Speedway & Coke

I have lived in Indianapolis for five months now, but tonight I got my first glimpse of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It's the only thing most folks know about Indy, and it's about the only thing around here I hadn't seen.

IT IS HUGE.

I cannot imagine having to walk from one end of the bleachers to the other. Really, it is enormous.

After my viewing of the speedway, I got to speak at a Coca Cola bottling plant. So cool. I felt like a little kid as I excitedly watched the assembly line, open mouthed. The workers must have thought I was ridiculous, but it was something like seeing how Crayola molds their crayons. It's a simple process, but fascinating to watch. I wanted to go on a tour, but apparently OSHAA restrictions no longer allow that. I'll have to just be satisfied with the jaunt I took through the warehouse this afternoon. Tonight, I'll dream of Diet Coke.
