yep we decided to go to the races hahaah one of those things that wasn't really on a bucket list but someting we hadn't done anyway at a big track...so off we went...got htere on time but we sure didn't expect that there would be maybe 75-100 thousand of people there...when we got there we just looked at each other and said what have we gotten ourselves into...we bought an general admissions ticket which gave us standing room near the winners circle...we had NO idea how to bet on anything..so we bought a book and pciked by names..on the first race we decidedc to place a bet on 2 diferent horses one lar picked and the other i did..so when i looked at my ticket it wasn't what i thought i wanted...i guess i said the wrong thing..so we thought oh well a learning experience well i won and big 2.80....so much for that...we spent our 20.00 we hadplanned to spent and of course we wer close several times but NO more winners..we had fun but are we ready to do it again NO...not right away...it is one of those things been there done that..
we have now made our way to just over the border into PA on our way to go visit lar's mom who had a birthday last week and turned 93...
today was a day of yucky weather it rained all night and we took donw in it then it started to really rain and hard so all day we drove in some very heacy rain...then we needed fuel and there were several stations that didn't have diesel or they pumps were hard to get too..especially when the overhang was just 12 ft and we would have taken down the overhang ugh...but we did get fuel and got one or way..
we have been without wi-fi fkor several days and not sure about getting it at lar's mom unless we go to mcdonalds ahahhahaha...so all's well and we are high and dry right now...
