The Willie Nelson Anniversary

Life sure is full of its ups and downs. While we try our best to make our plans and anticipate the changes we see coming our way, the truth is, we just don’t know where and when most of those ups and downs are going to happen. This past week was one of those times. Thankfully, it was one of the “ups”.
My wife’s family is from Hill County, Texas. It’s rough, hard-scrabble central Texas country that isn’t known for much more that producing cotton and a few steers. There is one other thing any proud Hill County resident can claim though, Willie Nelson was born and raised in Abbott, Texas, smack dab in the middle of Hill County.
Well, it turns out that my lovely wife and I were about to celebrate our 25th Anniversary and I was in dire need of the right gift when I heard that Willie was coming to play The Center, in Evansville. So, I got us some decent seats. I had been following Willie Nelson as a fanon Facebook after buying the tickets, all the while keeping them a secret from my wife when Iwas struck with one of my dumb ideas. I wrote a short and sweet email to Willie’s fan site and asked if there was any way for this Hill County Girl to meet Willie on her 25th Anniversary. I figured it was worth a shot, right?
Well, I didn’t hear anything back and really sort of forgot about it. Then, a few hours before the show I got a call, one of those unanticipated “ups”, from one of Willie’s folks with a special surprise. Willie honored his former Hill County neighbor with backstage passes to the show.
I doubt I need to go into how much she enjoyed seeing one of her lifelong Texas heroes play from just a few feet away. We both sang and clapped our hands and had the time of our lives. It was surely a once-in-a-lifetime night and I’m sure we’ll talk about it until we’re both old and gray. What a wonderful, wonderful gift. Thanks Willie.

At Fastlane Raceway, Andy says’ Welcome Back to the Sixties”

Slot car racing at its best.
We are midway through the Grand National Winter season at FastLane Raceways in the Washington Square Mall. The Grand National Class is run on Thursday night starting at 6:30 PM. The race consists of each racer running a three minute heat in each of eight lanes. The main feature of this class is that there is a limit on how fast a lap can be run. If the racer goes below that (Breakout) his lap doesn’t count. The Breakout allows novice racers to compete on a more level field with the more experienced racers.
At first glance these cars look to be just toys, but when the green light comes on, IT IS ALL OUT RACING. And when compared to the cost of other types of racing they are far less expensive. And when there is a spectacular crash no one gets hurt and there is not much damage done to the cars.
The points lead has been going back and forth between Rick H. and Les B. for several weeks now. Many of the heats have seen the lead switch back and forth between these two racers, and often the outcome is decided within inches.Even with the racing as close as it is, the racers joke with each other when they have lost a lap from a breakout or a track call that gave someone else the lead.
The season will end on March 25 and the racing will continue to be a close contest between these two drivers. As to who will come out as this Season Champ, Come out and see and enjoy for yourself!
