Hello all,

Good evening from Dallas Texas! Today was a great day to travel. This morning Jennifer and I took the kids to Perkins for breakfast. From there we went and enrolled Alexandria in Oak Wood Manor. After getting her enrolled, it was time to get to KCI and get on our flight to Dallas.

When we landed, Raph and Stephanie Lavin picked us up at Dallas Love Field. We were off to the DFW Hilton to get settled in before opening ceremonies. While the girls were off learning about the new products offered by BeautiControl, Raph and I went to SpeedZone for some fun. First we took 3 trips down the drag strip at speeds over 60 mph in 100 yards. That was a blast! YOU GUYS HAVE TO TRY IT. After the drag strip, we went to the slick track for five minutes of crash and spin outs with the locals. I think I held my own.

The last ride was a two mile trip around the Grand Prix track. The cars go over 60 mph over a road track. You really had to work the wheel and the brake and gas to get around the course in good time. I got into the car just fine, but I had difficulty getting out of the car. I had difficulty getting my knees out. I thought I was going to need assistance to get out. Luckily I pushed out of it.

On our way out of the park, a young men and woman asked Raph and I if we wanted to have their pass cards. It was great! We each took six more rides on the dragster. My best time was 3.641 seconds.

It was a great night!
