Spring break 09

This past spring break Dirtdude and I decided to make the trip to Mooresville North Carolina. I really do not know what possesed us to do this. Neither of us knew what was out there or what we would do to fill our time. However, I would say that Dirtdue and I had more of a problem just sitting down and taking a breath. We decided to go out there and stay with Cody Hood, who was more than a host to us. Cody is a great guy and a good racer. He's out there going to Nascar Technical School.

Anyways, Dirtdude and I had no idea what we were going to do. We planed on driving around and "looking" at all the race shops and just looking around Charlotte. Little did we know it would be the busiest week of our lives!! For the better of course. When we got there and were hanging out with cody, we discovered that we could actually GO INTO the race shops and check things out. So we could literally walk into Tony Stewarts, Jimmy Johnsons, and ALL of your favorite nascar heros'! How friggin' cool. Dirtdude and I were absoultly mezmorized at the money, time, and cleanliness of the shops!

This is me at Hendrick(sp)..wowza..AWESOME!

Not only did we get to go inside and visit all the race shops and check things out and go from one huge building to the next but we also went to Lowe's motorspeedway and got to see some of practice. They go SOOO FAST

Ohh I love this guy!!

Such a cool place!

My favorite race shop was RCR. They had all of Dale Earnhardts cars and had kept them all.. Pretty amazing!

Dirtdude and I had an absolute friggin blast looking at all these race shops...I think we even shed a few tears when we went to DEI.

We truly did have an amazing time looking at all of these shops. Someday, Dirtdude and I will retrun. I don't know when...but it was such a special trip for us that we will return.

Another fun part of the trip was going to visit my uncle and aunt (who were more than stellar to us) and then on see UNC, NC State, and Duke. We just went ahead and let ourselves check it out.

Both places were amazing!!

Then later that night...

NBA game in Charlotte.

THEN...

on to Gatlinburg!

I would say its safe to say that Dirtdude and I had one of the most fun and outgoing spring breaks ever. I would not change the amazing week that Dirtdude and I had!

My absolute favorite part of the trip was just Dirtdude and I in the car...traveling down the road... enjoying each other.
