Well, considering that next Sunday this time I will be sitting way up those stairs at the Indy 500 race, I think I should finish this account of the 2021 race. We sure had fun, but not as much as in the pre-Covid days. Hopefully this year will be back more to the norm, especially Carb Day on Friday which was not held this year.
MONDAY, MAY 31ST
Leaving day. Quite a few RVs remained at the Legion overnight, but it was mass-moving day on Monday. The Legion itself was completely closed down.
Sue and Paul are old hands at packing things up, much of which was done last night. My main job was to hold the leashes on the dogs. This was made harder by the many little yipping dogs.
We left at 8:30 am. and we left, driving on Georgetown Road out to the interstate.
Closer to the IMS, we could see local groups out doing cleanup on the bigger parking fields. And, there was a whole lot of garbage, and, of course, beer and pop cans. A good money-maker for them.
Next, we saw blocks and blocks of small homes, some of which were fully landscaped and pretty as a pin, but others looking straight of of the slums. The past few days, and especially Sunday, they had friends and regulars parking in their yards.
We hit I-65 and we're headed home after a stop near Lebanon to pump out the black water waste. It is just $10 at the station, but $40 and more if you do it at the Legion.
Good to Have Been Back. --RoadDog
