The Driver Suit Blog-My Thoughts On Not Having to Do A My Thoughts On For A Month
By David G. Firestone
Starting next week, I will be taking a month long break from The Driver Suit Blog. I’ve got 4 Friday Features ready to go, but their will be no My Thoughts On, Paint Scheme Tracker, or Paint Scheme Grades for a month. I will do an article on The Route 66 Nationals, as always, but other than that, I don’t have to write for a month.
I’m getting paid vacation for a month from my real job, so I’m totally off duty. I live in the Chicago-land Area and there is so much stuff to do in the summer. I take my vacation in July to take full advantage of the summer in Chicago. I’m planning to go to a ribfest, and checking out museums. I’m gonna have a great time.
It’s gonna be weird for me not to have to do a My Thoughts On for a month. I’ll think of the topic during the weekend, and work on it over the course of a week, alongside the Friday Feature. So once that’s all done, I upload it. Sometimes I will preempt an article ready to go if a racing situation demands it. This doesn’t happen all that often, but when it does, I have to do a week’s worth of work in less than a day. I’m glad this doesn’t happen that often.
I will miss writing for The Driver Suit Blog, but I do need a break every once in a while. I will be back in August, ready to go. See you then!
