Nascar Daddy!

This past weekend my pops came into town, which only happens once every 3 months or so since he took a job working for Nascar. He is head of the Busch Series and has to be present at every race. And since the Busch series didn't have a race this weekend he was able to come home. He never has enough time to do everything he wants because my sister and I are always saying there is something wrong with a car, the garage, the washer, paint on the walls... just never ending for my fix-it-dad! When I got into town I told him that the mustang was making a grinding nose when I brake, so we went for a drive and he said it was my brakes indeed and they would need to new pads on them before I went back to Columbus(especially since gas is $2.59 and my Jeep is a gas HOG, so I don't drive it, but keep it because it's my #1 baby)! Sunday morning I heard him on the phone calling around to get brake pads and he left to go pick them up and I went to brunch with my mom, Pam, and the lovely Downey's! I came back to help him finish up and found that it was basically metal rubbing on metal. Yikes! But, I can always count on my papa to fix whatever is wrong! We then had to take it for a test drive to make sure everything is good, and it purrs again! The next time he is home, he will be putting new tires on my Jeep! Gotta love DADS!!!
