Garage Sales, Drags and Rain

We went to a tailgate sale at the Silver Lake Grange this morning.  I didn't get anything, but Vera found a candy dish she liked.  I ran into another retiree from the Fibre and we visited for a few minutes.  We headed back to Castle Rock to get the mail but noticed a sign for a "Huge Sale" on the Tower Road.  After several "You are almost there" signs we finally got to it.  It was a big disappointment, a couple of card tables of stuff and some junk on the lawn.  We were so far up the Tower Road that we decided to go on to the Spirit Lake Hwy.  It come out right by the Riverdale Raceway so we stopped in to look around.  They have an eighth mile drag strip and there were some neat looking rigs.  The Water Bug was the first one to catch our eye.

Mighty Mouse looked pretty awesome and sounded good also.

 It was a little unusual to meet a dragster driving the other way on the road.

Vera took this one because a friend of ours has his shop name Schap's on the right rear fender.  After we left there we finally made it to the post office and picked up the mail.  On the way home we stopped at a garage sale in North Castle Rock and ran into a lady who had driven all the way out Tower to the Huge Sale also, she was not impressed either.  After lunch I washed the Mitsubishi, Blazer and the motor home.  I had just finished when the rain started, so far we have gotten a tenth of an inch.

This evening I went out and almost got the Sunday modification finished.  I should be ready for a test flight the next time I go flying.  James left Dalton here while he did a video for JAL, Dalton and Vera watched Made in America until James got back, then they went to see IT.
