The Allstate 400 at the Brickyard

These were taken at about 11:30 today on 465. The Brickyard 400 (no, the Allstate 400 at the Brickyard this year) started at 1:30 or so, and traffic in the northbound lanes was backed up for miles. My southbound lane was wide open. Somehow I've managed to work on all three race days this year: the Indianapolis 500, the F1 U.S. Grand Prix, and now the Brickyard. I hate working Sundays anyway, but it just worked out that way this year.

This morning's fast and testimony meeting seemed to be very focused on families, and enduring family relationships, and the long term blessings that the gospel brings to families. I bore my testimony. I spoke about how much the gospel changed Dad's life. He was not anyone I would have approached to share the gospel with, but the Lord made sure that Dad had the chance to be converted, and I am so grateful he was. If Dad had not joined the church, I would not have ever met Shawna or had the children that I have. My life would have been completely different.
