Speed Week 2024 at the Bonneville Salt Flats
UtahFriday, August 23, 2024
There is no place more magical then the Bonneville Salt Flats. It's one of my favorite places to take photographs not just because of the scenery but the amazing people I get to meet. This year was by far one of my favorite trips out there. I headed out to the salt on Thursday with my gal Sweet as Candie stopping in Las Vegas to pickup our friends Brettie Page and Chelsea La Vone. We made the journey along the back roads stopping in Ely, Nevada for the night and meeting up with our friends from Mackey's Hot Rods and Hola Neighbor. We headed out early Friday morning for the last 2 hour road trip to the salt. It was so good to be back. Friday night we took in the pre party at the Nugget and set up shop with the new 2025 Calendars in hand. It was finally race day and the lines were the longest I've seen in years for racers both on the long and short track. After a couple years of rain the salt looked better than ever. It was a great weekend of racing and celebrating with friends. Saturday night we hosted a party at the bend with our friends Mackey's Hot Rods along with a live performances from Hola Neighbor and Chelsea La Vone. Sunday's adventures continued as we said goodbye to our friends Brettie, Chelsea and Mackey and welcomed our gal Lola LaBamba to the salt. Our adventures continued thru Wednesday on the salt as we ventured off meeting so many new people we now call friends. It's never easy saying goodbye. It's a special place you need to visit at least once in your life. What happens after that is usually called salt fever.
