A Day at the races


Posted by: Cal

Today was Cleo's first day at the horse races. I wanted to take Cleo to make sure she stays connected with her roots. I grew up around horses, and was probably on the back of one by the time I was Cleo's age. My grandpa owned racehorses when I was a kid, and I have fond memories of being at the track, betting on the horses and watching them win. All very Hemmingway-esque.

So we took Cleo today, vowing that we make this a regular thing. Here are some pictures.

Oh yeah, I ended the day doubling the money I walked in with on a horse named Rosieontop. One of my grandpa's horses was named Proud Rosie. No relation.
