Beautiful Manor Downs


It's well known - but not well documented - that I enjoy an occasional jaunt to the track to bet on the horses. This past weekend I went to our beloved Manor Downs, which is also the site of some Grateful Dead concerts from back in the 80's. I actually went to a Dead concert there but for some reason the whole experience is kind of foggy. After all, it was a long time ago... and what a long, strange trip that was.

Anyway, I went to the track Sunday and had a chicken fajita taco (advertised as a new menu item!) and a Pepsi. The Pepsi was good. Stay away from the chicken fajita tacos.

I take it by the fact that you are talking about fajitas and not money that you didnt win big.

I actually won money, but did not want to make that the subject of the post. I used Karl's 2-4-7 combo and hit a $77 exacta and the trifecta for $224! A very good day at the track, actually. Those bets cost me $18, and although I made several other $12 to $18 bets that lost, I still won quite a bit overall.
