Occasionally Ben goes out of town to conferences but this
year he had one here! This was fun because he didn't have to travel but a
little hard because he was gone all day (14 hour days)- and, just to whine a
bit, Elizabeth and I were both sick! During these conferences he networks and
talks to people, goes and eats amazingly good food and they usually do some fun
activities.
This time they went to Unser, an indoor racing track; this is
comparable to adult bumper car's/go
carts. They are each in a car, with a
helmet (Ben said they had the option to wear a racing suit but it was soo hot),
and race around at high speeds (like 45 mph- which on an indoor track is pretty
fast). Ben said everyone did a couple
laps just racing against themselves to see who had the fastest times. Then the
top 10 fastest times did an actual race; Ben was in this race and said it was
so fun. He said it was cool to pass
people, bump people (but you aren't really supposed to) and feel the rush of a
race!
