You can watch me run around the track. Though, I doubt I could beat the horses.
My nickname is Seabiscuit. :0) I ran a 5k this summer and placed first in my age division. It was my first 5k. All of the other women in my division were taller than me too. Hence, the name Seabiscuit.

My dad's side of the family is from Lexington, KY. Big horse country. My aunt has several horses. (not race horses) My mom was really into horses too (she's been thrown a couple of times). I've been on one horse. Didn't much like it. Horses are big, beautiful animals, but they have a mind of their own. That's what scares me. LOL

If I were to ever visit southern CA, I would first take in the beach. Then, after much beach time, you may be able to drag me to a race. :)

I would love to visit the haunted highway in northern CA. I know that has nothing to do with horse races, but I just thought I would mention it.

take care,

rj

Ohhhh Pam! Sheila and I have been going to the horse races forever. We love the handy capping and learning all about our favorite tracks. We have the Horse racing channel and we can place bets over the internet with our account. We go to the track when we can. We have two tracks here and one in Cinci., Ohio.
When we do off track wagering from our computers we just down load all the paper work and print it the night before the races.
But I must admit, there is nothing like being there in person.
You can learn about the jocky's, trainers, breeders, and horses pasts in the different wagering pages. It is important to know all those things. We just cannot get enough of it. I know how excited you are.
So good to meet a fellow horse racing lover.
Hugs,
Laurie

rj, I want to visit the haunted highway too.
I went with a group of ghost hunters one night for an article I had to do for the paper. It was so cool and exciting.
They have equipment etc. We picked up some weird stuff.
Hugs,
Laurie

It's easy to get carried away with the gambling.

Ghost stories and such scare and intrigue me! I've also always wanted to visit New Orleans for that reason. Take a scary vacation! LOL

Thanks for answering my ibook question.

take care,
