There was a little water in the bottom of the Perdenales yesterday. Still a long way from floating the boats though.
I was surprised this week. Had to go out to Odessa and actually had a good rain there! Maybe eventually the Perdenales will get some. Didn’t see any wet when I went through Colorado City so don’t think anything’s headed downstream from that way.
Lap 149 — Kurt Busch has had to pit with a flat tire. Meanwhile, up front, Tony Stewart has opened up a little bit of ground on second-place Jimmie Johnson.

Got distracted here, did Harvick get his jock strap untwisted?
We need a restart just for our fun.
