Between torrential down pours today we managed to take the kids to the local stop of the traveling carnival. As per tradition, the carnie attracted the very best of the local redneck population. I think it attracts people from miles and miles away. Well, the kids enjoyed a few of the little rides, and I enjoyed watching local skater kids flip the hair out of thier faces every 3 seconds, and adjust the oh-so-tight jeans that they must have borrowed from thier younger sisters. Are the terrible fashions of the 80s making a comeback amongst the teens? I felt like I was in a Guns-N-Roses music video with all the bandanas and pegged jeans.


The kids rockin' the moto ride
There is comfort in knowing that there is a difference in carnivals
Moments later the rains came down hard, we made it to the car just in time
'Nuff said. Eminem Gits-R-Done!

Tomorrow I will be rockin' the Deer Valley ICUP race. Hopefully the weather clears up. There is a nasty lighting storm going on outside right now. Word on the street is that the DV trails are in excellent condition after the rain today. Guess I'll know for sure in the morning.

I wonder if this storm is slamming the folks out at Steamboat?
