No fear Tom taking the top slot! then with a short break during the break I took time to get a couple of shots of Brothers with Termite! then it was on to the games again! Jimmy got the slow races again but I didn't get a chance at him Lee beat me out early. Charay and I got the Winnie bite trophy though! Capt Abate got the Trophy for the first ever Rooster race! you will have to look at the pic to see who won the different classes of races and the rest of the games!  later on the Elizabeth Turner and Slow Vein  entertained the crowd! 
I had some fun shooing the Elizabeth, just messing around! Im surprised she didn't have me thrown off the stage for bugging her!  I conned a few of the Girls into posing with Termite to get him in trouble at home! haha then it was on to the stage show as usual it was fun and Kim got brave! Twisted had fun marking on the girls! I don't know what time I finally got to bed it was late and I did have to stand out side a tent to insure some was ok there were some funny noises coming from it! you know who you are because I teased you in the morning about it! some where in the night I woke up to the sound of rain on my tent!  I rolled back over and went back to sleep! I knew I was supposed to be in Macalister by 1pm and wanted to get some sleep! I woke up again about 7:30 and it was still raining! I got up and found a cup of coffee! while drinking it it quit raining so I went back and started packing! I got every thing packed and on the bike except the tent when it started raining again!

 I slipped into Slam Dawgs tent long enough to put my wet gear on and tease someone about the noises from there tent! they told me they did not but later checked and noticed her undies were on wrong!  my my! after I got fully dressed I tore down my tent just as I got the rain fly off the rain got much harder! by the time I got it rolled up I had about a gallon of water in it! I strapped it down and crawled on the bike and began the slip and slide out of the campground! I had to stand up and spin the tire and push the bike at the same time to get it moving! i guess it rained enough over night to make the ground real soft! my back tire was sunk down it the mud past the rim! when I got to the road I stopped long enough to put my gloves on and then headed out! that 1/4 mile to the main road was interesting to say the least! at one point I had feet on the pegs and under water to just before the top of my boots! I made it safe to the pavement and headed east toward home! it was raining hard enough I could barely not to mention my goggles kept fogging up! about Seiling I finally rode out of the rain! from there it was a spit now and then! I made it to the house about 12:15! even in a hurry there wasn't enough time to make the meeting in Macalister! I just rolled the bike into the garage and decided I would find out what happened later!  I didn't intend for this to be about Rooster but with all the lives he touched including mine it just couldn't be helped!
