If I didn't have to go very often I would probably not mind either, though it does sound like it was a bit nippy to be comfortable.Dieverdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13433795012323850829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601830939477483014.post-32408473626785446452013-03-07T13:49:21.747-06:002013-03-07T13:49:21.747-06:00HaHa!

I got sunburned,and was miserable all day.He considered himself very lucky that I ever agreed to a 2nd date. When we lived in Europe we went to several F-1 races, mainly because he wanted to. Now that we have this world class race track right in our back yard, we want to take advantage of it. He still likes it more than I do, but I like it well enough to go with him. Like I said, a few times a year!

I'm not a racing fan and thank goodness neither is HB.

There is downtime between races, and I do wander off to walk around and visit with people, or just sit somewhere and people watch. I always carry a small sketchbook or something to read as well. I do like seeing how much Hubby enjoys it and enjoys having me there with him. Now, if it were every week-end...that's a different story. At most, I will go 3-4 times a year, and that will be enough for me.

I can show you the photos of the cars, but the Hubster will have to explain all the different classes of cars that will be racing here. I keep forgetting, it has been a long time since I followed racing, I need to re-learn all this stuff. If you click the link in the previous post for F-1, you can see a little video of them running.
