Sand Drag Weekend!

This last weekend we took a trip to Albany OR for the sand drag event. First we had to cross the Columbia river, such a large river!


Once we crossed the bridge we were in Oregon. I can't believe I got that shot. We were driving about 55 mph. I just love my camera!

The hubby didn't think it so cool to get his pic taken while ready to fall asleep at the wheel after driving for about 5 hours and not getting home from work until 1:30 am that same morning. Poor guy, but anything to go fast!!!

Beautiful field of flowers that made the air outside smell oh so sweet!

Some lucky kids got to play in some bought snow! Wish I could of taken a sled ride down!

This little guy was a little stressed with all the rumbling from the motors. He can't really hear anything with those muffs on, but the rumbles and vibrations got to be a little to much by the afternoon. The second day however he seemed to be doing much better and fell asleep in the trailer while a sand drager rubbled less than 10 feet away. The trailer blocks some of the noise but you can feel all that power.

Grandpa Vince pulling a BIG wheelie with his new motor! Now he wants to build a new car for the new motor. I tell you these boys are never happy and always want more.....LOL Not like us ladies who never want more...ha ha ha Right!
