Let me know.

Any suggestions on where/when we should get together at the Wood. Based on weather forecast, I am thinking we should shoot for indoors.

I would suggest Man 'O War Room. Maybe 1/2 hour before first Post, or between two of the earlier races.

What do you think?
We're driving down from Albany so I'm not sure if we will make it there in time for first post...between two of the earlier races would probably be easiest.

No offense pointman, but my Brother-In-Law is also a bit of a late sleeper, so that's probably a good idea anyway.

So, in between races it is...

First post is 1PM, so I would assume around 1:30.

Thanks! Any idea which two races you'd want to meet up between? (1st & 2nd or 2nd & 3rd?)

I wish this awful weather that came in overnight would somehow miraculously move out but I don't think we'll be so lucky.

Want to say after the 3rd race, 2PM or so?

Late enough for folks in Equestris to hit the buffet and maybe still before some of the Crowd.

If anyone wants to do later, that is certainly fine as well.

Default Snow Saturday???

Un-f-ing believable: Possible lows in the 20's. I'm staying home or heading to the Race Palace on Long Island to watch the races now.

The forecast for Saturday is not that bad, high of 46 and cloudy. Anyway, just do what I will do, stay inside. It isn't like Aqueduct will be overflowing with people.
