IT WAS HARDER THAN I THOUGHT
it would be to document and LIVE my vacation at the same time
as so I opted to
LIVE FIRST
Document later…
Now is Later….
Now is Later….
The first day of our Vacation was my Birthday and
as we OFTEN do on my birthday
because ON my birthday we are OFTEN
in New York
we went to SARATOGA to see the horses!
….as a Birthday Gift, my daughter played photographer
which for me who is always BEHIND the camera, not in front
It was wonderful to sit back and enjoy knowing my aging memory
will have photos down the line to jog it out of sleep.

My father in law has “connections” and so we are always on the
back stretch side…which I LOVE
with the riders and trainers and some owners
It is a bit more my speed, tad more casual
Phoebe…by me |
though I do love the other side, with the pretty hats and cocktails…
especially the cocktails…
bathing…
Mimi shows Cooper the stats…
strategizing….
watching….
napping….
There are many many more photos which I will put in an album on my facebook…
Thank you Phoebe!
It was WONDERFUL day!
I won $9!!!
and I was surrounded by my favorite people
at one of my favorite places…
Thank you to all of you who sent Birthday wishes…
I was feeling the LOVE!
I am Blessed in oh so many many ways…
and I am HAPPY to have Lived another glorious year!

What a fun way to spend your vacation! I have driven through Sarasota on my way to upstate NY but haven’t been able to stop and enjoy it yet! What a great spot and I’m dying to go to the horse races some day…sign me up for a $9 win…a win is a win!
Thanks Heather, you HAVE to stop in Saratoga, just walking around the little town is so fun! The track is like the icing on the very good cake!
