4th of July at the Auto Club Speedway

It was hot, like the kind of hot where your skin itches from the sweat. I only wish I had remembered to bring deoderant because I could have used a touch-up.
We went to the speedway with mom and Jim. It was a fair-like atmosphere with lots of fun stuff for the kids to do, mixed in with over-priced food and a lack of shade. I might mention that since it was at a raceway there were a lot of 'race folks' there...Travis mentioned that he felt like he needed to knock out a few of his teeth to fit in. He was just mostly kidding.
There was a free Taylor Hicks concert, which was cool because we really like him. Faith enjoyed dancing at his concert. The firework show at night was really neat. They gave out 3D glasses to watch the fireworks with, too.
