    That's wrong on an infinite number of levels.

    Three nuns huh.

    Got it!
    Here’s a joke about three nuns.

    Three nuns walk into a bar….
    The bouncer stops them on their way in and says “Alright sisters, before you go in I’ll have to ask you some questions.” The nuns agreed and the bouncer asked the first nun

    “Who was the first Male on earth?”

    The nun responded with “Adam!” And was allowed into the bar.

    The second nun was asked “What animal convinced Eve to defy God?”

    The nun answered “a serpent!” And was allowed in.

    For the final nun the bouncer asked “What was the first thing Eve said to Adam when they met?”

    The nun confused said “That’s a hard one!” And was allowed into the bar.

    Beats Braille on the OEM toggle. Hard to get a level forefinger in here, especially in the dark...

    Those days are gone forever. Like the small town dirt tracks... Graded loop on a clay field, sunken worn out tires (car size) around the outer fringe for you to stand behind or lean on while they are in the other side... Slat shack with drinks and snacks, half mile of 60 watt bulbs strung on the electric co op's poles.
    On the higher speed tracks, used sunken tractor tires as railing... Safety plan was commensurate with track speed....
    Drive 130 miles from West Point, MS to W. Memphis, AR track.. Sit in a grandstand (small) and sip "Salty Dogs" to enhance the race experience.
    This was just before dog racing in W. Mphs.

    In it's heyday, you came over the bridge at night and saw a great lighted haze up to your right. Based on the idea of all the activity underneath causing it, I never wanted to venture closer. I guessed it was the parking lot movement, in/out or something.
    @Judge, you recall pre I55 when AR scales was a coop on the levee you topped, he stuck your tanks with a coat hanger, you paid fuel tax in cash, and pulled off onto Broadway to head SLooie. Not aging you but that landscape was vastly different pre I55 and I40.

    It would be enough FUN just walking that "trail", with/without high winds with/without Ice and/or Snow.
    Bestest FUN would be had at Night, with a faltering Light. o_O:eek:
