Happy Valentines Day everyone! We celebrated valentines day this morning with Hazelnut coffee and whipped cream! We took a short walk around the campground (really to scope out the best way to exit). As you can see, there were lots of trees…pretty, but rv’s don’t normally like low-hanging trees.
We headed to Daytona, which is only about 80 miles away. It was great to tr
avel through another tunnel, and see the track on the other side. 
We are parked in the infield right by Lake Lloyd on the backstretch. What a great view! 
Some friends we met here 4 years ago stopped by to say hello…we see them once a year, here at the track. They are a fun bunch.
We had to pick up credentials which allow pit and garage access (thank you to Tom—it sure makes our track experience unforgettable).
And, we were able to sneak in a quick visit with Tom...he was hard at work…getting ready for practice. It is always fun to go through the garages and see the activity. There is so much going on to prepare the cars; everyone has a job to do. There is a purpose and routine for everything.
We watched the cars leave for the first practice….they leave their garage one by one…led by last years’ champion, followed by the cars in the order they finished the season. It is very exciting to be right there, and quite a show to watch. Jim was able to capture a video of the cars pulling out.
And, here is the garage after the cars were gone.... We're looking forward to more action tomorrow!
