|  Lloydobler back Weather was miserable again yesterday, so we put off until this morning going over to see Lloyd who is back at Gary's Oklahoma stables.   This year I think the frost will be on the pumpkin a bit early in the Saratoga environs - there's definitley a fall nip in the air. The horses love it, but a great many workers are bundled up like Eskimos. Lloyd looks very good, he's very happy, and he got a lovely pair of new shoes. God love him - he's a sweet, lovable clown. It's such a pleasure spending time with him. We've come to visit, LD  Do I see cookies?  Hey! Don't be feeding him cookies!  Finally, I get some cookies.

|   Great meeting up with you Unstable.  Hope your trip back to LA was efficient and trouble-free Lloyd (I affectionately refer to him as "The Mooch") on the Oklahoma surface this morning,

|   Back in his stall mooching for "cookies"  What's in the bag?  Please, please, please gimme what's in the bag before I unscrew my head.  I can look dignified if I'm given enough "cookies".  Actually, today was a bagful of carrots and apples. LD will eat anything.

 He just did a jog around the track. This was about 9 a.m., and it was a pretty warm day.
