Share A Coke

ShareACoke with Your Family

It’s The Little Things
A little moment from my morning.

Coca-Cola has a promotion going on right now for personalized coke bottles. Many people are finding a bottle with their name on it and tweeting pictures with the hashtag #ShareACoke.

Now I’m a Coke fan. Diet coke specifically. But I haven’t found a personalized bottle anywhere with my name on it. Not a Vicky, Vicki, or my spelling Vickie. Then I found out that you can order one for $5 at ShareACoke.com.

Ok that’s kewl. So I went there and ordered one for me and my boys (Daddy and our son <- my boys). And of course my favorite Coca-Cola Racing driver Tony Stewart.

Then I thought, wouldn’t it be kewl to have one with Springwolf on it? Now if I can’t find Vickie, of course Springwolf wasn’t going to be out in the world. But I discovered that Coke regulate what it will and will not put on the label. Smart move on the company’s part really. But you can make special requests. So I submitted Springwolf and waited to see if it would be approved. Continue reading

It’s The Little Things

Enjoy The Small Things In Life

Because the big things don’t come along that often. Sharing some personal excitement from my twitter account tonight. Last month we bought a pretty, albeit used, Ford Escape from our local dealer, Sheehy Ford. I’ve never owned a vehicle that wasn’t a Ford, so I’m sort of biased. But I love each and everyone I’ve had. And they’ve all been great and taken very good care of me.

Last week I had a hitch put on my little truck. And then I set out to find a hitch cover to keep it safe and sound when we’re not using it. And that cover came today. Although it did come in pieces.

@Springwolf  – 6:32pm · 28 May 2015
I’ve been doing manly mechanical stuff on my new(used) truck & its new hitch! It lights up! ‪#‎Ford‬ ‪#‎Escape‬ ‪#‎ImExcited‬
Ford Light Up Hitch

It was a pain in the butt to build the attachment piece. And truth be told, I did have to take it apart and reroute the wires properly. But I did it! And in time to pick up the Daddy person from the train tomorrow.

I’ll have to find out if I can get a small extension for the cord. It barely reaches and I think that’s probably a bad thing. we’ll see what I can do. Might be as simple as turning the attachment 45degrees. That means taking it apart…again. I’ve done it once, I can do it again!

Oh well, I’m happy and I can’t wait to go somewhere and show it off. That won’t be till tomorrow morning when I can balance the manly mechanical thing with some girly stuff. I’m getting my nails done for my birthday!

Decoration Day 2015

Thank you

Thank you

Memorial Day Weekend

Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in service of the United States of America. Waterloo N.Y. was officially declared the birthplace of Memorial Day by President Lyndon Johnson in May 1966, it’s difficult to prove conclusively the origins of the day.

Regardless of the exact date or location of its origins, one thing is clear – Memorial Day was borne out of the Civil War and a desire to honor our dead. It was officially proclaimed on 5 May 1868 by General John Logan, national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, in his General Order No. 11. “The 30th of May, 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers, or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village and hamlet churchyard in the land,” he proclaimed.

The date of Decoration Day, as he called it, was chosen because it wasn’t the anniversary of any particular battle.

Tony Stewart’s Plane

Dassault Falcon 50 N500TS-Tail Markings

Tony Stewart’s Dassault Falcon 50 N500TS-Tail Markings

NASCAR Flying

Today my 11-year-old told me about an idea he had for us to have a plane and commute to work by air. I made mention that if we had a plane, we would be using it to fly on vacation and probably going to the races around the country. I don’t think commuting to work would get much done. Well not in the kind of plane he was talking about.

Which brought up different kinds of planes, other than commercial planes, what they’re used for and who uses them. Which of course brought me to NASCAR. Hey, it’s what I do.

If you have a favorite race car driver you know most of them have a private plane to get around the country for business. Whither they’re flying to a race, back home again or to visit with Sponsors and their staff, race car drivers do a lot of traveling. Continue reading

Big Kudos To NASCAR

LetsGoRacingNASCAR Issues A Press Release

Yesterday I tweeted a comment to NASCAR about the “Religious Freedom” act issued in Indiana.

@NASCAR Should support Equality Rights in #Indiana; pull the Indy race and go to another Road Course instead!
— SpringWolf ❦ (@SpringWolf)
March 30, 2015

One of my friends asked me if I was trying to start-up trouble. Of course I was!

Today NASCAR issued their own press release on the matter.

Statement from NASCAR on Indiana legislation
March 31, 2015, Official NASCAR release, NASCAR.com
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (March 31, 2015) — “NASCAR is disappointed by the recent legislation passed in Indiana. We will not embrace nor participate in exclusion or intolerance.

Way to go NASCAR! So proud to be a fan of your sport!

Religious Freedom In Virginia

Do Your Own Research

Do Your Own Research

Religious Freedom vs. Rights of Conscience

Today’s News media has fallen short of being a reliable source for factual reporting over the past 3 decades. They’re more interested in spinning headlines that inflame and infuriate people, than reporting the complete facts, explaining in full what’s really going on and falling short in giving both sides of a story.

This past week as Indiana garnered great heat over a recently passed “Religious Freedom” act, the News Media has left out certain pieces of information that leads one to think Virginia has a similar modern religious freedom act in place. Say what?!

From watching the coverage, this was the impression I was given from watching the news on all the major networks. Even the Washington Post left out the full facts. In their reporting they conveyed the message that 19 other states have a “Religious Freedom” act, including my home state of Virginia.

I wanted to read the law and find out when it was put into place. So I went off to do my own research. Well color me surprised! That’s not really the case at all!
