Father's Day Racing

We had taken the 'rents out on Saturday because we were going to be at Thunderhill on Sunday for a race day. It was Chris' first race with the new, larger engine. The engine performed well, it was the rest of the car that wasn't ready for it's go-go gadget power which caused him to go airborne sideways.
We only stayed through the first of two races, but we got a lot of track time in relatively problem free.

Today I took the day off of work and went with Chris up to Almanor to work on a job site. We stopped in Chester and had breakfast and then went up and did his work. Here's the view from the site.

After we finished working, we drove to a National Park camping site where they had walking trails.
Chris was climbing all over the fallen logs and ended up with cuts to his hands and legs. See, nature is dangerous! We should stay inside where it's safe!

Alright, it's dinner time. I'm off to try a new Rachael Ray recipe (shrimp and soy chorizo over mashed potatoes). Wish me luck!
