FINCHBURG County

Skipper sees Uncle Jesse coming. "Hi Jesse!" (Waves at him.) "Good race ain't it?"

Before you know it Jesse had caught up with the pack and was in the thick of everything. Being on a dirt bike certainly had its advantages because he was able to use the bike's maneuverability and his skill to weave between everybody and take advantage of all the chaos. And chaos it was indeed. The lead changes continued on a regular basis but the best place Jesse had been in was third. But then he accidently hit neutral when shifting from 5th to 6th after rounding a curve and that put him back to 5th in this tight race. Still, at this point it seemed like just about anybody had a chance to win. He was just happy to be in the thick of things. But he wasn't here to finish in anything but first. A new determination overtook him and he let out a rebel yell and turned the throttle as far as it would go again. The front wheel went off the ground again. He felt like a young man racing a half century ago. He felt like nothing could stop him now as he approached Skipper and prepared to pass on his starboard side.

Still hard to believe. Reminds me of how shocking Dale's death was. Different manner of death of course but the shock value is just as high.

Skipper is coming up on everyone fast. He's determined to win this thing. If he wins, the prize money will help him buy his new boat MINNOW II. He holds his 1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT 500 steady as he gains ground on everyone else. "Hello Garrett, Jesse, Hobie" he yells as he passes them up.

Hobie takes another sip of shine ( you never waste a sip!) LOL! , and he passes everybody with his specially formulated super charged shine .....everybody except Meadow and Daisy ( He's too busy looking at them.....!! ) and then he sees he's going to have to really get it in gear because Garrett and Roger have just about passed him! ( That's when Hobie realizes he should've paid more attention to those two in the locker room before the race.....they were obviously making plans and conspiring to beat him! )

Y'all beat me again with reporting NASCAR news. But I did find this video:

Feeling the freedom of no one in view, Garrett allows his car to slow a bit to give the powerful engine a rest a bit while resting back into his leather seat. He finally glances into his rear view mirror and his heart skips a beat as he sees Jesse's vehicle come across the curve and into view. Sitting up in his seat he presses the accelerator down forcefully the car jolts forward with increase speed. "Eat my dirt, Jesse," he says aloud with a confident smile.

You really don't

CARTER One of the bad guys from 'Enos in Trouble'.

LOL Good one Hoss!

She's a new celebrity crush on my list. 🥰

With newfound confidence Jesse passes Meadowmufn, who had stolen Rosco's sheriff's car and then Hoss. Hoss probably would be faster but his Formula 1 car is so low to the ground that it scrapes bottom a lot since the Hazzard roads aren't as smooth as F1 tracks. As he was passing him, Jesse thought to himself that Hoss would have a better chance next year if he installed a lift kit. A monster truck F1 car in the Moonshine 400 would be pretty cool. But there was nobody else in sight in front of him after those two passes. Where is Skipper, Garrett and Hobie he wondered. Hopefully they will be popping into view right after he straightened the next curve and flattened the next hill. The 2-stroke Yamaha was running in top form.

Wh Sepsis- a serious condition resulting from the presence of harmful microorganisms in the blood or other tissues and the body’s response to their presence, potentially leading to the malfunctioning of various organs, shock, and death. someone gets sepsis, it is a life-threatening condition caused by the body's extreme response to an infection. Symptoms may include fast breathing, fever, confusion, severe pain, and discolored skin. If not treated quickly, sepsis can lead to septic shock, organ failure, or death. Treatment for sepsis requires immediate hospitalization, where patients typically receive intravenous (IV) antibiotics and may need to be placed in the intensive care unit (ICU) for close monitoring and specialized care. Early treatment significantly improves the chances of survival.

He had pneumonia, which led to Sepsis and that's what he died of.

That's pretty good....the best thing about that though, was the hot babe singing......I'd give that face a 9....can't tell about anything else!

I'm outta reactions. ❤️

A few modern country songs are creeping onto the playlist of the mainly pop/rock radio station I listen to here in Ireland. Maybe Beyoncé's "Cowboy Carter" album got people looking for more traditional country artists. Morgan Wallen's "I'm the Problem" has been popular, and I see he's also got a duet with the artist below. The Smoky Mountains of Tennessee are mentioned in this song. Maybe if Ella had introduced her boyfriend to Cooter's Place in Pigeon Forge, he might've stayed! Ella Langley - Choosin' Texas There's also a longer version here.

I'm outta reactions. So ❤️.

From cootersplace.com: Our Smoky Mountain journey began in Gatlinburg back in 2002, where so many wonderful memories were made through the years. Later, we brought Cooter’s to nearby Pigeon Forge and continued building something very special with all of you. Now, after nearly a quarter century in the Smokies, we are preparing for our final season there. For the rest of this season, we’re planning a wonderful lineup of events, celebrations, reunions, stories, music, laughter, and memories with the people who helped make The Dukes of Hazzard such a lasting part of American pop culture. We are especially excited to welcome Catherine Bach, Tom Wopat, Byron Cherry, and Jeff Altman during this closing season, along with the wonderful staff here at Cooter’s who have loved and cared for our visitors through the years like family.

That says a mouthful right there! You NEVER know.......

Hobie finally sees his chance and he floors it and takes a big swig of his special shine! He's starting to feel it but that's ok....he's passed Meadow, Roger and somebody that....looked like Hoss?? Anyway, he isn't going to let Garrett's surprise move take him out of it! Hobie puts the heel to the steel and passes everybody....but...he's feeling it and starts coughing....and ....his allergies start acting up. He has just passed Garrett ( he owed the guy one for beating him last year! ) He doesn't know how much longer he can hold on to the lead, now that he's got it. ......
