It is a nice little track, but when your house was walking distance from Saratoga and now Colonial is your best option, it's just not the same!

What is unusual about Colonial's building is that it looks like it will seat thousands comfortably, but it has the most pedestrian "clubhouse" seating outside.

Part of my attraction to the place is staying in Richmond, which is a neat southern city.


As a City, I enjoy Richmond significantly more than Saratoga.
