A day at the races

Before traveling to New York this fall we compiled a list of things to do and places to visit with the girls. Near the top of the list was to take the girls to visit Saratoga Race Course.

Just a few miles from my childhood home and being one of the most iconic horse tracks in the country, I wanted them to experience a day at the races.

I don't think the poor statue of a jockey knew what to do when Emma came to town!

Papa and Emma checked out the jockeys as they mounted their horses before each race. 

But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God;
I trust in God’s unfailing love for ever and ever.

- Psalm 52:8
