Cars, cars, cars

It was a great weekend for cars. On Saturday morning, Daddy and I washed both of the cars and Windexed all the windows of the cars as well. We hadn't washed cars in a long time, so this was really fun. Later that day, we had a bunch of toy car races around the house including through the office, which has treacherous bumps that trip up many of the cars.

On Sunday, it was more cars stuff. I was looking forward to seeing the Nascar race (which was held in Sonoma). While we didn't go in person, we did watch on TV. It was a very exciting race at the end. I was rooting for the Shell car (driven by Kevin Harvick). He got passed by the Texaco car with about 11 laps to go. The announcers indicated that the Texaco car would have to stop for gas sometime in the last lap. Both cars drove and drove and, even in the end, the Texaco car had just enough gas to finish the race. The Shell car finished second, which was still very good.

Following this, Daddy and I had "gravity races" using the Hot Wheels orange track. Daddy organized a kind of tournament with cars competing in single elimination rounds. We each used our "announcer voices" to describe the action---this drove Mommy nuts. In the end, the Little Red Roadster managed to win the championship.

I love cars.
