Are we there yet?

Got up this morning at my usual time and wrapped up my last minute packing. Played some video games to kill the time till Bernie showed up. Hit the road and headed north. First stop was for a bathroom break in Franklin, TN at Best Buy. Mmmmm... big tv's GOOD! Next was Macaroni Grill. Followed a cute waitress that was coming into work then was pleasantly surprised when it turned out she was going to be our waitress. Had a sumptuous meal then hit the road again. Finally got into Indy and checked into the hotel then headed back out again to swing by the speedway and drop by the BMW corral to make sure all our arrangements are in place - hospitality stuff and the all-important car placard that will permit us to pass through the police barriers on raceday. The BMW folks were busy setting things up for Friday so we made our way back towards the hotel. Dropped in at Red Lobter for another delicious meal. I'm back at the hotel now and getting ready to crash. Going to try getting up early in the AM to make it to the first F1 practice.

A BIG thanks to Kyle for loaning me some video equipment. Thanks buddy.
