The following few days are going to be like time-lapse photography.
Driving past the NASCAR stadium in Dover today I noticed the first two of what will ultimately be several dozen event tents on the fairgrounds. The first of the campers and motor homes had rolled in as well - folks determined to claim a spot neither too far from nor to close to the port-o-potty's.
Tomorrow there will be ten tents and fifty-some vehicles.
Wednesday another exponential jump - and so on.
Until, on Saturday, an entire "shantytown" will have overrun the normally empty hundreds of acres.
An entire town - in a single week. Like watching a flower go from seed to full bloom in a single National Geographic episode.
