Racing at Emerald Downs

First time ever I've been to a horse race. Nora, Arvin, Rick, Judy and I drove down to meet Nora's brother Paul and his wife Cathy at Emerald Downs. We got there very early so we spent time settling in at the table Paul and Cathy got for us all and eating the yummy food Nora brought. Finally the first race began at 4:30. We stayed for ten races and didn't get home until after midnight. (Hence this is a slight back blip being one hour into the Fourth of July as I post this.) We all had fun. It was crowded and noisy and fun. We made very small bets and nobody won or lost large amounts. I won't need to do that again for awhile. But it was fun for a day.
