An expensive but incredible valentine gift I once gave my husband

by Rose Marie

My husband is an avid NASCAR fan. His world revolves around the Daytona 500. He never dreamed that he would be able to go to a race, and well I never really thought it would happen either. The Daytona 500 always falls around Valentines, and one year it was the day before. So I got brave and started researching prices and options. I got lucky and was able to rent a camper and found tickets that were not that expensive. The weekend before I just told him we were leaving on Wednesday to go away for the weekend. What a shock he got when we pulled into Daytona. What a bigger shock when he opened the card, while looking at the track with our tickets for the race. He has never forgotten it, and well neither have I. I have also never been able to top it.
