I'm glad we did -- the weather was perfect and we got to see Jim Nabors sing the "Back Home Again In Indiana" song for the last time at the race.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065930972046877154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-8413736680487759662016-02-23T18:25:57.185-10:002016-02-23T18:25:57.185-10:00Florida is great -- though the area where my husba...Florida is great -- though the area where my husband is from is nothing like what most people visualize when they think of Florida. His part of the state is a rural, backwoods-y place where people fish, hunt, drive big trucks and have Southern accents. And eat copious amounts of fried okra -- yum (oh -- fried EVERYTHING, my husband says!). There are huge oak trees hanging with Spanish moss everywhere and orange groves and salt water marshes. It's not exactly Miami or Disneyland, but I like it! :)Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065930972046877154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-60344739947361081912016-02-22T06:47:22.545-10:002016-02-22T06:47:22.545-10:00You got to go to the Daytona 500!!

The Indy Car series used to come to Portland, OR so I grew going to the races. Sadly, the IRL doesn't go through Oregon anymore!Lori Breehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10703713875411084322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973789943830816374.post-22330401571048874292016-02-22T06:39:22.241-10:002016-02-22T06:39:22.241-10:00It sounds like you are having a great time in Flor...It sounds like you are having a great time in Florida, Lindsay!
