Saturday June 11th 2011
Brother Larry has been on the road to recovery
& has been sick of just hanging around.
Tonight was the BELMONT STAKES in NY
so we went to the local race track to place some bets.

brother Larry —
we don’t come often so we never know
what we are doing when we are using
the machines to bet – we eventually
figure it out…..

we were liking this horse

before the race you get to see the horses –
this is when we figure out who we are
“voting” for — unless we’ve already figured
that out based on the horses name

jockey mounting? i guess that is what it is called?

dinner later……..
Nachos at Taco Suave –
we wanted something close by.
The food here is good but service is….
let’s just call it “interesting”….

fear must be a head thing.”
