Winning jockey Ashley Dill gets a high five from a fan:


Can't remember the horse's name, but I cashed in a $2 ticket on him. After the race, all family present crowded into the winner's circle for the official picture. It was a HUGE crowd of Gatewoods and Smiths. Kris is working on making the JT Smith Memorial an annual race. (Shirley, this coud be your chance to get into a race photo.) I hadn't been to Horsemens Park before - we had a fun day. I started with $10,bought a $2 ticket on every race and came home with $9.60. Not bad, huh?

Road trip

On the road to Omaha Just beyond the top of that hill we encountered a big rainstorm with a rainbow across the road in front of us.
