WELL IT'S THE FIRST OF MAY


Well today is the 1st day of May and before you no it summer will be here and school will be out again. It seems like this school year has flown by for some reason. I got fitted for my tux yesterday and it appear that some high school had prom this weekend, I have never seen so many teenagers bringing back tuxes at one time. The Nextel Cup race yesterday was washed out and will run taday at noon, it will be a short week for all the race teams because this weeks race in Richmond is saturday night. Most of the teams are testing at Charlotte this week also so it will be a short but a very busy week also. The Colonials will be back in action at 4:30pm tuesday at Shepherd Stadium when the Dinwiddie Generals come to town. I Have now decided to root for the Carolina Hurricanes for the rest of the Stanley Cup playoffs since the Rangers are out. I have posted an old photo of Al and Keith with a clown, I don't know where this photo was taken at. MICKEY

A train. The train left Richmond (from what is now the Science museum) and travel to Ashand and back. I believe it was called the snowball express because on the retun back to Richmond, Santa Claus visited each car.

I rode the Santa train, too! I like how Al is behind Keith! I'm skeptical of clowns, too. (Not the clowns on the blog, though!)
