Corn & Autocross Results

The summer corn crop has come in. Michigan has the best sweet corn I've ever tasted. A family up the street grows the corn and sells in front of their house. It is the Peaches & Cream variety and so sweet!!!

The autocross went well, I had fun driving my car fast--at least it seems fast when you have to drive around those cones. Here's a photo of my car. It's a 2004 Mercedes C230 Kompressor--a great road car, and quick, too. Another photo of grid with dh's car. Results.

Packing up, I got my ring finger on my right hand squished between the trailer tongue and jack--hurt like crazy. I spent about 10 minutes with my hand in the cooler, then filled a bottle with ice and sat in the car. Monday, it hurt so much, I left work early. My sup wanted me to see a dr. so I went ahead. It's not broken and they didn't do anything for it--just keep it iced. That was a waste of medical resources--they even did an xray. It doesn't look as bad today, but the nail is black and it's still sore and a little swollen. Typing is painful.

Also, my phone spent a couple of extra days at the Tawas Bay Big Boy. I left it there when we had lunch on Sunday. I finally realized it wasn't anywhere at home on Wed. I called them and they put it in the mail--amazingly, it arrived home in Thursday's mail.

More exciting stuff coming up! Stay in touch.
