andretti indoor karting.

[Barry Donovan]

just had to try it.
andretti karting on orlando


We got a briefing on safety, helmets..
I was the last one assigned, and laughed to see it was #3.


I was dead last..in fact, my position had to wait for seeming ever just get out on the track.
I lapped some people...came out on top.

I did it for dale.

first time ever, and got first place, made best times of the day list.
my only slow down was other people.

that torres guy, he knew to follow my lead.

just like racing...keep the fast path moving.


crash in turn 3.. this is my 2 nephews.

these were silly fast in the adult side.
it brought me back to being targetted to drive years ago.

I could easily work my way into some top ten league.. this was my first try ever.

if you ever get a chance.. just do it.

we then went and bowled for an hour or so.
I lobbed the 14 pound ball like a brick.. nailed some strikes and spares.
it has been almost 30 years for me and bowling.

it was uplifting for me. Without challenge, we'll never know ourselves.

I had no clue I was x-large in the balls category... retarded pun intended.

I may be stuck for some hours here..got snow for bangor tonight and tomorrow.

fine by me.
the big cold is retreating for my return...
lagrange should be more normal.

I have a niece and her family that moved down here, they have no regrets.
I am making an effort before summer sets in.

I have been called the mediterranean one out of my weird large family..
this place adds to feeling alive.

in fact I am 10 shades darker in about a week.
..been that way since I was small boy.

The weirdest thing is my left lung opening more.
I do not doubt my own memories for being the yelling longest marching guide in basic decades ago.. same thing happened to me there.
