Wishing everyone a Happy (and safe) 4th of July! 🙂 For those in certain Oklahoma city areas, AAA is offering their Tipsy Tow service for free once again. You can call them at (800) AAA-HELP or (800) 222-4357. So, there’s no excuse for anyone to drink and drive. 🙂

Wishing everyone a Happy Father’s Day, especially mine! Love you Dad! You’re the best! Yeah, I know, I’m recycling the same image I used the last four years LOL, but how could I not? After all, his name is also Dale Jr. 🙂
Wishing everyone a Happy Memorial Day for 2016! 🙂
