Today is Saturday – Whitney Stakes Day – so there will be a huge crowd. I lost on Wednesday and Thursday but won on Friday, so gambling continues to go well. We have totally avoided rain until today. It’s drizzling this morning, but it should be dry most of the day after about 11 AM.
My friends John & Lino from Marshfield have arrived. We had dinner last night at the Brook Tavern. Ed the Pharmacist from Connecticut and Mike “Mut” Mutnansky are also here. Mut does the Red Sox pre and post game shows on Boston’s WEEI radio. He’s on a four day vacation.
Here are some pictures from King’s Tavern, my longtime hangout across the street from the track, and elsewhere around the track.

Looks like a fun place! It’s our Saturday afternoon so guess you are headed to track now for the Whitney. Good luck. Cheers from Athens!!
You must be happy with the “gang” back now. The Tavern looks like a busy place. Good luck today Joe, and no rain! Cindy
