  • Sandra's new pit lizard blog

    I've been meaning to get this up, since I've owned the domain for years.

    Now the blog is up, with the website coming soon, hopefully.



    At risk of being accused of trying to deify Jimmy - he was such a nice human being, being a god or a saint would be a step DOWN - I'd like to share some stories about him. I'd love it if you would drop by the blog and add your own favourite story about Jimmy or Ghost.

    Best....

        I've added an article to the blog, "The Plane That Wasn't There..."

        It's a great article about Jimmy Leeward and "Specter," written by Sylvia Sweeney, editor of the NAG RAG, October 1983. Thanks to Charlene Aro for sharing it with me.

              I'd love to be there! Unfortunately, I'll be attending a 3-day conference. But, I'll be sure to watch the live-streaming.

                Darn, I was hoping to see you. I know you'll be there in spirit.

                  Ran across this tonight and thought I'd share it.

                  I took it sitting on the nose of Sumthin' Else as we got ready for the line-up. Nice view, huh?

                      I think that's what's going to get all of us through this, you know? I still get hit with tears at the most unexplected times.

                            Surprisingly, a few of you actually notice what happens on my blog. Well, I'm in the process of migrating it to another server.



                            As part of that, I'm working on an events page and the updated photo gallery, including the ability to order prints straight from the site, run an auction on the site, and making it possible to donate to the Family Assistance Fund on my site as well.

                            Essentially, one stop shopping!

                            In the meantime, please bear with me.

                            Thanks!

                            Sandra

                              Slowly but surely....

                              I've added an "Honour Roll" page. Having looked at it, I think I want to broaden it and add people that we loved that are now gone, though not necessarily at the races. Like Bob Love, John Crocker and others.

                              So I'm going to make some changes and I need some help with this. Please have a look, let me know what mistakes you see, help me fill in the blanks with things like race plane names if I don't have it.

                              And let me know who else you think should be added.
