Pretty City Sweets n' Things: I've come a long ways from ballet and opera!

A little random fact about Seth is that he practically grew up going to drag races every weekend. For the first 20 year or so of Seth's life his dad drag raced and from what I hear he was excellent at it. They owned cars and trailers and it was a major part of their life. To this day every time Seth talks about those days he gets a little giddy and excited.

A good friend of the Baltzell family still races and was celebrating his 50th birthday on July 5th. His wife threw him a surprise party at the race track and invited a few of their close friends. We went and despite all of my "drag racing" reservations, we had a blast. Believe it or not, the entire weekend of the 4th was so cool at night that I had to wear a hoodie. Our friend actually ended up winning that night out of a ton of cars. Everyone around knows that I'm a city girl and I was asked several times that night how I was liking it... all I could say was that I've come a very long ways from Ballet and Opera!
