This is Liz, Mark's wife... I wanted to write a little bit on my Pop, Ray Castaneda. Sometimes I think my Dad still thinks he's as young as us. Within a 16 hour time period, my Dad, who is 74, drove solo over 500 miles round trip to support Mark and I at the VLV Car Show.
My Dad left Murrieta, CA at 3:30 a.m., arrived in Las Vegas, NV at 8:30 a.m., visited us at the Joyrides booth, walked the Viva car show, had a hot dog with me, purchased an old school hat he had been looking for, gambled $300 on slots then called me and said he was leaving so he'd get home before dark. He left Vegas at 3:30 p.m. and was back home in Murrieta, CA at 8:30 p.m. Now that is just absolute craziness! It was as if he roared in like one of the hot rods and in a puff of smoke, he was gone! Now that's true love for me his daughter to make a day run to Vegas. I hope I have that much endurance when I'm 74....actually I know I will, it's in my genes. Thanks Pop for the visit and the beer, you rule.
