When Cody returned from Canada, he had a couple of days to recuperate, and then we headed off to Indianapolis. Cody has been working with the United States Automotive Club (USAC). He's worked about 4 races now. He travels to the site of the race (usually Indiana). Cody performs the tech work at the races. That is, as the kids finish they're races he records the weight of the winning cars. He also has to mark all of the engines with paint to seal them. At the conclusion of the entire competition, he inspects the engines of the 1st-3rd winners of each race to ensure that there are no illegal tweaks to the engines.
Since we had been daddyless for 12 days already, we weren't ready to go daddyless again. Thankfully, USAC was willing to allow Eli and I to accompany Cody. They paid for us to stay in a hotel for a few days. Eli and I went window shopping and hung out in the hotel room while Cody worked. Then on the last day we went to the races.

Sneaking in a quick "on the job" pic with Eli
Cody meets "Goliath." The man was so big, and so nice:)
Since kids raced, their engines weren't too loud and Eli took a nap
This is one of Cody's professor's child. They go to all the races:)
