Racing

Yesterday was the Indy 500.

My mom sent me this email last night:

Jes,

Today is the Indianapolis 500. I can remember growing up Grandpa listening to the race on the radio, sometimes sitting out in our little side yard. The Lily of the Valley that my mom planted would be blooming. When the Indy pre race show came on today I thought we could remember Grandpa & how much he enjoyed the race at the Brickyard, with Lukey in his racing suit with his car.

Love,

Mom

My mom's Lily of the Valley is in bloom in her side yard & I even have a little bouquet of it in my kitchen. Mom, I do think that Grandpa would have loved Luke's racing suit & car. I also think he would have Luke watching his "driving lessons" at brickyard, like Beckie and I did :)

I found some old racing pictures of my Grandpa I thought I would post too. I always loved this one when I was a kid. Is there a racing prize better than your own pig?
