Lookin' for a 5

Rose wisely said one night at the family dinner, that when you are on the right quest, the resources for the journey will always come your way. I can say I have experienced this reality.

I have had a 33 year itch to race a car made just for racing. To own a small racing program that was respected by my peers.

Lately I have been wondering where those resources are.

Over these last few married years, dreaming about such a venture has been kindled.
And a lot of energy devoted to the possibilities. Priorities exposed. Fears raw.

She is not sure this is what I need to be doing. But I am finding so many signs that maybe it is.
And the two shall become one.

Funding is key to the quest. Second mortgage is out. Simple life is in. So sponsorship will deliever the goods.

Enter Laser Monks. A business with a cause. The cause I am all for. The Vintage drag racing community needs this.
Spirituality. Community. Healing. Feeding the poor.

I have found a complete package. Fair price. Good people. Unique operation.
So what's the problem?
It doesn't matter what you do, as long as you do it together.

So I again wrote Fr. McCoy about considering my proposal. That was last night. At that time there was a 4 on my little mail icon. There is still a 4.
Maybe he is out of town?

He has never said no. Am I missing the clues? Are there even any clues?

And there has been also great new contacts other arenas of my quest. Will take 'em slow. Let them bud.

Not complaining. Just sharing. Stories are great, when you are watching them unfold. It is tough to be in the folds.

Just lookin' for a 5

I watched the short video on the Lazer Monk's website. What a great story. Hope they will take part of your vision.

The NHRA Nationals are in Brainerd Aug. 11- 14. You've got free room and board and a budding enthusiast for a chauffeur in MN.

I resist anything but temptation. I will consider it.

Laser Monks has been on my mind for quite sometime. There are rumblings on more than a few levels. Jennifer doesn't see me in a race car just now. Drag racing as a fan and even as a part of a film short she is great with. So we wait. Actively wait.

Maybe now Jennifer can see you in a race car?

I cannot get the link to go the picture, but I can get to the flickr home page. What should I search for. My destiny is hanging in the balance, waiting for a shove
