Resort Livin'

From the outside, most people see the NASCAR life as glamorous. And sometimes it can be. But for the most part it consists of long days at the race track, a ton of traveling, most nights spent at hotels, and a lot of hard work. But for those of us who choose to work in the sport - we love it. Weekends like this one make it even better, though. We are staying at Split Rock Resort on Lake Harmony, which is only 7 miles from Pocono Raceway. Amid the scenery and wildlife, you almost forget how close you are to the track. You can see why this is such a popular honeymoon destination. There are deer everywhere - and you have to be careful driving down the windy roads not to hit one! Two people from the team have even seen a bear cub.

Today when the Cup garage closes at 2:00 pm, the team will get to take advantage of a rare free afternoon and enjoy the outdoors. Of course the fact that both Red Bull cars are in tomorrow's race makes it all the more enjoyable!
