“Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.”
John Wesley.

I want to do that and more, daily.

Enjoy the day.

It’s Monday -

“It’s a week of reset, Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner. There’s a lot to be done in 2027 in the horse and race car business. Not time to shut down, time to make the lists and check them twice.”

Retirement isn’t happening as I’ve said before and isn’t planned, there’s still too much that I love to do that is left to be done….onward.

Enjoy the day.

@nascargirl0197 @KyleLarsonRacin @NASCAR @DanielsCliff @TeamHendrick Thanks for sharing your opinion-I respect that.

.@KyleLarsonRacin is one of the very best to strap into one of these @NASCAR things.

@DanielsCliff is one of the best Crew Chiefs, leaders and mentors.

Mr H @TeamHendrick is one of the best in spotting talent and putting them together on a team.

Congratulations also @JeffGordonWeb and #ChadKnaus I know we are still racing BUT dang this is so very impressive….

My two cents,

It’s Sunday -

“It is, I think, that we are all so alone in what lies deepest in our souls, so unable to find the words, and perhaps the courage to speak with unlocked hearts, that we don't know at all that it is the same with others.”
Sheldon Vanauken, (A Severe Mercy)

So deep and yet so true.

We share so much in common with one another, good or bad.

Enjoy the day.
