Dan Wheldon's car being pushed to his pit box for testing.... Nose is lifted up so it won't be damaged during transport

Hideki Mutoh's car being towed off the track. Interesting how the tow strap system is integrated into the air scoop.

Since the snow has melted very quickly, I might as well go and see about a chore.
Very strong storms blew through here last Friday morning... and with the rain came water dripping all the way to my 2nd floor carpet.
Time to get up on the roof and see what's up.
I am really afraid of doing things like this. I have to get the job done, though.

The view looking north:
I went up on the roof with my neighbor. He wanted to use my ladder as well and see if he had any possible problems as well (He saw none - lucky him).
The view towards the culprit - fireplace chimney.
Looky here! That's a great big hole! Time to head on over to Home Depot and get some roofing patch/tar.
Attic vent and Furnace vent look ok.Notice the dents on top of the attic vent. Must have hailed mighty hard. No dents in my truck.
This stuff doesn't cover as much as I thought. There are so many gaps everywhere.
I better start filling every single hole that I find.
Well that's done. I've only got a little of the caulk-gun's tube left.
The wood board under this vent was wet. I better make sure the seal is ok.
I'll just wait and see..
Snowfall in Alabama
Just two hours later... and almost all of the snow is gone...
This is the best kind of snow, actually.
Get everyone's attention by being really pretty - then get the hell out before you start too many problems.
Snowfall in Alabama
In anticipation of a warmer spring - my Knockout Roses started budding the past week and a half. This will teach those roses. Nothing grows easily in my yard!
Snowfall in Alabama
Just a couple of inches.. but still makes a nice photo. The round tree in the upper left of the frame has already budded out with white flowers. Now they are covered in white snow...
Snowfall in Alabama
Well now... this is a rare sight. A little bit of snowfall in Alabama. In the hour since I have taken this photo, about 30% of the snow is gone... the ground is too warm anyway...
Really wet snow too. Good snowman/snowball material....
