The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

Back to Indy-- Part 15: Practice Makes Perfect, Walking to Speedway's Main Street

MAY 29, 2021

It was more than a bit cool this morning.  Definitely sweatshirt and jacket weather.  However, as the hours went by, the sun came out and things were warming up a little.  I could take the jacket off now.

Always, the day before the race the track runs through its PA system practice and practices everything that will be said of sung before the race.  A dress rehearsal if you will.

(I forgot to, mention that the man I had talked with earlier today whose father was one of the three survivors of the HMS Hood, said that this was probably going to be his last year coming to the race.

Now hearing the "Star-Spangled Banner" and F-16s flew over.  They'll be doing the traditional flyover tomorrow.

Normally, we go across the street from the Legion to Legends Day on Saturday, but they weren't having it this year because of you-know-what.

After lunch we started walking and walking and walking over to Speedway's Main Street, always a fun place to go and high on our itinerary each year.  On the way over, we saw a guy selling "F--- Biden" t-shirts.  Sue and Paul are of the very liberal nature and they definitely didn't much care about that.  I am not so liberal, but had no use for anything like that.  It is too bad this country is becoming so opposed to each other.
