Savannah,here we come!



So, we headed out Thursday night to Savannah for Track Day with Chris! We arrived around 0330am, checked in the hotel and got back up at 0630 and headed 10 minutes to Roebling Road Raceway! It was hot, but not as hot as Raleigh from what the IPhone said. Friday was a track day, so it was more for Chris to tune in the bike before VIR in 2 weeks. After two practice sessions he figured out that the back wheel is bent, making for a nasty shake coming out of the last turn onto the straight-a-way!
We left everything at the track and headed back to the hotel and everyone (except me) got in the pool for over an hour! I was too busy falling asleep sitting straight up in the chair. We headed in and slept for a few hours and then headed to the Riverfront to "A Lady & Sons" to eat. We had put our name on the list for the only opening they had for dinner. But when Lauren found out it was Paula Deens original restaurant, there was no way that I would have turned down ANY time slot they had available. We went to the Paula Deen Store first so Lauren could get ANYTHING with Paula Deen on it. And then we had the most wonderful dinner. The staff was great! Lauren chose the buffet and the rest of chose Chicken-Pot-Pie. Can we just say WOW! The Chicken Pot Pies were unbelievable! Even the couple eating beside us looked at our food with the weirdest faces! But oh the taste! It was the best Chicken Pot Pie I have EVER tasted. The sauce was UNBELIEVABLE! So much so that I told Lauren that she may turn me into a Paula Deen fan! I would definately make it a point if you are EVER in Savannah to go to A Lady & Sons and eat there! With our stomachs full and Lauren in heaven there was no time before we were all asleep
.
We got up early today to head back to Raleigh and aside from all the people who couldn't drive, we found out that the temperature got hotter the more North we drove and the gas was at $3.71 in SC. And of course we had to stop at South of the Border!
