That's the start of a longer story but the short version is that whenever I travel, I try to fit in a visit to a racetrack, especialy if I haven't been there before or if it's been several years. I try very hard.

Even after a lot of years of doing this, I still get the same great feeling walking into a track I've not seen and walking onto the apron and taking in the view. It's the same feeling as I remember having the first time I went to Tiger Stadium as a kid and saw the huge, green field.

This Saturday, I will be at Woodbine and I'm pretty excited. Haven't been there in 20+ years. Get there early, take a walk around the whole place and land somewhere for the races.

I really, really enjoy walking into a new race track. I'm thankful for that and much, much more.

Everyone travel safely and have a great Thanksgiving.
STS, Thanks for the post...I thought I was the only one.. Going to Chicago in December, wife is making plans to see this and that...and I am emailing Mark Janickovic at Hawthorne, getting directions and reservations.. Question: For anybody here from Chicago...can you take a train to Hawthorne from downtown...or is it better just to take a taxi?
