This weekend, it's 'all MG'. Saturday is an all MG car show event, biggest in the state, with a minimum of 200 and then Sunday is a vintage car race which, just happens to be, the focus national event for the MG Vintage Racers group. Both events are in the Grand Rapids area. The weekend weather is forecasted at high of 70s and dry - - can it get any better; I don't think so. 
Beats Zumba.

Says you. Sounds like a great car weekend, Dave. I do enjoy car weekends, myself.

Whenever I spend time in GR, I think of this video: Too Cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPjjZCO67WI

Looks like I'll be preparing for a cane. It's been a couple years so it's time to make sure everything is in place in case we have to button up for it.
I'm checking my list.

PS Hopefully it will go to the South but a lot of forecast programs have it running right up the East Coast.

Another busy weekend. Even though I hate to see the end of the official summer I'm looking forward to a three day weekend. So much needs to be done. Busy, busy it seems!
This weekend, we are on kid duty on Saturday. Sunday afternoon is Ryan's 6th birthday party. In the evening he will be sleeping over (daughter in law and granddaughter have plans, son is working)and I'm having a little gathering for him with my Mom (she can't make the birthday party) along with my sister and brother in law.
So it's a kid weekend with some grown up time in between.
Where did the summer go????????

Not the weekend but I'm taking a comp day tomorrow. Software upgrades can be a real pain in the database.
Rob and I are taking the NSX over to New Orleans to the recently opened N.O. Motorsports Park where Rob will check off one of his bucket list items. (His words, not mine. He's starting young.) He'll do a few laps in an Ferrari 458 Italia with Exotic Driving Experience.
I might do a few laps in their Porsche "997 S" if it isn't booked. Or I might do a ride-along with one of the pro drivers. Be a good opportunity to get the old urinary system flushed out.
The 1.8 mile north track where the event will be run is a pretty open loop that includes a 3000' straight and some "ultra-high-speed sweepers". Wonder how much the 458 can put on the speedo in that distance.
