Disclosure: I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Dover International Speedway.  I received complimentary tickets to facilitate my post and a promotional item to thank me for my participation at the conclusion of the program. My family is a NASCAR family so I happily took on this opportunity! Know that I only promote items, services and opportunities we use and enjoy! Read my disclosure policy here.

Besides the above photo, as part of my Photography Challenge: Over the Shoulder Perspective post, SOTD regular readers might not know that my family is into NASCAR. My husband, Derek, has been hosting a fantasy NASCAR league for the past few years, spending his Monday nights updating his mega spreadsheet, his Wednesdays talking strategy on his pick for the upcoming weekend and his weekends actually enjoying the race. Before little miss came along, we attended a few races together with friends and he went to even more with his crew.

We’ve sat on the infield of Pocono races.

Together we’ve met a slew of drivers, including Martin Truex Jr. at the Vegas track!

My brother-in-law, Frank, got a special hook up for that Vegas race where all four of us got “HOT” All-Access passes allowing us on pit lane before the race, in the garages during it and…

even got us a lap riding in the pace car as part of the pre-race activities! I’m in the back seat as we’re riding down pit lane before hitting the famous angled curves!

May 31st, however, we’re introducing this sport to smallest member of our family as Brielle will have her first ever NASCAR experience at Dover Speedway’s Monster Mile for the Fed Ex 400! Yes we’re bringing our then 21 month old to a NASACR race, especially after hearing about the family friendly initiatives at the Dover Speedway, including the new kids club called “Monster Mile Youth Nation.” This club is for race fans ages 14 and under, giving the little ones an opportunities to explore the sport of NASCAR. For $20 a year these young fans get a Free FanVision rental on one race weekend, free welcome gift (things like water bottle, merchandise coupon and diecast car), special VIP area at the Monster FunZone and exclusive access to race weekend activities.

Here we are in 2007 at Dover (where he’s supporting Martin Truex Jr’s then #1 number car and I’m obviously a Kasey Kahne #9 fan!) This year’s FedEx 400 race benefits Autism Speaks and includes a bunch of family friendly activities BEFORE the race even starts.  They’re holding concerts (Jerrod Niemann, Cassadee Pope and Thompson Square), have this Monster FunZone, and a FanZone, food and shopping for all your NASCAR merchandise, NASCAR driver Q&A and autograph sessions and picnic areas when it’s time to take a break.

Yes, while we have met a few drivers (including Dave Blaney at the Richmond race) and we have a bunch of the driver autographs, Derek’s never attended a Q&A session of one of the drivers. At this race, we’ll have a chance to sit in on one with Jimmie Johnson! Event attendees (even the general public) can also get  Trackside Access before the race where they can roam the frontstretch of the track and watch the teams as they up get ready for race day!

If you’d like to join us at this year’s race, you have two options. First is to check out the affordable ticket packages at Dover International Speedway. Or from now until May 7th, they’re running a special sweepstakes to WIN some of the most sought after passes that the Monster Mile has to offer.

To enter to win and learn about the whole prize package, GO HERE! Some highlights include:

  • A family four pack of tickets for the May 31st NASCAR Spring Cup Series race
  • Pit Passes
  • A guided tour of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series garage

Some highlights of what my yard produced this year Some highlights of what my yard produced this year:
🎃 Gourds - currently 42 harvested and drying, but tons more coming!
🌞 Yellow Roses - these 2 plants bloom at least 4 times in spring and summer!
🍅 Tomatoes - tons of Roma and Supersweet 100 breeds used for appetizers, sauces and salads. Happy to grow and to gift these away!
🧄 Garlic - planted last fall and harvested in June. Doing this again this October! Should I also do onions?
💜 Lavender - The bees love them. I missed the window to dry them but putting that on my list to try next year. Would you want a little satchel of lavender? 
🥒 Cucumbers - slice it up and add some sea salt. Yum!

Our group of 2 adults and 5 kids were hosted by TreeTopQuestPhilly and enjoyed a sunny Saturday exploring obstacles, climbing and ziplining and we'd highly recommend this park! 
.
Here some key details to know before you go:
- The staff is super knowledgable, friendly and patient with climbers of all abilities, but it is self paced where you are in control of your own equipment. 
- You attend an equipment fitting, safety instruction and practice course before you climb 
- Expect to spend the full 2.5 hours of your reservation and you likely won't need sunglasses in this shady spot
- Gloves are an optional purchase, but we didn't get them and no one got any blisters
- There are 4 levels of courses with Level 4 being for those 12+ only. It's HIGH but thrilling to those willing to check it out! 
- Porta potties and lockers are available at the check in area and there are plenty of benches and picnic tables to sit at in the park. Spectators are free to watch from below. 
.
PROMO CODE: Use code SPOTOFTEADESIGNS for 15% off your online ticket order to climb!

Cardstock pennant banner tip - create the separate Cardstock pennant banner tip - create the separate piece shown on the video and add it to the back of your pennant to help it hang more securely, hide the ribbon and not move as much when hung.

Special thanks to @wildercrafting who shared this tip YEARS ago, and I still use it when creating my simple banners.

If you're on a fence about creating a garden next If you're on a fence about creating a garden next year.... do it! While I personally don't eat everything we grow (not a pepper fan!), I do enjoy being outside, caring for the plants, and feeding friends and family!

You can start this fall with garlic! You start planting them in the fall, and you'll enjoy them by summer.
