) are adorable they are getting so big. Loved the photos of the (Big) boys in their racing outfits. Looks like they had a great day. :-} Have a lovely day ahead. Hugs
Hi Darylynn,
ReplyDeleteI know the pub very well you and I think at lunch there at least once? I know I had lunch there with Debbie when I use to go to Ventura a lot to visit Parts Unknown to get my tops :) Kind of funny after the guys saw the video they decided they were driving to slow ;) Hope you have a wonderful day. Hugs, Dru
Racing is always dirty no matter what kind it is. I have learned that the hard way. Glad they had fun! And you guys got a nice lunch ;-) HUGS
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun day. Have a nice week. ((BIG HUGS))!!
ReplyDeleteHi Darylynn that sounds like a nice day, how to did your white blouse fair on that day trip? The photos are great everyone (The Guys) look very happy there. Hope you're feeling well today. Hugs
ReplyDeleteSounds like a winning weekend. Hope the lunch was good.
ReplyDeleteThe weather has been beautiful. How is your back doing?
Take care, Hugs
That sounds like fun! I went to a NASCAR race once with a white t-shirt on and it ended up with black all over it from the tire rubber. It was a good time though!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great day in spite of the dust and dirt. Glad to hear you got a nice lunch out of it!
ReplyDeleteDargan's looks so nice and made me hungry.
I am home from rehab and wrote a bit about it all on my blog.
I read about your surgery and its wise of you to take care of it quickly and I hope that will end it for you. It is no fun being in pain.It disrupts the quality of your life.
Hugs
Hi Darylynn! The race track looks like a lot of fun. Sorry about the dirt though. I wouldn't have been a happy camper if I were wearing white. lol At least you got a nice lunch out of the deal.
ReplyDeleteThat chair in the below post cracks me up. lol Hope you have a great hump day. Hugs
