Okay Folks it`s almost time to start loading up the Van for our semi annual Trek to the Track..LOL
New Hampshire International Speedway in Loudon NH is where we are headed next weekend.
Every September my husband Donald and I, along with our 2 sons 2 Daughters In Law 4 grandchildren and 4 friends head for a fun filled weekend in Loudon NH for the Nascar Race held there .
The planning starts MONTHS before the race as we need to get our timeshare space lined up before all the best spots are taken.
Almost every Hotel, Motel, Bed and Breakfast and even the Campgrounds start to fill up as early as March for the September race.
And if you have a Camper or RV you can even stay right on the grounds of the race track for the weekend BUT you have to get there as early as 3am on the Friday before the race or you may not get a spot there either..
We usually stay at a Beautiful Resort called Cold Springs which is in the town of Ashland about 30 miles from the track.
This year though I didn`t get my request in on time for there, so we are staying at Steele Hill Resorts in Sanborton NH about 20 miles North of the track.
So we are just about set to go.
The suitcases are packed and waiting to be loaded in the Van.
Went Grocery shopping today to get all the essentials we`ll need for the weekend for Grilling and Cookouts including Breakfast at the track at 7 am the morning of the race.. This is such a fun thing. 2 camp stoves going at
the same time frying bacon, sausage, scrapple, homefries, and eggs for 10 people :>)The Easy Up Canopy, the folding chairs, the campstove, the Container I call my
"traveling kitchen" and all the rest of our racing gear ( scanners, coolers, binoculars etc) are all placed in a common spot in the garage just waiting to be loaded.
Come Thursday morning we will be " on the road again" for another Great Weekend.
Do I Love Racing ??
What do you think ??
