Today my parents celebrated a milestone, 50 years of marriage.

Rewind: It's Bristol Baby!

In late August I took a road trip to Bristol, TN with my friend, Don.  Now, I am not a big NASCAR fan. But, I have been told that if you can go to one race in the Sprint Cup circuit it is the night race at Bristol.  The race is run on a half mile oval known as "The Last Colosseum".  160,000 fans can view the race from any vantage point.  Bristol is fourth largest sports venue in the United States and the eighth largest in the world.

When we arrived in Bristol early Saturday afternoon, I experienced NASCAR culture for the first time. It is a unique culture.
