Down at the Track


I took Jason with me to the Company Picnic at Arlington Park. We had to park far in the back of the lot, and walk literally halfway around the outer edge of the track, passed people in "preferred" parking looking down their noses at us, to get to the right tent. The food was pretty good though, and while I'm not much for betting (and didn't win anything with the company's $2 vouchers), it was kind of neat to watch the horses sprint by us. Unlike the other kids there, Jason remembered to bring some toys, since it's pretty boring between races if you're not trying to place bets. He had a good time, which let me relax and enjoy myself too. Thanks to Archelon (my employer) for arranging this event.
