A day at the horse races was my birthday gift to Hubby, we’ve attempted to go twice since December both times we were forced to reschedule due to blizzards. I was beginning to think we shouldn’t tempt fate by rescheduling before May. We crossed our fingers and made the two hour drive Sunday……
Hubby was a happy camper….
My mother and Son4 accompanied us……
Charles Town has options for loosing money…..
and gaining weight …..
Hubby enjoyed many visits to the food stations between races, while son4 provided commentary on the tie over the shoulder, napkin in collar look…..
We ventured outside several times to watch the horses warm up for their races…..
and the jockeys prepare…..
head out to the track……
and they’re off…..
For Mom and Hubby, handicapping is very serious business, we are “shushed” if we talk about anything other than horses……
We had some big winners……
and some that didn’t turn out so well….
A fun day was had by all.
