I was just looking at the NHRA schedule. I knew they had moved The Winternationals to April and recently wrote Phx off completely, they moved Vegas to April also. If Vegas spring weather is similar to the spring weather in the Mojave, that might prove to be a real challenge. "Sorry folks, eliminations are postponed until we can see the end of the track. There's too much dust blowing."

But will make it a fun ride...
That stuff was quite the target hatred a few years ago in San Gabriel Valley. Their processing plant was right in the middle of Irwindale I think it was. It seems the fumes from it's production were causing things like burning eyes and asthma attacks and all sorts of respiratory maladies to the residents down wind of the plant.
So the city bought them out and sold them a facility for $1 on the edge of town. LOL
All back read, that is 30 minutes that I will never get back.....Morning all....
But worth every minute. No humility now. 
Monday part 3 here....
Good Morning

Irwindale is an odd place to begin with. It's built in the middle of a huge sand wash. When I was young there were 6 rock and sand plants within 3 -4 miles of each other. One of which was the top producing plant in the US.
We had a bakery downtown for almost 100 years. Now that's a odor you can like. Wonder Bread moved out and the facility got turned into a microbrewery. It still smells like grain and yeast but a different smell. LOL

The farmers used to grow a lot of sugar beets here in the valley, fittingly Union Sugar built a processing plant west of town. The prevailing winds come off the beach to the west. When beet season came around it smelled like baked potatoes all over town
Perfect. Quaker OAts is in Cedar Rapids a hour south. It always smells like a bowl of oatmeal when you drive through town. Better than a rendering plant. or a hog confinement unit. LOL (we have a lot of those here.)The farmers used to grow a lot of sugar beets here in the valley, fittingly Union Sugar built a processing plant west of town.

How about Gilroy? The smell??The farmers used to grow a lot of sugar beets here in the valley, fittingly Union Sugar built a processing plant west of town. The prevailing winds come off the beach to the west. When beet season came around it smelled like baked potatoes all over town
Arbegast and Bastian hog processing used to be in Allentown. That was nasty smelling.
This is cool. Have never seen this photo before.
It’s a sad, sad day for our Country today.
So I’m thinking about how Rami sold out and moved. I’m thinking of doing the same thing. Move to that Montana mountain top.
