I would estimate there were more than 5 times as many campers at this track than there were in Charlotte last week. One reason for this is there aren't many hotels in the immediate area, while there are plentiful hotels near the Charlotte racetrack, plus the much larger population in the Charlotte metro area. Just my opinion.
Notice the new $700 mirror on the left that caused us a three day delay in leaving the cabin. This is the mirror that the tree jumped out and broke the arm and we had to order one from Tiffin and have it FEDEXed to the cabin. It arrived Friday and SIL Jack helped me install it on the motorhome. It messed up our travel plans, but when you are in a RV you have to roll with the punches and obstacles put before you when you are on the road. The favorite saying of RVers is that travel plans are written in jello, and this was one case of that being true.
As I mentioned in the blog yesterday we had to dry camp the first night and were able to snag a full hookup campsite for the remainder of our stay here. That became more important as they are calling for some real cold temps the next 2-3 nights. Nothing freezing, but down in the low 30s. I hope they are wrong, but if not the furnace, electric heaters and heat pumps on the roof will keep us nice and toasty warm. Bring it on.
