What a great layout, Fran! It's beautifully designed. And I love that he raced in full clown make-up!!! (I bet you and he make such a great pair!!!) I also love that you included his poem, too. This is such a special page for so many reasons!!!!!
Oh, this is great! Such great family history. My Mom and Dad were stock car fans-Richard Petty, Bobby Allison, Cale Yarborough and that era. You probably know them!
This is one great story and well worth the read. The photos are wonderful and the piece "Stock Car Racing: Thoughts from a Fan" was a wonderful addition. Nostalgic, even sad. Did your Joe pen that? But you did a fantastic job on this, Thoroughly enjoyed! TFS
This is such a fun layout. I love those photos. The balloons and published poem are the perfect touches. (I have the same photos set aside to scrap myself some day.)
For 15 years, we spent our summer vacations camping in Canada and the U.S., while traveling to many different race tracks. My husband won 3 Track Championships and was president of the Mini Stock Association for a number of years. He enjoyed writing articles and created this poem (at right) which was published, and is now online. This page shows him racing in full clown face makeup, while children in the pits followed him asking, "Hey mister, where is the parade?" His sense of humour always shines through.
Thanks to all who leave a comment for me; much appreciated!
