Racecar spelled backwards is….

Stopped by the racetrack a couple weekends back, and bumped into our favorite racing driver. Bit of a surprise to see him, though I suspect it shouldn’t have been. The Porsche folks were having a bit of a soiree at Laguna Seca, and invited Ned to bring along his RSR for the weekend’s activities. Ned is a gearhead of the first order, and a certified Porsche freak, so him being at Rennsport is only natural.

A few shots –

minus the green

 

There’s literally hundreds of shots of some really cool stuff from the day at the track. One morning I might get bored enough that I’ll sort out the best of them and post ’em up.

Sorry, where were we?

Late August, windstorm, right. Knocked out power for a day or 4, and  then I took a bit of a break. Got busy with too many things. We’ll get into all that later. Now I hope to get back to regular programming. So without further ado…

Drove to work today, which is rare, so meandered on the way home. Hit Magnuson park and solved one of the great mysteries of the Seattle. Wanna know who’s tagging just about everything in town?

Snails

It’s the SNAILS!!!! I caught them in the act. The one on the right is looking particularly guilty.
