From the Starter's Stand: It's 2009!

Thursday, January 8, 2009

Can you believe it is already 2009??!?  Where did last year go??

Happy New Year to everyone and I hope that this year is a very prosperous one for each and everyone of you!

The countdown to the 2009 race season is on!  I can't wait to get back to the race track and get the new season rolling.  I spent the break and the holidays here in Las Vegas with my family and had a great time.  My parents came in from Texas and spent a week with me, my sister and her family.  I had some time off from my regular job, so it was nice to recharge my batteries to get ready for the new year.  I went to see the show "Love" at the Mirage and it was awesome!!  A show that I highly recommend for anyone to see...

I think everyone will agree with me that this was the coldest December I can remember since I moved to Las Vegas in 1999.  I mean, come on, SNOW IN LAS VEGAS??!!!???  I had family calling from Texas asking if we were okay...I said, 'yes, it is just snow...no big deal.'  But I will tell you that I got into a snowball fight or two...that was a blast!!

I hope that the holiday season was great to everyone!  Just a few short weeks away, race season will be underway.  I am really excited about the new season and I hope to see each and everyone of you out at the track...whether it is the Bullring, The Strip, the superspeedway or even the Dirt Track during Cup Weekend.

Talk to you soon and see you at the races!!
