Default No longer a Spa virgin

Many thanks to all who gave advice on my first visit. My wife and I had an unbelievable day for the Jim Dandy. Went to watch workouts and breakfast. Walked the whole place and was amazed. Visited the museum and was very impressed. Lost a hundred at the window, a hundred more at hat shop, one more at the food booth, and about $75 at the beer tent. Best money I have spent at the track in a long time.

It did take me a while to adjust to knowledgeable and friendly tellers, clean floors, fresh paint on the walls, helpful personnel around the track, nice atmosphere with courteous fans, good food and drink, and a lack of urine running down the bathroom floor.

For the ones who have been there you know what I am talking about. For the ones who haven't gone make plans now.
