Out of sight but on my mind

I didn't get to see the Martinsville race yesterday. As Jimmie Johnson was rolling across the finish line, I was in Highlands, North Carolina looking for some mountain folk music. Amazingly, we didn't find any, but we had a good time.

Thankfully, I was up against GetAFreeRide this weekend. I say that because my wife and I joined my partner Dan and his wife for a retreat away at a chalet in the north Georgia mountains. No Internet access there... and I had forgotten to bench Kyle Busch and put Gordon back in the lineup!


Turns out that I got enough points to have beat anyone except BBuck. Better yet, I was up against GetAFreeRide, so I really didn't have that much to worry about. Though, take a look at the finishes for Kyle Petty (10th) and Tony Raines (14th). That ain't too shabby. Had Todd Bodine has another ride like he did last weekend, GetAFreeRide might not have been so free!

Anyway, I'm glad to have the win and glad to see the points tighten up a little more.
